Handmade Sword
Crane Katana β 1045 Carbon Steel, Clay Tempered, Hand Forged, Full Tang, Battle Ready
SKU: 717
This Crane Katana takes a different visual direction through the green patterned saya, so it does not read like the white-saya crane versions. The copper crane fittings add the close-up accent, while the 1045 carbon steel blade, clay-tempered process, and bo-hi / fuller keep the material and blade layers clear.
