Product Details
The blade is forged from 1045 carbon steel, spanning 28.3 inches with a chrome-polished finish and a visible hamon line running along the edge. Heat-treated to 58 HRC, the steel holds a hand-finished edge while maintaining enough flexibility to resist brittleness. The full tang construction extends through the entire handle, contributing to the sword's balanced 2.35 lb total weight.
The 10.2-inch tsuka is built on a hardwood core wrapped in genuine white rayskin, then bound tightly with black cotton ito in a traditional crosshatch pattern. Two bamboo mekugi pegs lock the handle to the tang, allowing disassembly for maintenance. The white same panels are visible through the diamond-shaped gaps in the wrap, adding contrast to the otherwise all-black handle.
The alloy tsuba features a gold-tone bamboo leaf design in raised relief, set against a dark textured ground with a fine crosshatch pattern. Gold fuchi and kashira cap the handle ends, tying the metalwork together with the guard. This bamboo motif carries cultural symbolism of resilience and integrity, making it a fitting centerpiece among Black Bamboo Tsuba Japanese Samurai Swords.
The 30.3-inch hardwood saya wears a black matte finish with a fine speckled texture that mimics traditional ishime lacquerwork. A black sageo cord threads through the kurikata and ties off in a neat knot, while the koiguchi mouth fits snugly around the habaki for a firm seal. The understated saya complements the sword's clean aesthetic without competing with the gold tsuba accents.
At 40.5 inches overall, this katana strikes a balance between traditional proportions and collectible presentation. The combination of 1045 steel, genuine rayskin, and alloy fittings positions it as a solid entry among Black Rayskin Handle Japanese Samurai Swords for collectors who value classic design and dependable construction.
