Shirasagi Katana 白鷺の刀
The Shirasagi no Katana (“White Heron Sword”) embodies purity, precision, and calm strength. Forged from folded Damascus steel, the blade reveals mesmerizing layered grain and a soft wave hamon, mirroring ripples over still water. Its pristine white tsuka paired with a deep black lacquer saya symbolizes the perfect harmony of light and shadow — serenity balanced by power.
