Product detailed description

Replica Katana Sword Midori no Yami – Emerald Darkness

The embodiment of strength, elegance, and precise craftsmanship inspired by the tradition of samurai swords.

The Replica Katana Sword Midori no Yami represents a perfect blend of aesthetics and functionality. Its clean lines pay homage to historical predecessors. The blade of this replica is hand-forged from T-10 carbon steel, renowned for its extreme hardness and ability to maintain a high edge. The distinctive hamon Chōji Midare, reminiscent of blooming clove flowers, is created through traditional differential hardening using clay.

The blade without a groove (bo-hi) was hand-polished with stone hazuya to achieve a high shine. Sori (curvature 2.0 cm) is designed for extremely clean cuts when tameshigiri (cutting tatami or bamboo). TheFull Tang construction (the blade passes through the entire handle) ensures stability and durability of the entire model.

The blade tip in shinogi-zukuri style with an extended long o kissaki features a true Diamond-Shaped Yokote. The hamon runs smoothly through the entire Boshi, which indicates a high level of craftsmanship.

• Material: Carbon steel T-10 (hardness of the blade approx. 58 HRC)
• Curvature style: Chūzori (center curvature for optimal balance)
• Processing: Hand-polished with hazuya stones, solid finish without bo-hi
