Blade (刀身): Coated in a brilliant gold color, the manganese steel blade offers not only a distinguished look but also hardness capable of resisting wear and abrasion. Hamon imitation and throat (Bo-Hi) add lightness and balance to the blade, while creating a distinct whistling sound as it cleaves the air, a quality often appreciated for training and demonstration.
Guard (Tsuba 鍔): The sculpted solid brass guard is a tribute to traditional craftsmanship, where every detail is designed to represent strength and elegance. Brass is renowned for its corrosion resistance and durability, making it an ideal material for effective, long-lasting protection.
Scabbard (Saya 鞘): The wooden scabbard is finished with a lacquer that not only protects the wood but also offers a smooth, scratch-resistant surface. The texture and design of the lacquer are designed to reflect the wearer's unique character, just as the samurai stands out on the battlefield.
Handle (Tsuka 柄): Made from solid wood and covered in imitation fish leather stingray, the handle provides a secure, comfortable grip. Although an imitation, the material offers a texture similar to that of real stingray, renowned for its improved grip.
