The Shinwa Makaku Katana is a true masterpiece that embodies the essence of traditional Japanese swordcraft, enhanced by meticulous artistry and craftsmanship. Hand-forged from Damascus steel, the 28 1/2” full-tang blade showcases more than 1,000 layers, revealing mesmerizing waves and swirls highlighted by an acid etching that adds dramatic contrast. The handcrafted tsuka is cloaked in genuine black ray skin and wrapped in soft tan ito, secured with traditional wooden mekugi, while the brass menuki adds a classic touch. Inspired by the revered Japanese macaque, the intricately detailed tsuba features two macaques perched in a tree, exuding an enchanting and earthy charm.
This katana is designed to be both display-worthy and functional, maintaining Shinwa's renowned standard of quality. The hand-lacquered hardwood saya, polished to a stately gloss and accented with a coordinating tan sageo, complements the blade's elegance. With an overall length of 39 1/2”, the Makaku Katana captures the beauty and tradition of Japanese sword-making and is built to be a cherished heirloom for generations to come.
