Katana decoration, black saya with screen-printed golden dragon, tsuba dragon and samurai

Lurking in the shadows, I keep watch. Reflecting the moon's rays, my scales gleam like metal plates.
I protect the soul of the blade, enveloping it in a scabbard decorated with my silhouette. I also appear on the blade's hilt, surrounding a duel scene between two warriors. One of them is my master, who struck down the one who dared to stand in his way.
As tradition perpetuates, I allow the samurai to follow his destiny, that of service.

History & Symbol

Japanese dragons

Dragon fountain, Senso-Ji Buddhist temple, Tokyo, Japan (Photo: Philippe Contal, 2012)

In Japanese culture, the dragon (ryū 龍 or tatsu 竜) is a mythical snake-like creature. Unlike Western dragons, it has no wings, but short clawed legs and a head sporting horns or antlers. Unlike Chinese dragons, it has only three toes.

It is associated with the sea, clouds or sky. In Japanese mythology, the first dragon-like creature was Yamata-no-Orochi (ヤマタノオロチ, 八岐の大蛇), a huge, woman-eating creature with 8 heads and 8 tails. He was defeated by the kami (spirit or deity of the Shinto religion 神) Susanoo (Susano-o no Mikoto 素戔嗚命/須佐之男命). The latter had previously intoxicated him with sake (rice alcohol 酒). Cutting off all eight heads one by one, he was able to save Kushinada, who was about to be kidnapped by the dragon.

Dragons are among the main motifs decorating temples in Japan. They symbolize the obstacles human beings must overcome to progress and attain wisdom.

Shirasaya, sharp damascus blade with dark-red lacquered scabbard (saya 鞘), delivered with a protective cloth cover (deluxe version: in a wooden box containing a maintenance kit) | One on top of the other, slowly, the blacksmith folded the layers that make me up. In the hollow of the forge, I fused with carbon, I was transformed. I learned to use this foreign element imposed on me to transcend it and become another.
