Ryumon Senshi Tengoku Katana

... Hand Forged Samurai Sword.

The day has come for me to show you this masterpiece! Ronnie's 21st Birthday pressie!

Quite a number of photos were taken this afternoon, quite difficult to get an angle where the mirror polished blade don't reflect the sun!

This beauty features a sharpened 1065 high carbon steel blade with traditional carvings on both sides.

The tsuba features an antiqued brass finish and depicts a scene of Japanese gods on one side and bamboo on the other.

The grip is wrapped in genuine rayskin and a black cotton cord.

The says is mahogany wood with a clear lacquer.

It includes a maintenance kit.

Overall Length: 41 7/8 Blade: 29 15/16''
Weight: 2 lb 11.2 oz
Edge: Very Sharp
P.O.B.: 4 11/16''
Thickness: 6.7 mm - 6.1 mm

Ronnie qualified for a brown belt in Karate before we moved to Zambia and never had the opportunity to qualify further, now he and Anrie joined a Kinjutsu club in Centurion and are truly dedicated to their new sport, that's the reason for importing this beauty for him for a birthday pressie.
