SHOP CASE KNIVESThe Cold Steel Dragonfly Katana stands apart as a modern masterpiece inspired by the samurai swords of feudal Japan. Unlike many interpretive replicas available today, this katana combines traditional craftsmanship with premium materials for collectors and practitioners who demand both form and function. Its striking aesthetic is matched by its exceptional performance capabilities.
Crafted with a deeply curved 29.25-inch blade made from durable 1060 steel, this katana is designed for maximum cutting power. The blade features a long “iris leaf” point, expertly hand-polished to highlight its sharp edge and refined finish. It’s a weapon built for precision and strength, honoring the traditions of Japanese swordsmithing.
The handle of the Dragonfly Katana is as functional as it is beautiful. Wrapped in a distinctive teal-green silk cord over authentic black samé (ray skin), it provides a secure and comfortable grip. Accentuated by brass menuki and rich iron furniture with a dragonfly motif, the handle’s design reflects meticulous attention to detail. This blend of artistry and durability makes it a standout in any collection.
The katana measures an impressive 40.75 inches overall and weighs 39.4 ounces, striking a balance between heft and maneuverability. It comes equipped with a black lacquered wood scabbard that protects the blade while offering a sleek, polished look. For added convenience and style, the sword includes two protective bags: a blue cotton travel bag for transport and an elegant decorative display bag crafted from heavy silk brocade.
The Dragonfly Katana isn’t just a sword—it’s a statement of refined taste and appreciation for timeless craftsmanship. Whether you’re displaying it as a centerpiece or wielding it for practice, this blade delivers unmatched quality and visual appeal.
