Jade Knot Katana
Jade Knot Katana
The Jade Knot Katana uses a jade-green saya panel and a tied cord detail to set off its darker mount. A bo-hi opens the patterned blade visually, leaving the coloured panel and cord to establish the piece’s more recognisable accents.
Antique carved copper fittings add relief without changing the restrained palette. The result is a material-and-detail-led katana whose distinction comes from the green panel and cord treatment.
