Practical Pro Elite

By customer demand, the Practical Pro Elite Katana (SH6009KPG) has an extended tsuka and a thicker and longer (29”) blade. The blade is forged in high-carbon steel and is differentially tempered using a traditional claying method. The Practical Pro Elite has a fine polish compared to others in the practical series. The rayskin-covered tsuka is wrapped with suede black leather for its gripping characteristics and is double-pegged for safety. The saya is finished in a deep black lacquer with a black Japanese cotton sageo. The fittings (koshirae) are finished in antiqued black iron. The katana features a round Kuruma tsuba, which represents the “Wheel of Dharma,” symbolizing the Buddhist concept of the Noble Eightfold Path. With traditional cleaning kit.
