Melanitis‑Katana – T10‑Clay‑Tempered‑Melanitis‑Nocturnal‑Butterfly‑Dark‑Fantasy‑Motif Japanese Katana Sword
Product Introduction
The Melanitis‑Katana is shadowy mysterious melanitis nocturnal‑butterfly‑dark‑fantasy‑motif themed samurai katana, fully differentiated from sea‑dragon‑deity‑deep‑myth‑art katana, qianxi‑kamon‑traditional‑art katana, prajna‑hannya‑myth‑art katana and other deep‑ocean‑divine‑beast‑art, classical‑kamon‑heritage‑art, demon‑mask‑folklore‑art decorative swords. This melanitis‑nocturnal‑dark‑fantasy‑art‑oriented collectible draws inspiration from shadow‑dwelling nocturnal melanitis butterfly dark‑fantasy aesthetic conception. Adopts premium T10 high‑carbon steel with traditional tsuchioki clay‑differential‑tempering generating exquisite midare‑gunome butterfly‑scale‑powdery fragmented‑surge visible hamon temper‑line simulating scattered butterfly scale‑powdery ripples. It is equipped with restrained open‑work 3D‑sculpted nocturnal‑butterfly‑silhouette‑relief matte‑black‑alloy mounting hardware, black‑charcoal moro‑hineri cotton ito tsuka with dark‑grey faux ray‑fish samekawa inner lining, and solid hardwood finished in deep raven‑black lacquer decorated with ethereal dusky‑purple‑phantom‑butterfly maki‑e graphic artwork, paired with thick black‑charcoal heavy‑braided sageo cord. Target audiences include melanitis‑nocturnal‑dark‑fantasy‑art nihonto collectors, shadow‑dwelling nocturnal‑butterfly dark‑fantasy hobby enthusiasts, shadow‑obscure‑toned home‑interior decor buyers and mysterious nocturnal‑butterfly‑dark‑fantasy‑theme decorative‑gift buyers.
The blade adopts premium T10 high‑carbon steel with traditional tsuchioki clay‑differential temper‑treatment, generating exquisite midare‑gunome butterfly‑scale‑powdery fragmented‑surge hamon temper‑line simulating scattered butterfly scale‑powdery grain. Classic katana‑style shinogi‑zukuri blade geometry without blood‑groove hi, subtle embossed yokote dividing‑line, functional katana‑style kissaki tip and taganeha high‑grade hand‑grinding finish. Midare‑gunome butterfly‑scale‑powdery fragmented‑surge hamon and raven‑black dusky‑purple‑phantom‑butterfly maki‑e lacquer saya scratch easily; only static melanitis‑nocturnal‑butterfly‑dark‑fantasy‑theme display and photo‑shooting are allowed. Heavy chopping and violent impact must be strictly prohibited to preserve shadowy mysterious melanitis‑nocturnal‑dark‑fantasy‑art themed collectible surface condition.
