Detail
Blood Shadow Katana – Damascus Steel with Stone Texture Blade
The Blood Shadow Katana draws its name from the dark, mysterious aesthetic of its blade. Forged from Damascus steel with a unique stone texture finish, this sword captures the essence of shadow and strength. The contrasting white genuine ray skin handle and black tsuka-ito create a striking visual balance, while the all-copper fittings add a touch of traditional warmth.
⚡ Note: While fully functional with a sharpened edge and full tang construction, this katana is best suited for display, collection, cosplay, and non-contact swinging drills.
