Lobed Katana β 1045 Carbon Steel, Hand Forged, Full Tang, Battle Ready

This Lobed Katana has a lighter display look than the black-saya models because the white saya changes the whole outline on a stand. The lobed guard gives the fittings a softer shape, while the 1045 carbon steel blade and bo-hi / fuller keep the blade details easy to see.
