{"product_id":"musashi-premium-tora-katana","title":"Musashi Premium Tora Katana","description":"\u003ch2 style=\"text-align:left\"\u003eDescription:\u003c\/h2\u003eEmbody the spirit of the samurai with the Musashi Platinum Series 'Tora' Katana, a blade where centuries-old tradition meets meticulous modern craftsmanship. Forged using the revered Gomai-Kitae technique, this katana layers 1060 and 1095 high-carbon steels into a resilient core wrapped in hardened outer layers, striking the perfect balance of flexibility and razor-sharp durability. The blade’s Gunome-style hamon—a wavy, undulating temper line—reveals its differential hardening, a hallmark of elite swordsmithing. At its heart lies an iron tsuba (handguard) depicting a samurai locked in battle with a ferocious tiger (Tora), accented with gold detailing that elevates it from weapon to heirloom. The handle, wrapped in authentic ray skin and black cotton cord, pairs timeless grip with striking elegance, while the full-tang construction ensures unyielding strength. Presented in a premium gift box with a sword bag and Certificate of Authenticity, the 'Tora' Katana is more than a sword—it’s a legacy. Whether displayed as art, wielded in practice, or cherished as a collector’s prize, this blade commands respect.\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2 style=\"text-align:left\"\u003eSpecifications:\u003c\/h2\u003eOverall Length: 41 Inches\u003cbr\u003eBlade Length: 28 Inches\u003cbr\u003eBlade Material: Hand Forged 1060 \u0026amp; 1095 high-carbon steel\u003cbr\u003eHandle: 11 Inches, wood, traditional ray skin, cotton cord wrapped with iron fuchi and kashira fittings\u003cbr\u003eIncludes: Numbered Certificate of Authenticity, sword bag, storage Box and maintenance kit\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Medieval Depot","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51026024661330,"sku":"WH1C2-SS3199RD","price":1999.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0777\/7039\/1890\/files\/Musashi-Premium-Tora-Katana-1_62ab6205-974b-4c12-88ba-6be87534cd83.jpg?v=1751028340","url":"https:\/\/tophatters.co\/products\/musashi-premium-tora-katana","provider":"Tophatter's Inc.","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
