Description
The Kōyō Katana (紅葉), meaning “Autumn Leaves,” is a breathtaking piece inspired by the vibrant maple foliage of Japan. Its design captures the serene beauty of nature at the height of fall, symbolizing both transformation and tranquility.
Blade (刀身): Forged from T10 High Carbon Steel, the blade displays a distinctive natural hamon line — a mark of meticulous craftsmanship and balance. Each cut reflects precision and elegance.
Guard (Tsuba 鍔): The golden copper tsuba depicts detailed maple leaf engravings, evoking the graceful fall of leaves carried by the autumn wind.
Handle (Tsuka 柄): Wrapped in traditional black silk over white ray skin, the tsuka provides a refined grip complemented by gold-finished ornaments representing longevity and harmony.
Scabbard (Saya 鞘): The saya features hand-painted maple leaves in shades of gold and amber over glossy black lacquer, creating a visual masterpiece reminiscent of Kyoto’s autumn landscapes.
Elegant, balanced, and deeply symbolic, the Kōyō Katana embodies the fleeting beauty of autumn — a perfect harmony between art, tradition, and the spirit of the samurai.
