He set out eight vats of strong sake, let every head drink its fill, then cut the creature apart. In one tail his own blade chipped on something hard: a sword. Later named Kusanagi, it became one of the three imperial regalia, kept at Atsuta Shrine in Nagoya and never put on view.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA green snake winds up the blade of a katana with its jaws wide open, wrapped in red flame and teal cloud and stacked against a black sunburst pillar on the back. A small copy sits on the chest. It's the Izumo story boiled down to one frame: a serpent and a sword, tangled together.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe real Kusanagi stays out of sight at Atsuta Shrine, but this sword goes out with black jeans or work pants, its red flame softened by washed pale gray.
