The 三日月 — Mikazuki Katana is crafted for collectors who value both visual impact and true blade performance. The blade is forged from Damascus steel, revealing a distinctive layered grain pattern across its surface. A genuine hamon runs along the cutting edge, marking the boundary between hardened edge and resilient spine — a hallmark of traditional Japanese bladesmithing.
The saya (scabbard) is finished in deep black lacquer with warm amber accents at the koiguchi and kojiri, creating a bold contrast that frames the blade beautifully. A black silk sageo is tied at the kurigata, adding an elegant finishing touch to the scabbard.
The tsuka (handle) is wrapped in rich amber ito over genuine samegawa, with white diamond-shaped menuki accents woven throughout — providing both a secure grip and refined aesthetic. The copper fuchi and kashira complement the warm tones of the handle with understated elegance.
The centrepiece of this katana is its extraordinary tsuba: a large silver cloud-form guard with intricate openwork cutouts along the border, a jet-black iron plate background, and gold inlaid motifs — a crescent moon (三日月, mikazuki) and a bamboo sprig. These symbols of resilience, growth, and the passage of time give the sword its name and soul.
The 三日月 — Mikazuki Katana is not a standard replica. It is a collector's piece defined by its celestial craftsmanship, rare Damascus patterning, and a tsuba unlike any other — the Blade of the Crescent Moon.
