Product Details
This katana features a 28.3-inch nagasa forged from 1045 carbon steel and hardened to 58 HRC. The full tang blade is hand polished to a clean chrome finish, presenting a smooth and even surface that catches light along its full length. At 1.18 inches wide, the blade carries enough presence for a commanding display profile while maintaining traditional katana proportions.;
The 10.2-inch tsuka is built around a full tang core and wrapped in black cotton cord over red PU samegawa. The red panels beneath the black ito create a vivid diamond pattern that runs the length of the handle, providing both a tactile grip surface and a bold visual accent. Alloy fittings in copper and brass tones secure the assembly at each end.
At the junction of blade and handle sits a black alloy tsuba with an expertly carved orchid motif. The open floral design reveals glimpses of red samegawa beneath, tying the guard into the handle's color scheme. A brass-toned habaki collar and copper-finished fuchi frame the tsuba, giving the fittings a layered, multi-toned metallic look.
The 30.3-inch hardwood saya is finished in high-gloss piano lacquer that transitions from deep black at the koiguchi to a rich, dark crimson along the body. This gradient effect gives the scabbard a dramatic presence, and the lacquer surface resists scratches while maintaining its mirror-like sheen. A black sageo is tied at the kurikata for traditional cord retention. Browse more options in our 1045 Katana collection.
