Kusabimaru is a katana with a sleek, slightly curved blade typical of feudal Japan, featuring a dark steel finish that reflects its frequent use in battle. The handle is wrapped in traditional black and red cord, with a simple yet elegant guard (tsuba) that has minimal decorative engraving, emphasizing functionality over ornamentation. The blade shows subtle signs of wear and minor nicks, hinting at its storied past and the many battles it has endured.
