Tokugawa | 23" Dawson Select Japanese Katana | Hamon | Arizona Ironwood
TheĀ Tokugawa KatanaĀ embodies the spirit of a warrior tempered in the fires of battleānot brash and foolhardy but experienced, restrained, and far too cunning to expose a blow before it finds its mark.

It demands the highest level of skill from the craftsman, but yields a visually stunning blade that is also superior in strength and edge.
