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 Sword 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.
