Product Details

This chokuto ninjato features a 28.5-inch straight blade forged from T10 carbon steel using the clay tempering method. The differential hardening process creates a genuine hamon line visible along the edge - not etched or printed - while achieving a hardness of 60 HRC. The result is a blade with a polished chrome-tone finish, a hand-sharpened edge, and the classic straight profile that defines the chokuto style.

The 10.25-inch tsuka is built on a full tang core and wrapped tightly in black cord over PU black samegawa. Gold-tone alloy fuchi and kashira cap each end of the handle, matching the warm metallic accent of the tsuba. The grip feels balanced and secure, distributing the sword's 3.2 lbs evenly across its 40.5-inch total length.

At the junction of handle and blade sits an oval gold alloy tsuba featuring raised relief patterns with fine textural detail. The bright gold finish creates a striking visual break between the dark handle wrap and the bright steel, giving the piece a refined, traditional character that stands out in any Clay Tempered Ninja Sword collection.

The black hardwood saya has a matte textured surface that resembles fine stone grain, with a black sageo cord tied at the kurikata. The understated finish pairs naturally with the dark handle and gold fittings, keeping the overall look cohesive and elegant without excess ornamentation.

With its straight-blade geometry, clay tempered T10 steel construction, and carefully coordinated black-and-gold color scheme, this chokuto ninjato works equally well as a display centerpiece or a valued addition to a growing T10 Carbon Steel Ninjato collection. Sword and saya only - stand not included.

  • Forged from T10 carbon steel with clay tempering that produces a genuine hamon line along the 28.5-inch straight blade, hardened to 60 HRC for a refined edge and lasting durability.
  • Full tang construction with a 10.25-inch tsuka wrapped in black cord over PU black samegawa, secured with gold-tone alloy fuchi and kashira for a firm, balanced grip.
  • Gold-finished oval alloy tsuba with intricate relief detailing adds a bold contrast against the dark handle and complements the polished chrome-tone blade surface.
  • Black hardwood saya with a matte textured finish measures 28.5 inches and includes a black sageo cord - the overall sword length reaches 40.5 inches at 3.2 lbs total weight.
  • Each piece is hand-finished and sharpened, making this chokuto a striking collectible for fans of straight-blade Japanese sword design and traditional forging techniques.

Frequently Asked Questions

What steel and hardness does this chokuto ninjato have?
This chokuto is forged from T10 carbon steel and clay tempered to reach 60 HRC edge hardness. The clay tempering process creates a genuine hamon line along the 28.5-inch straight blade, with a polished chrome-tone finish and a hand-sharpened edge.
Is the hamon on this ninjato real or printed?
The hamon is real, produced through clay tempering rather than wire brushing or printing. Differential clay application during heat treatment creates a natural temper line along the blade edge, with subtle variations unique to each piece.
What does the tsuba and saya design look like?
The tsuba is an oval gold-finished alloy guard with raised relief patterns and fine textural detailing. The saya is crafted from black hardwood with a matte textured surface and a black sageo cord, creating a cohesive black-and-gold color scheme.

I like the sword. It is well balanced. It will primarily be a collectable on a stand.
I may practice a kata or two with it. Thank you True Katana.

I couldn't be happier with the Ninjato sword I ordered. The blade fits snugly into the Saya and the Saya is sound and sturdy. The Tsuka has a professional appeal and plays its part nicely in the overall sword character. The Ninjato came ridiculously sharp. The only thing that tops the quality of the T10 steel blade is how gorgeous the Hamon is. Not only is it real, but it is absolutely stunning. The sword arrived at my door in less than a week and in superb packaging. I look forward to my next purchase from Truekatana with great anticipation.
As far as cost, quality and delivery are concerned, Truekatana knocks it out of the park.
Thank you so very much.

I’m not a sword enthusiast so I can’t say how good it is as an actual sword, but for a decorative sword it is great. It looks great and feels quality. Worth the buy.
