The Kokuryū Wakizashi 黒竜 is a striking blade that embodies the spirit of the legendary Black Dragon. Forged in T10 steel with a visible hamon, it combines resilience and elegance in a compact format.
Blade: Made of T10 steel, the polished surface and the hamon reflect precision craftsmanship and impressive efficiency.
Guard (Tsuba 鍔): The copper tsuba is engraved with spectacular dragon and samurai motifs, symbolising strength and protection.
Scabbard (Saya 鞘): Lacquered black and adorned with gilded dragon engravings, the saya reinforces both the aesthetics and the mythical aura of the wakizashi.
Handle (Tsuka 柄): Wrapped in brown cord over ray skin, the tsuka offers a traditional, secure grip.
Dimensions: With an overall length of 78 cm, including a 52 cm blade, the Kokuryū Wakizashi strikes a perfect balance between agility and power.
Compact, elegant and impressive, the Kokuryū Wakizashi 黒竜 is an exceptional choice for collectors and martial arts practitioners looking for a blade that embodies legend and Japanese craftsmanship.
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.
