The‑Great‑Wave‑Katana – T10 Clay‑Tempered Ukiyo‑E‑Kanagawa‑Oki‑Nami‑Great‑Wave‑Art Japanese Katana Sword
Product Introduction
The‑Great‑Wave‑Katana is iconic japanese ukiyo‑e kanagawa great‑wave artistic‑motif themed samurai katana, fully differentiated from forest‑avian bird wildlife‑art katana, cosmic‑meteor‑shower celestial‑astral katana, night‑elf dark‑fantasy‑elven‑realm katana and other wild‑avian‑nature, cosmic‑astronomical‑myth, dark‑fantasy‑realm decorative swords. This classic‑ukiyo‑e‑art‑oriented collectible adopts premium T10 high‑carbon steel with traditional tsuchioki clay‑differential‑tempering generating powerful midare‑gunome surging‑ocean‑wave undulating hamon temper‑line. It is equipped with bold open‑work 3D‑sculpted cloud‑ocean‑wave‑relief vintage‑black‑cloud‑alloy mounting hardware, solid‑black moro‑hineri cotton ito tsuka with off‑white faux ray‑fish samekawa inner lining, and solid hardwood finished in high‑gloss black lacquer decorated with famous hand‑painted kanagawa‑great‑wave ukiyo‑e maki‑e artwork, paired with thick solid‑black heavy‑braided sageo cord. Target audiences include classic‑ukiyo‑e‑art nihonto collectors, hokusai great‑wave wood‑print hobby enthusiasts, ocean‑wave‑theme home‑interior decor buyers and iconic japanese‑ukiyo‑e‑art decorative‑gift buyers.
The blade adopts premium T10 high‑carbon steel with traditional tsuchioki clay‑differential temper‑treatment, generating visible powerful midare‑gunome surging‑ocean‑wave undulating hamon temper‑line. Classic katana‑style shinogi‑zukuri blade geometry without blood‑groove hi, subtle embossed yokote dividing‑line, functional katana‑style kissaki tip and factory light‑sharp finish. Midare‑gunome surging‑ocean‑wave hamon and hand‑painted gloss‑black ukiyo‑e maki‑e lacquer saya scratch easily; only static kanagawa‑great‑wave‑ukiyo‑e‑theme display and photo‑shooting are allowed. Heavy chopping and violent impact must be strictly prohibited to preserve iconic ukiyo‑e‑art themed collectible surface condition.
Complete mounting‑hardware set uses bold open‑work 3D‑sculpted cloud‑ocean‑wave‑relief vintage‑black‑cloud‑alloy fittings, round surging‑ocean‑cloud‑wave‑motif carved tsuba, matching‑pattern fuchi & kashira, tiny wave‑crest‑shape vintage‑black‑cloud‑alloy menuki ornaments and solid‑brass habaki plus vintage‑black‑cloud‑alloy seppa washers. Standard katana‑length tsuka grip uses off‑white faux artificial ray‑fish samekawa inner lining wrapped with thick solid‑black moro‑hineri cotton ito. Scabbard is solid hardwood finished in high‑gloss black lacquer with world‑famous hand‑painted kanagawa‑great‑wave ukiyo‑e graphic artwork, fitted with vintage‑black‑cloud‑alloy koiguchi, kurikata and kojiri hardware; matched thick solid‑black heavy‑braided sageo cord with vintage‑black‑cloud‑alloy clasp.
