Munetoshi T10 Arashi Katana Handmade Samurai Sword with Choji Hamon Dragon Tsuba
The
new T-10 Arashi Katana from Munetoshi is made in the mid-Muromachi period
style, with a strong shinogi, chu kissaki, and smaller sori. It has an
exquisite ko choji-midare hamon with utsuri effects
throughout the blade and ends with a komaru boshi
at the kissaki. This sword has a commanding blade presence when swung
and gives confidence for completing cuts on dense targets. This sword
will be at home as a beautiful display piece or in the dojo for serious
use.
