Product Details
The 28.3-inch blade is forged from T10 carbon steel and clay tempered to 60 HRC, a differential hardening process that creates a genuine hamon - the wavy temper line running the length of the nagasa. The hand-polished chrome finish draws out the contrast between the hard edge and the softer spine, giving the blade a depth that mirror-polish blades simply cannot match. Collectors drawn to T10 Katana Sword will recognize the characteristic activity in the hamon as a hallmark of authentic heat treatment.
The tsuka measures 10.2 inches and is built on a full-tang foundation, with white samegawa (ray skin) providing the base grip layer beneath tightly wound black ito. Diamond-shaped menuki fittings are set at intervals along the wrap, visible between the crossings and adding a subtle ornamental detail that reads clearly even from a distance.
The iron tsuba is finished in black with a concentric geometric pattern of raised gold dots radiating outward from the center - a design that references classical Japanese metalwork without directly copying any single historical school. The rectangular gold-toned habaki seats cleanly against the tsuba face, and the fuchi collar maintains the black-and-gold palette through to the handle.
The saya is shaped from natural hardwood and left in an uncoated brown finish that lets the wood grain read openly across the full 30.3-inch length. The warm reddish-brown tone of the wood provides a deliberate contrast against the black sageo cord knotted at the kurigata. This natural saya finish is consistent with koshirae styles that prioritize material character over high-gloss lacquer. Those exploring Forged Katana will find this saya treatment a standout feature among similarly priced pieces.
Total assembled length is 40.5 inches at a weight of 2.65 lbs. The koshirae-style mountings, clay-tempered T10 blade, and natural hardwood saya make this a coherent piece for collectors who value visible craftsmanship over decorative finish alone.
