Ltd Ed - Sensho 戦勝 (2024)

戦勝: Victory

Dragonfly embodies profound symbolism in Japanese culture. Its gracefulness through adversity serves as a metaphor for personal growth, defying its delicate appearance with grit and agility. Dubbed the "victory insect", the traits of the dragonfly echo the samurai's combat skills and strict adherence to their code of conduct.

Sensho Katana is a well orchestrated work of art with a carefully hand forged full tang high carbon steel blade. Its distinctive 1.25” curvature (Torii Sori) honours the samurai tradition and allows more fluid and effective cutting motion. The alluring Sanbonsugi hamon highlights the traditional craftsmanship.

Further proving its cultural significance, dragonfly-themed fittings are incorporated to enhance its visual appeal. The bold yet subtle colours of the sageo amplify the dragonfly's interplay of strength and grace.

Limited to 24 pieces, the Sensho Katana symbolically pays tribute to 2024.
