[PRE-ORDER] Hebiryuusen Katana (蛇龍戦)

The Hebiryuusen Katana draws its identity from conflict and balance—its tsuba portraying a dragon and serpent intertwined, their heads locked in silent opposition. One embodies dominance and celestial might; the other, cunning and earthly instinct. Neither yields. Together, they form a tension that defines the blade itself.

Its clean, understated appearance reflects this restrained intensity. A glossy black scabbard and blue handle keep the focus on the symbolism at its core, allowing the contrast between dragon and snake to speak without distraction.

Hand forged from 1060 high carbon steel, the blade is heat treated, oil quenched, and carefully polished, with long bo-hi running along both sides to enhance balance and presence. The result is a katana that feels deliberate rather than excessive—disciplined, watchful, and quietly fierce.

Hebiryuusen is a blade for those who understand that true battles are not always fought openly. Some are carried within—between instinct and reason, fury and restraint, ambition and control.
