Handmade Sword
Musashi Katana - 1060 High Carbon Steel, Hand Forged, Full Tang, Battle Ready
SKU: 389
This Musashi Katana stays darker and calmer than the brighter red-saya models, with the black lacquered saya setting the first impression. The 1060 carbon steel blade gives it a different material step from 1045 versions, while the Musashi tsuba detail and bo-hi / fuller add enough visual structure without making the sword look overly decorated.
