All about Katana
KATANA
Nakano, Tokyo
Historically, Katana have been regarded not only as weapons but also as works of art. The blade is regarded as the core of the aesthetic evaluation. You will learn how to look at the Katana, such as the shape, pattern and hamon and learn the history and stories behind them. The most unique experience would be actually holding them and feeling the weight of each handmade Katana that are displayed at the store. Katana are for sale if you are interested in purchasing.
