Hanwei Fuku Riu Katana

The blades of each of the Fuku-Riu swords are hand-forged from K120C powder steel.  The blade style for the katana is of the style of Unokubi-Zukuri, ½ blood grove with a re-enforced Kissaki.  The wakizashi does not have a bo-hi.  The saya is a blend of green and black polished lacquer, unique to this line and a first for the forge. High quality ray skin (same) is used on the tsuka of the katana and wakizashi. The tsuba of the katana daisho are crafted in traditional blackened iron with a detailed depiction of the Fuku-Riu dragon holding a smoky agate “pearl”.  The fuchi and kashira are also of blackened iron.  The kashira depicts a dragon claw also holding an agate pearl.
