Product Details
This katana features a 28.3-inch blade forged from T10 carbon steel through a combination of traditional folding and clay tempering. The clay tempering process creates a genuine hamon line visible along the edge, while the folded steel produces subtle grain patterns in the body of the blade. With an edge hardness of 60 HRC, the sharpened blade holds a refined edge and showcases the tonal contrast between the hardened ha and softer shinogi-ji. Among our Clay Tempered Katana collection, this piece stands out for its understated all-black theme.
The 10.2-inch tsuka is wrapped in black ito cord over genuine white samegawa rayskin, following a traditional alternating diamond pattern. The white rayskin panels are visible beneath the cord wrap, creating a clean contrast against the black ito. A brass fuchi sits at the base of the handle, introducing a warm gold tone that breaks the monochrome palette.
At the guard, a black alloy tsuba displays an intricately carved lotus flower design with layered petals radiating outward in a circular pattern. The lotus motif carries cultural significance in Japanese aesthetics, symbolizing purity and resilience. The tsuba's dark finish blends seamlessly with the handle and saya while the carved relief catches light at different angles.
The black matte hardwood saya measures 30.3 inches and has a textured finish that gives it a slightly weathered, organic appearance. A black braided sageo cord is tied through a gold-toned kurigata fitting, offering a small but deliberate accent. The koiguchi opening is fitted precisely to the blade's habaki, ensuring a snug draw and return.
At 40.5 inches in overall length and 2.65 lbs in weight, this katana maintains balanced proportions suited for display or handling. The consistent black color scheme across the ito, saya, sageo, and tsuba gives it a unified, stealth-inspired aesthetic. For collectors exploring similar styles, our Black T10 Carbon Steel Katana selection offers additional variations in this material and color range.
