The Katana Tsuyo 強 is a tribute to strength of spirit and determination.

Blade (刀身): Forged in T10 carbon steel, the grey blade of this katana evokes resilience and tenacity. The subtle nuances of the forging recall the calm but firm determination of the swordsman.

Guard (tsuba 鍔): The solid brass guard is sculpted with a precision that reflects centuries-old craft skills. Its delicate motifs are more than simple protection; they tell a story of bravery and finesse.

Scabbard (saya 鞘): The solid black lacquered wood saya speaks of understated refinement. It makes a striking contrast with the blade, like shadow and light, balancing aesthetics with mystery.

Handle (tsuka 柄): The solid wood handle is wrapped in black rayskin leather that promises a firm grip. The diamond-shaped wrapping details add both comfort and elegance, while the black sageo completes the whole.

The Katana Tsuyo 強 is not only an exceptional object but also a companion for those with unshakeable willpower. Its look is that of a timeless classic, designed to match the inner strength and perseverance of its owner.

Buying a sword in the UK

Sold only to adults aged 18 and over. Curved swords with a blade of 50 cm or more are hand-forged using traditional methods, as required by the Criminal Justice Act 1988 (Offensive Weapons) Order as amended in 2008.

Carrying a bladed article in a public place without good reason is an offence. Transport your sword wrapped, and only for a legitimate purpose (dojo, re-enactment, collection). Rules may differ in Scotland.

Care

Wipe the blade after every handling with a soft cloth; never touch it with bare fingers.
Apply a thin film of oil every few weeks to prevent rust.
Store it horizontally in its saya, edge up, away from damp.
Use only on suitable practice targets (rolled tatami mats, bamboo); never strike hard objects.

Very good quality overall. A tiny flaw on the scabbard but it doesn't bother me.
