23.5" Bushi 1095 Ko-Katana Gold Dragon
A shorter and stouter version of the classic samurai Katana (with Bo-Hi for better weight and handling), forged from 1095 carbon steel. The Ko-Katana is ideal for close quarter combat and enclosed spaces where a full length Katana could be limiting. The blade is clay-tempered, giving it a distinctive Hamon, a hardened edge with a softer spine to resist shock and increase durability. All Bushi class blades are given our newly developed hybrid polish, producing a mirror polish with vibrant Hamon. With timeless gold dragon themed fittings, this sword makes a fantastic display piece that is also ready for the battlefield.
