Description

The Akaryu Katana (赤竜), meaning “Red Dragon,” is a symbol of fierce elegance and controlled power. Its deep black and red color scheme evokes the fire and majesty of a dragon in flight.

Blade (刀身): Forged from Damascus steel, the blade displays intricate wave-like patterns that catch the light beautifully, offering both strength and visual artistry.

Guard (Tsuba 鍔): The polished chrome tsuba features a dragon motif, representing courage and protection — traditional virtues of the samurai spirit.

Scabbard (Saya 鞘): The black lacquered saya with deep red accents symbolizes flame and shadow, giving the sword a refined yet commanding look.

Handle (Tsuka 柄): Wrapped in black cotton over white ray-skin style texture, the handle ensures comfort and secure grip during handling or display.

The Akaryu Katana blends traditional craftsmanship with bold design, making it an exceptional choice for collectors and enthusiasts who appreciate both strength and style.
