Tiger Elite Katana

(Ref: HW6006KFG)

Utilizing a hand forged and folded Performance Series katana blade of K120C powder steel and some of the finest fittings available, the Tiger Elite Katana is equally at home as a cutting blade or showpiece. The tsuka is wrapped in superb Japanese cotton with the highest quality same available. The pierced iron tsuba features a powerful tiger stalking her next prey. The saya is ribbed at the mouth and features a subtle inlaid bamboo leaf pattern near the kojiri.

The "PB" symbol indicates the blade is from the Performance series. The Elite katana's blade is a little wider and a little thicker then the traditional counterpart, allowing for easier cuts on normal targets.

Tiger Katana

(Ref: HW1204)

Each piece in the Tiger group has a hand-forged and folded ASSAB-K120C powder steel blade, differentially tempered to produce an HRC60 edge, HRC40 back and a distinctive hamon. Saya are deeply lacquered in black, with inlaid brass bamboo leaves. The ray skin used on the tsuka is of the highest quality, and the tsuka-ito and sageo on all three pieces are woven from best quality Japanese cotton. The Fuchi, Kashira, Kojiri, Koiguchi and Kurigata are all made from blackened bronzed iron, selectively detailed in gold. The Tsuba of the Katana and Wakizashi are made from blackened iron, with a tiger inlaid in brass. The Habaki is of one-piece brass construction. The blades of all three pieces are grooved on both sides, with a short Kissaki on the Katana and Wakizashi.
