Handmade Sword
Yellow Bamboo Katana β 1095 High Carbon Steel, Clay Tempered, Hand Forged, Full Tang, Battle Ready
SKU: 979
The natural wood saya and Iron Bamboo theme make this 1095 high carbon steel Katana a warmer alternative to black-saya premium pages, with bamboo detail as the main visual comparison point. This page reads as a natural-saya premium Katana rather than another dark lacquered model, so the hook calls out the warmer finish, bamboo direction, full Katana profile, and 1095 material group together. That distinction is important for buyers moving between black decorative saya pages and natural wood presentations. It also prevents this SKU from blending into the darker premium set, where material language alone would not explain the warmer visual direction or the natural-saya buying appeal for this Yellow Bamboo page and its bamboo-led identity clearly.
