Ryu no Kiba Katana 龍の牙
The Ryu no Kiba Katana, meaning “Fang of the Dragon”, is a blade of unmatched elegance and power. Forged from Tamahagane steel — the legendary material used by master swordsmiths of ancient Japan — it embodies the spirit of the dragon: wise, unstoppable, and divine.
Every detail of this katana reflects harmony between beauty and strength. From the shimmering midare hamon to the hand-lacquered blue-and-gold saya, the Ryu no Kiba stands as a symbol of craftsmanship and honor.
SPECIFICATIONS
| Blade | Hand-forged Tamahagane steel with refined folding grain (hada).

Mirror-polished finish enhances its wave-like beauty under the light. |

| Handle (Tsuka) | Wood core wrapped in deep indigo ito (cotton wrap) over authentic white ray skin (samegawa) for perfect grip, comfort, and balance. |
| Scabbard (Saya) | Hand-lacquered blue and gold cracked finish (kawari-nuri) symbolizing divine clouds and celestial energy. Each piece is individually polished for a high-gloss, mirror-like texture. |

DESCRIPTION
The Ryu no Kiba Katana captures the might and wisdom of the celestial dragon. Its Tamahagane blade, clay-tempered and mirror-polished, radiates both beauty and lethal precision.

Majestic, divine, and eternal — the Ryu no Kiba Katana channels the soul of the dragon into the hands of its bearer.
