A soft grey tone — nezumi iro, meaning “mouse colour” in Japanese — gives this katana a unique and unexpected character. Its Damascus steel blade is made from multiple layers of metal forged together to create stunning damascened patterns. The handle is finished in shagreen (ray skin), a luxurious material traditionally used in fine leatherwork and cabinetry. The choice of noble materials places this hand-forged Japanese katana among the most refined models — a perfect choice for lovers of luxury and Japanese culture alike.
