Galaxy katana, wootz steel



The Galaxy Katana from Hanwei is an eye-catcher, combining simple design with striking details.



The Galaxy Katana blade is forged from Wootz steel (the raw material of the famous Damascus steel), creating the unique blade pattern of this exceptional katana edition.



The tsuka was wrapped in black ray skin and then wrapped with a black tsuka-ito. The menuki incorporated into the winding are representations of the earth and Saturn with their moons.

Seppa, fuchi and kashira are made of steel and decorated with intricate wave patterns. The shiny saya is painted metal and wrapped in blue sageo. Black koiguchi and kojiri nicely complete the picture.



Included in delivery:

The traditional sword care kit contains sword oil, rice paper (nuguigami), a soft cloth, a ball of polishing powder (uchiko), a brass hammer (mekuginuki) and a blade for adjusting the saya. The set is delivered in a custom-made wooden box.
