Product Details
The 20.47-inch damascus steel blade on this wakizashi is the centerpiece of the build - layered pattern steel reveals itself across the full length of the nagasa, with a genuine hamon temper line tracing the edge and a hand-polished chrome finish that keeps the visual contrast sharp. Hardness is rated at 60 HRC, and the blade arrives sharpened from the forge. Explore more pieces in this category at our Damascus Wakizashi collection.
The tsuka runs 8.66 inches and is wrapped in black ito cord over a black same (ray skin) base. The diamond-pattern wrap is clean and consistent, sitting flush against the fuchi and kashira fittings for a finished koshirae presentation.
The tsuba is cast from real copper with a white finish and features an ornate scroll cutout pattern - open-work construction that gives the guard a refined, detailed look. The habaki sits snugly between tsuba and blade, completing the transition from handle to nagasa without play or looseness.
The saya is built from hardwood and finished in a bold yellow piano lacquer with a high-gloss surface. A skull graphic printed near the lower body of the saya adds a distinct visual accent, breaking from conventional lacquer decoration. A black sageo cord is knotted at the kurigata.
