Black Same

The Dragonfly koshirae katana has a distinctive style, a thinner lighter blade individually hand forged and folded from the superior Swedish Powdered Steel and very affordable. Our work with Hanwei continues to produce swords of the highest quality, the best value for the money. All of Bugei swords are tested extensively before they are put into production. We make sure that our swords perform as good as they look. The Dragonfly held a special significance to the Samurai. Their seemingly tireless movement reflected the Samurai’s desire to give tireless service to his feudal Lord. The dark brown ito is set off by the black same making this a unique offering from Bugei. The lower shinogi and the scant hira-niku make this blade lighter and faster and gives it less resistance in cutting soft targets. The tsuka has the slight “waisting”, ryugo, that is popular with many who study Japanese sword arts. The fittings are beautifully antiqued duplicating the look of old iron. Ted Tenold is responsible for the design and authenticity of these fittings and we think that they are the best that Bugei have offered.

The overall motif mirrors that of the Dragonfly Koshirae Tanto and would make a beautiful addition for the collector or the practitioner.
