Yamato Maihime

Description

Introducing the Yamato Maihime, a katana that beautifully captures the essence of Japanese tradition, blending artistry with combat prowess.

At its core, the Yamato Maihime features a blade forged from spring steel. Known for its remarkable resilience, spring steel ensures the blade can withstand significant stresses while maintaining its shape and sharpness. Measuring 71cm in length, every inch of this blade resonates with the strength and flexibility that spring steel offers.

The fittings, crafted from zinc alloy and finished with gold plating, add a touch of opulence to the weapon, highlighting the meticulous attention to detail and the quality of craftsmanship involved.

Yet, what truly sets the craft apart is its sheath. Made of solid wood and adorned with a finely painted image of a Japanese dancing girl, or Yamato Maihime, the sheath is a testament to Japanese culture and artistry. The dancing girl symbolizes grace, beauty, and elegance, traits that are mirrored in the design and performance of the katana itself.

With a total length of 103cm and weighing 1560g gross (1220g net), the Yamato Maihime is the epitome of balance, ensuring swift and precise movements, much like the Maihime’s dance.

The Yamato Maihime katana is more than just a weapon. It’s a symbol of Japanese culture, artistry, and combat tradition. Experience the spirit of Japan with a blade that not only boasts resilience, thanks to its spring steel forging, but also embodies beauty and grace with its unique sheath design. With the Yamato Maihime, you’re not just wielding a sword; you’re holding a piece of Japan’s heart and soul.
