Product Details
The 28.3-inch blade is forged from T10 carbon steel and clay tempered to achieve a hardness of 60 HRC at the edge, with a softer spine for structural integrity. The process produces a genuine hamon - the undulating temper line visible along the blade's length - giving this piece the defining visual signature of a traditionally crafted Japanese sword. The chrome-finish surface is hand-ground and polished to a mirror-like clarity. This katana is part of our Forged Katana collection, which focuses on blades built with documented steel and heat treatment processes.
The 10.2-inch tsuka is wrapped in white cotton ito over white samegawa in a classic diamond-pattern koshirae braid. The wrap sits firm and even, providing a stable grip surface. Beneath the ito, the full tang runs the complete length of the handle, secured without gaps or movement.
The alloy tsuba is cast in a Dragon Wave design with detailed relief work across its surface - a dragon motif rendered in gold and silver tones against a darker alloy body. The fuchi features an open lattice-style cutout pattern visible in the detail shots. The combination of gold-accent dragon imagery and silver-tone openwork gives the fittings a layered, high-contrast appearance.
The natural hardwood saya measures 30.3 inches and is finished to expose the warm reddish-brown wood grain without heavy lacquer overlay. A dark brown braided sageo cord is knotted at the kurigata with a traditional wrap pattern visible along the koiguchi end.

Overall length is 40.5 inches with a blade width of 1.26 inches and a total weight of 2.55 lbs. The koshirae-style assembly - white ito, dragon tsuba, natural wood saya, and brown sageo - creates a cohesive warm-toned aesthetic that stands out in a display setting. A full-tang T10 katana for collectors who prioritize documented construction and visual authenticity.
