Product Details

The 28.5-inch 1045 carbon steel blade defines this chokuto ninjato with its straight silhouette and polished chrome finish. Hardened to 58 HRC, the steel holds a clean hamon line that traces the full length of the nagasa, giving the flat profile a visual depth rarely seen at this price point. The sharpened edge is hand-finished and runs the entire blade length on a full-tang core that extends through the handle for solid one-piece rigidity.

At 10.25 inches, the tsuka is wrapped in black cotton cord using a tight, even diagonal pattern. Purple menuki ornaments are set beneath the wrap at regular intervals, their color catching the light at each gap in the binding - an understated detail that sets this handle apart from standard all-black fittings. The overall grip feel is firm and secure without bulk.

The black alloy tsuba carries an ornate scroll cutout theme, its open negative space giving the guard a layered, almost architectural look. Gold-tone fuchi fittings seat cleanly against both faces of the guard, tying the hardware together without competing with the bold saya below. The koshirae style mounting brings all these components into a cohesive, traditional assembly.

The saya is the visual centerpiece. Red hardwood lacquered to a high-gloss piano finish is overlaid with a white crackle-vein pattern that resembles lightning or fine porcelain - no two pieces are identical. A red kojiri endcap with a small oval accent medallion finishes the tip, while a black sageo cord wraps the mouth of the scabbard for a clean contrast against the deep red. Collectors drawn to Red Ninja Sword designs will recognize this saya as one of the more striking finishes available.

Totaling 40.5 inches overall and weighing 4.5 lb., this ninjato sits in a practical size range for wall mounting or open display. It belongs to the koshirae style and represents an accessible entry point into the Darkred 1045 Carbon Steel Ninjato category for collectors who want authentic proportions, real steel construction, and a color scheme that commands attention on any shelf.

Originally sent item with different colors than the picture. Was told that the did not have the exact color as shown. I asked for a return. They sent a return shipping label. I sent the item back. While the item was in transfer, the sword in the correct color scabbard and handle inlays showed up on my doorstep. Happy that I got the correct item. Could have let me know that it was coming.
