Keshi Katana by Citadel

Keshi means "poppy", which is the theme of this sword. The Tsuba of blackened iron depicts poppy leaves. Fuchi, Kashira and Menuki show the unique poppy flowers. Another highlight is the handle wrapped tightly in brown leather, which is wrapped over ray skin. Endings (Kurigata, Kojiri, Koiguchi) from buffalo horn adorn the black, high gloss lacquered scabbard. More information...

Keshi Katana by Citadel

The razor-sharp blade is made of carbon steel 1075. Differentially hardened by use of clay to about 60 HRC (cutting edge) and around 40 HRC (back of the blade). A fuller (Bo-Hi), which also visible on the forged Habiki, reduces weight and provides an optimal balance to the blade. The masterful work of the blacksmith and a beautiful hamon line are visible thanks to the skills of the polisher.
