Mizutori (Crane) Katana

Mizutori® (Crane) Katana

The Crane is a symbol of luck and longevity, loyalty and strength, and is a much-loved symbol in Japan. While developing a new Katana to add to the long-standing and world-renowned line-up of Japanese blades, Cold Steel® felt it only fitting to add the Crane as a motif.

The Mizutori® (Crane) Katana is a high-end, high-performance blade that was inspired by older, practical battlefield Katanas. The Mizutori®'s blade is made from high-quality 1095 high carbon steel and differentially hardened with a clay-tempered Hamon. The handsome blade features a hand-sharpened Hamaguri grind with highly polished spine and blade flats. The Tsuba and Menuki both feature an iconic crane motif, and the high-quality rayskin handle is tightly wrapped in brown silk cord, adding a level of detail and beauty that must be seen to be believed.

Housed inside a lustrous black lacquered Saya, the Mizutori® Katana is a stunning and attractive sword that is sure to become the pride of your collection!
