USA SHIPPING ⚠️ From 9 oct. 2025

Order, Japan Post (EMS) has temporarily suspended all commercial deliveries to the United States.

As a result, we are now shipping through alternative private carriers. Unfortunately, these services are considerably more expensive. Therefore, we kindly ask our U.S. customers to contribute a portion of the shipping cost — $200 per order.

Please note that delivery times will also be longer, as we must obtain a custom shipping quote from the carrier for each sword. We currently estimate a 3–4 month delivery window.

We sincerely appreciate your patience, understanding, and continued support during this time.

La katana presenta una curvatura media (Naka-sori) con una profundidad superficial, elaborada en estilo Shinogi-zukuri con un Iori-mune (espalda simple). La punta de la hoja es pequeña (Ko-kissaki) y tiene un acabado barrido (Haki-kakeru). El Hamon es ligeramente ondulante (Ko-cho) con pequeñas irregularidades (Ware). Contiene nie fino (partículas martensíticas) y muestra sunagashi (líneas parecidas a whiskers). El Jigane es un ko-itame-hada mezclado con mokume, que destaca claramente.

El koshirae es igualmente impresionante. El fuchi-kashira, o pomo y cuello, están hechos de shakudo (una aleación de oro y cobre) con un patrón de hueva de pez (Nanako-ji) y cuentan con un diseño de dragón con incrustación de oro (Kin-zogan de Ryu-zu). El menuki, u ornamentos de la empuñadura, son grandes dragones persiguiendo una perla. El tsuba está hecho de cobre liso en forma redonda con un diseño de carpa y figura humana. La saya está lacada con un acabado de bermellón rojo pulido

Contexto histórico :

El herrero de espadas Kanemaki se originó en la provincia de Mino y fue parte de la escuela Seki. En el período temprano de Edo, se trasladó a Kanazawa, continuando su oficio durante cinco generaciones. La segunda generación fue convocada a Komatsu por Maeda Toshitsune, un daimyo retirado que residía en el Castillo de Komatsu. Las generaciones posteriores regresaron a Kanazawa para continuar su trabajo. Las espadas firmadas con inscripciones como "Kashu Kanazawa ju Kanemaki" y "Kashu Komatsu ju Kanemaki" son ejemplos de su artesanía. Esta katana es un testimonio de la importancia histórica y la calidad excepcional que caracterizan el linaje Kanemaki.
