Cinder Veil Katana
Cinder Veil Katana
The Cinder Veil Katana places a blue-finished patterned blade inside a black-and-copper koshirae. Its bo-hi gives the blade a visible channel, while the antique carved copper fittings add texture at the guard and handle.
The combination is strongest in close contrast: cool blue steel against dark lacquer and warm copper. The design is finish-led, with the fittings and blade treatment carrying more weight than an uncertain named motif.
