Wakizashi Shirasame (白雨脇差) – Blade of the White Rain
Elegant in form and formidable in design, the Wakizashi Shirasame is a testament to the balance between art and lethality. Forged from Damascus steel, its mesmerizing layered patterns flow alongside a carefully carved bo-hi, offering improved balance and a beautiful aesthetic.
The tsuka (handle) is made from solid wood, wrapped in black cotton ito over genuine white stingray skin, providing a textured grip and sophisticated visual contrast. A solid copper habaki adds durability and historical authenticity, while the scabbard (saya) is meticulously crafted from polished palisander wood, known for its density and rich grain. The look is completed with a black and white sageo, honoring the yin-yang balance of warrior spirit and serenity.
With its deep traditional roots and elegant detailing, the Wakizashi Shirasame is perfect for connoisseurs of Japanese weaponry who value both authenticity and uniqueness.
