Since the sword is intended to be a strong workhorse that you can rely on day in and day out for years, the sword is mounted in an understated "pine" motif.
The pine tree endures year round as it is an evergreen which befits the steel used for this fine and powerful katana that will never let you down.
The blade has light niku but is of moderate weight and dimensions with an extended chu kissaki and moderate sori. It is a very sharp blade that is an aggressive cutter that should handle any conventional cutting practice.
The blackened iron tsuba is a classic design picturing a pine tree and pine needles. The shape was chosen as it allows the swordsman to place the sword on the ground in front of them without worrying about the sword rolling.
The green saya represents the year round green of the evergreen pine and sports understated hand-painted gold needles.
Accented with brown sageo the saya parts are made of fine horn.
The menuki are gold gilded representations of pine cones.

Our goal was to make a sword that was without peer in terms of performance but would still have a beautiful and somewhat traditional look. Since the sword is intended to be a strong workhorse that you can rely on day in and day out for years, the sword is mounted in an understated "pine" motif.
