Product Details

This katana features a 28.35-inch nagasa forged from 1045 carbon steel, hand-polished to a chrome finish that reveals a flowing hamon line along the edge. The steel is hardened to 58 HRC, and the full tang construction runs the entire length of the handle for structural integrity. Every aspect of the blade - from the kissaki tip to the polished surface - reflects careful hand finishing.

The 10.24-inch tsuka is built on a full tang core, wrapped in black cord over red-dyed samegawa in a traditional crosshatch pattern. The layered texture provides a firm, comfortable hold while the red and black color pairing adds a striking visual accent. This is a classic Full Tang Katana construction designed for both strength and aesthetics.

At the junction of blade and handle sits a silver alloy tsuba carved with an elaborate waves and fish motif. The flowing, organic design is deeply sculpted with dimensional detail, and a brass habaki collar creates a clean gold-tone transition between the guard and the nagasa.

The hardwood saya is coated in piano lacquer with a dramatic black-and-white speckled finish that resembles a starlit sky. A black sageo cord is tied at the kurikata, and the glossy surface provides a protective shell for the blade during storage. This textured saya sets the piece apart from standard lacquer finishes found on most Japanese Sword models.

With an overall length of 40.55 inches and a weight of 2.64 lbs, this katana balances presence with manageability. The combination of chrome-polished 1045 steel, sculpted silver fittings, red-accented handle, and speckled saya creates a cohesive collectible piece well suited for wall display, a personal collection, or as a memorable gift for any occasion.

  • Forged from 1045 carbon steel with a chrome-polished finish and hand-finished edge, the 28.35-inch nagasa delivers a visible hamon line along the full length of the blade.
  • Full tang construction secured through a 10.24-inch tsuka wrapped in black cord over red samegawa, creating a bold contrast that enhances both grip texture and visual appeal.
  • Silver alloy tsuba features an intricate waves and fish relief design with a brass habaki collar, adding sculptural detail to the sword's profile.
  • Black hardwood saya finished in piano lacquer with a distinctive white speckled texture, paired with a black sageo cord tie - overall length reaches 40.55 inches at 2.64 lbs.
  • Each piece is hand-forged and assembled by experienced smiths using traditional Japanese sword-making methods, resulting in a collectible katana suited for display or gifting.

Very good nice quality katana, although it will wear down quite fast if used for cutting. it is best to be left as display. If you love swords, you will not regret this purchase.
