Undertow™ - Reverse Blade Katana

Few mortals dare to journey to the dark shores of the Imperial Sea to challenge the ancient master that dwells there. An old man, he has spent his lifetime protecting and studying the ocean's essence and is said to be able to alter the tides and summon the dreaded beasts of the deep. A man of mystery, he has been challenged by many, and lost to no one. His legendary skill has surpassed even the knowledge of the most experienced masters, each returning home bruised and battered from his reverse blade. His weapon of choice, the oldest of the GOTAIYO Swords, a sword with a reverse blade that is simple yet elegant, claiming it's beauty from the depths of the ocean. With a black nylon wrapped tsukamaki over an antique white menuki, the tsuba and kashira are bronze finished with the relief castings of Koi, Crabs, and gentle Manta Rays. The background is flowing water, the source of all life, and the wisdom of one man. With its chemically etched hamon and 440 stainless steel blade, the Undertow captures the tradition of the samurai and the essence of nature. A black aluminum scabbard integrates the dark allures of the deep with the class of an exceptional weapon.
