Omamori Katana
Swords of Good Fortune
There is an ancient custom in Japan of giving a
wakizashi (short sword, or tanto) to a newly wed bride, or to a family to commemorate
the birth of a child. The purpose of this gift is to act as a protective
amulet, assuring the child's well being.
Though these kinds of Omamori Katana are not
commonly given today, skilled sword smiths today still produce stunningly
beautiful blades and Koshirae in this same spirit and tradition.
The catalogue offered here is a collection of display photos of exquisite
Omamori Katana, and profiles of esteemed modern sword smiths.
Have a look at the images below - the photography in the book is really
stunning. My poor digital camera photos below do not do justice to the
exquisitely beautiful image quality in the book.
Also contains step by step color photo instructions
for correctly tying the sageo for Omamori Katana.
