Overview

Musha Elite - Tsubasa Katana

The Tsubasa Katana from the Musha Elite Collection has an enigmatic and regal essence with its gorgeously rendered Heron tsuba and its golden hue blade. Considered a divine creature, the heron embodies purity, transition and otherworldliness and are seen as a link to the spirit world. The blade of this katana is sharp, well-tempered and ready for use right out of the box. The blade is robustly mounted into the hilt and its tsuba, fuchi and kashira components are finely cast from metal with a silver finish. The tsuka grip is made from wood and has panels of faux rayskin which is knotted over with a bronze hue tsuka ito grip.

The scabbard is carved from wood which is finished with a glossy layer of smooth black lacquer and a matching knotted sageo cord. The sword comes with a cloth sword bag and a sword stand ideal for a desktop or shelf display.
