Its name — meaning \"crimson lotus,\" the colour the old swordsmiths gave to a raging flame — is written into every detail: a San-Mai \"Red Roast\" blade glowing with warm copper tones, dragon-engraved copper fittings, and a saya finished in deep marbled lacquer of red, gold and ember black. This is a sword built to look like fire caught in steel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSPECIFICATIONS\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBlade Material\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSan-Mai (Red Roast) — three-layer laminated construction with a hard high-carbon cutting edge folded between two softer flanks, finished in a warm reddish \"roasted\" tone that brings out a flowing wood-grain hada\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eEquipment\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCopper Fittings — dragon-engraved habaki and copper accents\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e103 cm (40.6\")\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBlade Length\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e71 cm (28.0\")\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHandle Length\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e27 cm (10.6\")\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBlade Width\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e3.2 cm (1.26\")\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5 class=\"font-weight-bold\"\u003eDESCRIPTION\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003e紅蓮 — Guren Katana\u003c\/strong\u003e is named after the crimson lotus, a flower the old poets used to describe the heart of a raging fire. One look at the blade explains the choice. Forged in San-Mai lamination and given a \"Red Roast\" finish, the steel glows with deep copper and amber tones, while the flowing wood-grain hada ripples down its length like embers moving under ash.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSan-Mai construction places a hard, high-carbon cutting core between two softer outer layers. The result is the best of both worlds — an edge that holds keenly and flanks that absorb shock and resist breaking — the same logic master smiths have used for centuries, here wrapped in a finish you simply do not see on an ordinary katana.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe koshirae carries the fire theme from end to end. The saya is hand-finished in a marbled lacquer of crimson, gold and black that shifts in the light, so no two scabbards are ever identical. An iron tsuba pierced with gold dragons and framed by a silver cloud-engraved rim guards the blade, paired with a dragon-engraved copper habaki. The tsuka is wrapped in black ito over genuine white samegawa rayskin, finishing the sword with a clean, classic grip.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFull-tang and built to the same exacting standards as every blade in this line, the \u003cstrong\u003e紅蓮 — Guren Katana\u003c\/strong\u003e is a collector's statement first and a cutter second. Available sharpened for tameshigiri or left unsharpened for display, with optional hand engraving.
