Blossom Katana

“From death comes life” were the final words of this katana’s wielder. This katana was used to put an end to unneeded violence and making the world a more peaceful place. But in the end, before the wielders dream was realized, he also fell victim to this unneeded violence.

The katana is infused with a cherry blossom, which stands for a time of renewal.

I made this katana initially because I was watching Demon slayer and got inspired to make my own katana, after starting this project I dropped it pretty soon. But after I started watching One Piece, I felt motivated again and finished this project with a lot more than I initially planned. I first only cared to make the katana but later I found I wanted to make the Saya (cover) and the katana stand as well.

This model is not intended for a game, but could be used in one. If you want to use it in a game, I would recommend baking the Tsuka wrap onto the Tsuka handle (The Tsuka wrap is 25k poly’s). This would make the performance a lot better.
