Manganese Steel Blue Blade Katana Sword with Gold Alloy Tsuba in Black Piano Lacquer Saya - Full Tang Japanese Collectible

This full tang katana features a 28.34-inch blade forged from manganese steel, hardened to 62 HRC. The blue-finished surface carries a prominent hamon line that runs the length of the edge in a jagged, wave-like pattern, creating a striking contrast between the deep blue body and the bright steel edge. The hand-finished edge tapers to a clean kissaki point, visible in the polished tip section where raw steel meets the blue coating.

The 10.62-inch tsuka is built on a hardwood core wrapped in white real rayskin for grip texture, then bound in blue cotton cord using a traditional crisscross pattern. Gold-tone menuki ornaments sit beneath the wrap, and the kashira at the pommel matches the gold-tone color scheme throughout the fittings.

At the center of the design sits a gold-tone alloy tsuba shaped like an open fan or shell, with intricate openwork cutouts in a mosaic pattern. This guard adds a sculptural quality to the sword and pairs naturally with the gold accents on the habaki collar and other hardware.

The saya is crafted from hardwood and coated in piano lacquer, producing a glossy black finish that mirrors light cleanly. A blue sageo cord is tied at the kurikata in a decorative knot, matching the handle wrap and tying the entire blue-and-gold color scheme together.
