Product Details

This katana features a 28.3-inch blade forged from 1045 carbon steel with a distinctive baked blue finish. The surface displays a visible wave-like hamon line running along the edge, adding visual depth to the blue-toned steel. Hardened to 58 HRC, the blade arrives sharpened with a hand-finished edge. Full tang construction ensures the steel extends completely through the handle for structural reliability.

The 10.2-inch tsuka is wrapped in light blue cotton ito over white ray-skin samegawa, creating a clean diamond pattern with bright white rayskin diamonds visible between each wrap. The combination delivers both a non-slip grip surface and a refined aesthetic that ties into the sword's overall blue color scheme.

At the junction of blade and handle sits a round blue alloy tsuba featuring an open cutout design with multiple elongated slots. A brass-toned habaki collar with textured detailing provides a warm gold accent against the blue tones, adding visual contrast to the fittings. This design pairs well with other pieces from the Blue Wave Theme Blade Japanese Samurai Swords collection.

The glossy blue hardwood saya measures proportionally to house the full blade length and features a high-gloss lacquer finish in deep blue. A matching blue sageo cord is tied in a traditional knot around the saya's kurikata, with a small gold-rimmed ring accent at the knot. The saya's glossy surface contrasts subtly with the matte texture of the tsuka wrapping.

Overall length reaches 40.5 inches with a blade width of 1.18 inches and a total weight of 2.45 lbs. Every component - from blade to saya - maintains a cohesive blue palette with brass-gold accents, making this a visually unified collectible. For more options in this steel type, explore the Full Tang 1045 Carbon Steel Sword collection.

  • Forged from 1045 carbon steel with a baked blue finish on the blade, hardened to 58 HRC for lasting durability and a striking visual profile unique to this piece.
  • Full tang construction runs the entire length of the handle, delivering solid balance at an overall weight of 2.45 lbs - built with structural integrity throughout.
  • Light blue cotton ito wrapping over white ray-skin samegawa provides a secure, textured grip across the 10.2-inch tsuka, pairing function with refined color coordination.
  • Blue alloy tsuba with an open circular cutout design and brass-toned habaki creates a bold contrast at the junction of blade and handle.
  • Glossy blue hardwood saya with matching blue sageo cord and decorative knot completes the cohesive blue theme - overall length measures 40.5 inches.
