From the ever-popular Shirakawa series from the Musashi Silver Collection comes the Musashi Ryu Katana. This beautifully hand crafted katana is forged using the traditional Japanese technique known as Muku-kitae. The blade is clay tempered using 1060 carbon steel. The hamon and hardness (55 HRC) were created during the tempering process. It features a real ray skin handle wrapped in black cotton cord. The Fuchi and Kashira are made of brass and the Tsuba features a hand etched design. The saya is traditional glossy piano black.
