Swordsaxe Sugoi Steel Shimo Doragon 霜竜 Battle Ready Warrior Katana 1060 High Carbon Steel
Shimo Doragon is Japanese for Frost Dragon, as this clean looking katana features brilliant white Sageo, Ito, and Saya finish, next to Dragon designs in the guard and pommel.
This is a perfect katana for those looking to start out with a functional sword for light weight and swift cutting, but still looks great in person.
The blade is forged 1060 carbon steel, and 6mm thick, which is best for speed and control over accuracy.
It contains plenty of power and is sharpened out of the box, but a few passes on the whetstone will hone it enough to shave.
Again, this may not be the most powerful sword build we have available, but it is a swift blade and has a beautiful mounting and Saya.
The cast aluminum guard features the frost dragon design.
Engraved on the blade is the warrior holding a spear.
Has brilliant white Ito and Sageo wrap and the Saya is finished with high gloss white.
