The blade is forged from Damascus steel, revealing a distinctive layered grain pattern across its surface. A genuine hamon runs along the cutting edge, marking the boundary between hardened edge and resilient spine — a hallmark of traditional Japanese bladesmithing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe saya (scabbard) is finished in deep black lacquer with warm amber accents at the koiguchi and kojiri, creating a bold contrast that frames the blade beautifully. A black silk sageo is tied at the kurigata, adding an elegant finishing touch to the scabbard.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe tsuka (handle) is wrapped in rich amber ito over genuine samegawa, with white diamond-shaped menuki accents woven throughout — providing both a secure grip and refined aesthetic. The copper fuchi and kashira complement the warm tones of the handle with understated elegance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe centrepiece of this katana is its extraordinary tsuba: a large silver cloud-form guard with intricate openwork cutouts along the border, a jet-black iron plate background, and gold inlaid motifs — a crescent moon (三日月, \u003cem\u003emikazuki\u003c\/em\u003e) and a bamboo sprig. These symbols of resilience, growth, and the passage of time give the sword its name and soul.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003e三日月 — Mikazuki Katana\u003c\/strong\u003e is not a standard replica. It is a collector's piece defined by its celestial craftsmanship, rare Damascus patterning, and a tsuba unlike any other — the Blade of the Crescent Moon.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Katana Sword","offers":[{"title":"Sharpened \/ Without Engraving","offer_id":53836635668813,"sku":"MKZ-001","price":460.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Sharpened \/ With Engraving +$30","offer_id":53836635701581,"sku":"MKZ-001","price":490.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Not Sharpened \/ Without Engraving","offer_id":53836635734349,"sku":"MKZ-001","price":460.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Not Sharpened \/ With Engraving +$30","offer_id":53836635767117,"sku":"MKZ-001","price":490.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0578\/4567\/8248\/files\/r_DSC06773.jpg?v=1777994131","url":"https:\/\/japansekatana.nl\/en\/products\/mikazuki-katana-%e4%b8%89%e6%97%a5%e6%9c%88","provider":"Katana Sword","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
