Everwood Oath – Wood Element

Everwood Oath – Wood Element

Everwood Oath is a Japanese decorative katana inspired by long-term commitment and enduring intention within the Wood element. Its presence feels grounded, patient, and resolute — embodying strength that matures over time.

This piece symbolizes promises made to oneself and paths chosen with patience. In the philosophy of Wood, true growth is not sudden; it is sustained through consistency and quiet dedication. Everwood Oath reflects that enduring resolve.

The fittings are crafted from pure copper with an antique finish, offering warmth and a sense of time-honored character. The saya is made from green skin wood and carefully hand-lacquered, highlighting organic texture with refined depth.

The blade is hand-forged from T10 steel and undergoes clay-coated water quenching, producing a natural water-wave hamon along the hardened edge. A bo-hi groove refines the blade’s profile, while a 25-step hand polishing process enhances clarity and definition. The traditional Japanese three-tone polishing technique further accentuates the blade’s visual layers and craftsmanship.

Everwood Oath is designed exclusively for decorative display and collection, uniting symbolic meaning with disciplined forging techniques.
