1060 Carbon Steel Katana with Golden Blade and Ornate Gold Alloy Tsuba in Black Saya

This katana features a full tang blade forged from 1060 carbon steel, finished with a warm golden tone that runs the entire length of the 28.3-inch nagasa. The steel is hand-sharpened to a refined edge, and the blade's surface carries a smooth, even luster visible from tip to habaki. At 1.2 inches wide, the blade has solid visual weight that pairs naturally with its gold-toned aesthetic.

The tsuka is wrapped in gold leather ito laced over black PU samegawa in a traditional diamond pattern. The kashira at the pommel is an intricately sculpted gold alloy cap featuring bold scrollwork and organic relief - a standout detail that signals the level of craftsmanship invested in this piece. The fuchi collar matches in both tone and ornamentation.

At the intersection of blade and handle sits an ornate gold alloy tsuba with detailed relief work. Its sculpted design adds depth and visual interest without adding unnecessary bulk, and it blends seamlessly with the gold fittings above and below. For collectors drawn to Gold Katana designs, this tsuba is one of the more elaborate examples available.

The saya is crafted from hardwood with a glossy black lacquer finish. A gold kurikata sits near the mouth, threaded with a black sageo cord that provides a clean, purposeful accent. The contrast between the deep black saya and gold koiguchi fitting creates a refined two-tone presentation when the sword is sheathed.

With an overall length of 40.5 inches and a weight of 2.55 lbs, this katana strikes a balance between presence and proportion. The unified gold-and-black color scheme - carried through every fitting from kashira to koiguchi - makes it a cohesive display piece suited for wall mounts or stand presentation.
