Ink‑Style‑Katana – T10 Clay‑Tempered Chinese Ink‑Wash Art Themed Samurai Sword
Product Introduction
The Ink‑Style‑Katana is oriental chinese ink‑wash art themed traditional collectible samurai katana, fully differentiated from botanical wakizashi, cosmic‑nebula katana, beast‑relief swords, european cavalry sabers and anime‑character replica swords. This east‑asian art‑oriented collectible features premium T10 high‑carbon steel blade with traditional tsuchioki clay‑differential‑tempering, elegant freehand‑style ink‑cloud decorative surface etching, full‑set hollow‑carved cloud‑motif antique‑bronze mounting hardware, genuine real‑fish‑skin samekawa tsuka inner lining wrapped with dark‑grey‑black mixed moro‑hineri cotton ito, and solid hardwood finished with special ink‑blot smudge‑effect lacquer saya. Target audiences include traditional nihonto collectors, chinese ink‑wash painting culture enthusiasts, oriental‑art‑theme interior‑decor and distinctive ink‑art‑style decorative‑gift buyers.
The blade adopts premium T10 high‑carbon steel with traditional tsuchioki clay‑differential temper‑treatment, generating natural suguha straight hamon temper‑line. Standard shinogi‑zukuri blade profile without blood‑groove hi, subtle embossed yokote dividing‑line, classic smooth‑style kissaki tip and factory light‑sharp finish. Ink‑cloud etching and polished blade surface scratch easily; only static home‑display and photo‑shooting are allowed. Heavy chopping and violent impact must be strictly prohibited to preserve oriental ink‑art themed collectible surface condition.
Complete mounting‑hardware set uses elaborate hollow‑carved cloud‑motif antique‑bronze‑effect fittings, open‑work cloud‑pattern round tsuba, matching‑pattern fuchi & kashira, tiny cloud‑shape antique‑bronze menuki ornaments and antique‑bronze finished solid‑brass habaki plus brass‑alloy seppa washers. Haichi‑shaped tsuka grip uses genuine real‑fish‑skin samekawa inner lining wrapped with thick dark‑grey‑black mixed‑thread moro‑hineri cotton ito. Scabbard is solid hardwood finished with exclusive ink‑blot smudge‑effect lacquer, fitted with antique‑bronze koiguchi, kurikata and kojiri end‑cap; matched thick dark‑grey‑black mixed‑thread braided sageo cord with antique‑bronze‑effect alloy clasp. Two natural bamboo mekugi pegs build fully‑removable full‑tang construction for regular blade anti‑rust maintenance. Premium gift box, fabric sword‑storage bag, wooden sword‑stand and sword‑maintenance‑kit are included as full free‑gift set; custom chinese ink‑art‑mark blade‑engraving upgrade available for extra charge.
