United Cutlery - Honshu Boshin Hellfire Damascus Handmade Wakizashi Sword

Product Description

A modern legend, the Honshu Boshin Hellfire Damascus Wakizashi fuses proven, time-honored tradition with the best in 21st century innovation. Chic contemporary style and state-of-the-art appointments meld seamlessly with classic form and traditional hand-craftsmanship. Even the Damascus steel - a distinctive hand forged variety with centuries-old roots - is reimagined and reworked for an exciting new look: the boldly hued "Hellfire Damascus Steel." Trading delicate, traditional trappings like ray skin and cord for tough, ultramodern materials like TPR, the Boshin is designed for serious, real-world use. It's remarkably well-balanced and an all-around pleasure to wield, and it boasts savage cutting power that's second to none. The imposing wakizashi blade is rock-solid and impossibly sharp, slicing cleanly through rolled tatami mats, thick bamboo and other tenacious materials – suffering neither crack nor fissure in the process. Breathtaking, downright bewitching and truly unique. 40.5" (102.87cm) overall. 30.25" (76.84cm) Hellfire Damascus steel blade. Black checkered TPR handle. Stainless guard. Lanyard hole. Black TPR scabbard. Boxed.
