SHOP CASE KNIVESThe Cold Steel Mizutori Crane Katana embodies a perfect balance of performance, craftsmanship, and aesthetic appeal, inspired by the traditional battlefield katana. Forged with a 1095 carbon steel blade and differentially hardened using a clay-tempered Hamon, this katana delivers exceptional strength and edge retention. Its hand-sharpened Hamaguri grind is accentuated by a polished spine and blade flats, highlighting the meticulous attention to detail that Cold Steel is known for.
Measuring 39.75 inches, the blade features a striking crane motif on both the Tsuba and Menuki, symbolizing luck, loyalty, and strength—attributes deeply rooted in Japanese tradition. The handle is crafted from high-quality ray skin and tightly wrapped in a brown silk cord, providing a secure grip while enhancing the katana’s visual appeal. At 41.25 inches overall and weighing 43.2 ounces, this sword offers a robust yet balanced feel, making it as functional as it is stunning.
The katana is housed in a sleek black lacquered wood scabbard that not only protects the blade but also complements its sophisticated design. Whether you're a collector, martial artist, or enthusiast, the Mizutori Crane Katana stands out as a premium addition to any lineup. Its combination of traditional artistry and modern performance ensures it delivers both aesthetics and utility.
