Product Details

This full tang katana features a 27.5-inch blade forged from 1060 carbon steel, heat treated to 58 HRC hardness. The hand-polished nagasa carries a bright chrome finish with engraved carvings visible along the upper flat of the blade. As part of the 1060 Steel Katana lineup, it offers a well-balanced combination of toughness and edge retention suited for display and collection.

The 10.2-inch tsuka is built on a hardwood core wrapped in genuine white rayskin for texture and grip stability. Over the samegawa sits a teal cotton ito, tightly wound in a traditional diamond pattern that creates a striking visual contrast against the white underlayer. The wrapping provides a comfortable and secure hold at 3 lbs total weight.

At the junction of blade and handle, a gold-tone alloy tsuba features a round openwork silhouette with raised floral relief on its surface. The intricate cutout pattern allows glimpses of the habaki beneath, while the gold finish on the fuchi and kashira completes the warm metallic accent theme running through the fittings.

The 30.3-inch hardwood saya is coated in a glossy orange piano lacquer that gives it a smooth, reflective surface. A teal sageo cord is tied at the kurikata, matching the handle wrap and creating a cohesive teal-and-orange color scheme across the entire piece. This Orange Saya Japanese Samurai Sword stands out immediately in any display arrangement.

At 41.5 inches overall, this katana is secured with dual bamboo mekugi pins for easy disassembly and maintenance. The bold pairing of orange lacquer, teal cord, and gold fittings makes it a distinctive collectible piece that balances traditional forging methods with an eye-catching modern color palette.
