Wakizashi Hanami (花見脇差) – Blade of Blossoming Grace
Crafted for the soul that appreciates both beauty and sharp precision, the Wakizashi Hanami is a vibrant ode to Japanese tradition. Its blade is forged from manganese steel, renowned for its durability and flexibility, and adorned with a bo-hi groove that reduces weight and enhances balance.
The tsuka (handle) is fashioned from solid wood, wrapped in an elegant green cotton ito, giving a fresh, nature-inspired contrast to the steel. At its heart lies a copper habaki, snugly securing the blade, while a finely sculpted iron tsuba adds a traditional, ornamental flair.
The centerpiece of this piece is undoubtedly the lacquered saya (scabbard), delicately hand-painted with floral motifs reminiscent of sakura petals in bloom. It’s a display of artistry, tradition, and charm — perfect for collectors, enthusiasts, and practitioners of Japanese martial arts.
