Half‑Makeup‑Katana – Damascus Folded‑Steel Asymmetrical Half‑Makeup Daisho Katana‑Wakizashi Art‑Set
Product Introduction
The Half‑Makeup‑Katana is wabi‑sabi‑style asymmetrical half‑makeup artistic daisho set composed of main katana and coordinated companion wakizashi short sword. Differentiated from game‑IP daisho, dark‑fantasy wakizashi, dragon‑myth katana and other fully‑symmetrical decorative swords. This art‑focused collectible uses damascus folded‑steel for both blades, processed by traditional tsuchioki clay‑differential tempering to produce recognizable flowing gunome undulating hamon temper‑line. Unified‑theme open‑work half‑floral‑relief antiqued‑bronze alloy mounting hardware for both swords. Long katana adopts dusty‑rose moro‑hineri cotton ito tsuka with pale‑blush faux ray‑fish samekawa inner lining; matching wakizashi uses identical grip construction. Scabbards are solid hardwood finished in exclusive two‑tone asymmetrical maki‑e artistic lacquer, paired with dusty‑rose mixed‑braided sageo cords and unified antiqued‑bronze alloy hardware. Target buyers: wabi‑sabi asymmetrical‑japanese‑art daisho collectors, avant‑garde sword‑art hobbyists, distinctive accent‑style home decor and unique art‑theme gift‑giving.
Both katana and wakizashi blades are built with damascus folded‑steel and traditional tsuchioki clay‑differential temper‑treatment, forming visible flowing gunome undulating hamon. Long katana uses classic shinogi‑zukuri katana‑profile geometry without hi blood‑groove; companion wakizashi uses compact wakizashi‑style shinogi‑zukuri geometry. Both feature subtle embossed yokote dividing‑line, respective functional‑style kissaki tips and factory light‑sharp finish. Gunome hamon and delicate two‑tone asymmetrical maki‑e lacquer saya scratch easily; only static art‑theme display and photo‑shooting are permitted. Heavy chopping and violent impact must be strictly prohibited to protect the art‑daisho surface condition.
Matching unified‑half‑floral‑art mounting‑hardware set for daisho pair: open‑work half‑floral‑relief antiqued‑bronze alloy fittings for katana and wakizashi, round asymmetrical‑floral carved tsuba for each sword, coordinated fuchi & kashira, tiny half‑floral‑shape antiqued‑bronze alloy menuki ornaments, solid‑brass habaki and antiqued‑bronze alloy seppa washers. Long katana tsuka grip uses pale‑blush faux artificial ray‑fish samekawa inner lining wrapped with thick dusty‑rose moro‑hineri cotton ito; companion short wakizashi applies exactly the same grip material‑spec. Each scabbard is solid hardwood finished in exclusive two‑tone asymmetrical maki‑e artistic lacquer craft, fitted with matching antiqued‑bronze alloy koiguchi, kurikata and kojiri hardware; each sword includes dusty‑rose mixed‑braided sageo cord with antiqued‑bronze alloy clasp. Each sword uses two natural bamboo mekugi pegs for fully‑removable full‑tang assembly. Complete set gift bundle: asymmetrical‑art dual‑sword fabric storage carry bag, double‑sword wooden daisho‑display stand plus full sword‑maintenance‑tool kit. Custom half‑floral‑art‑mark blade‑engraving upgrade available for extra‑charge on single blade or whole daisho‑set.
