Golden Dragon Wakizashi
All the little details...
Dawson swords are second to none in quality, function and beauty! I was startled by the striking beauty and rare art of this masterpiece at the very first glance. Holding this heirloom in one's hands, you feel the strength and grace of an age long past. Only rarely is it possible to find a billet of Damascus steel long enough to become a sword! The very fortunate owner of this museum piece will also know that it won the 2011 Knife Expo trophy for best sword. Be quick and be glad or be slow and be sad. If I were a rich man . . .
Barry's Golden Dragon Wakizashi boasts an approximately 21" blade. Traditional American quality from an American craftsman! The blade is painstakingly shaped from 1/4" Damascus steel, forged from a blend of 5160, 15N20, 52100 and Nickel. Barry's own custom heat-treat creates a tough, resilient blade that holds its edge long after others have failed. The polished Arizona Ironwood handle is a luminous gold laced with chocolate brown, fastened to its full tang with Barry's handmade Mosaic Pins, then overlaid with his signature black Interlocking Japanese Wrap. The exquisite Tsuba features a single golden dragon. Elegant and authentic, a masterpiece of function and style!
This incredible sword comes with its own custom fitted black Leather sheath, specially designed to be worn tucked into a traditional obi or a western style belt. The overall length is approximately 30".
