Drawing inspiration from the legendary folklore of the celestial hare, this piece is a peerless exploration of material depth and atmospheric design. It harmonizes a striking, high-contrast aesthetic with the complex physical properties of T10 steel, resulting in a forged work of unparalleled structural beauty that evokes the mystery of the night sky.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe physical integrity of the piece is defined by rigorous, classical forging methods. Through traditional clay-tempering, a bold, naturally occurring hamon—a highly visible, undulating wave—emerges along the darkened steel profile. This characteristic ensures the authentic dynamic balance and resilient properties inherent to historical steelwork, allowing the piece to handle with a natural, unyielding fluidity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eComplementing the rigorous forging of the steel is the visual elegance of its aged bronze fittings. The tsuba and pommel showcase an exquisite, time-worn patina and a deeply textured, crater-like surface that perfectly reflects its lunar namesake. These rich, antique tones create a sophisticated contrast against the black handle wrap and the premium solid wood scabbard, which is finished with a striking gold-speckled motif reminiscent of starlight. Integrated through heritage practices, the handle utilizes real rayskin over solid wood to ensure uncompromising structural stability. The Tsuki no Usagi remains a unified, highly aesthetic tribute to the exacting standards of the classical forge.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"MoonSwords","offers":[{"title":"With Engraving +$30 \/ Sharpened","offer_id":47481515999453,"sku":"KT 70SE","price":389.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"With Engraving +$30 \/ Dull","offer_id":47481516032221,"sku":"KT 70DE","price":389.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Without Engraving \/ Sharpened","offer_id":47481516064989,"sku":"KT 70S","price":359.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Without Engraving \/ Dull","offer_id":47481516097757,"sku":"KT 70D","price":359.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0678\/2333\/7693\/files\/KT70-09.jpg?v=1776750895","url":"https:\/\/www.moonswords.com\/products\/tsuki-no-usagi-katana","provider":"MoonSwords","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
