OVERVIEW
The Kacho Gunkan, called "Flower and Bird Scroll Spirit," is a special katana that shows the great skill of Japanese craftsmanship. Made from strong manganese steel, this blade is built to last and has a unique 90-degree curve that helps it keep its shape. The blade goes through a traditional blueing process, which makes it look better and last longer.
Hand-finished with a double-line sharpening method, the edge is very hard at 60 HRC, allowing it to easily cut through iron and bamboo. The katana is 103 cm long in total, with a 71 cm blade, a 26 cm handle, and a blade width of 3.2 cm. The zinc alloy tsuba and the beautifully carved wooden scabbard, decorated with flower and bird designs, add to its beauty, making the Kacho Gunkan a true work of art.
