Damascus Steel Japanese Katana with Green Ray-Skin Saya - Copper Wave Tsuba, Full Tang

Built around a Damascus folded steel blade, this Japanese katana showcases the layered forging technique that produces a one-of-a-kind wave pattern across the steel surface. Each fold compresses and aligns the metal grain, resulting in both visual complexity and structural consistency throughout the blade.

The green genuine ray-skin saya is the centerpiece of the visual presentation - its natural pearl-like texture catches light at every angle, offering a distinctive alternative to the traditional black scabbard. The ray-skin surface is both durable and visually striking, making it a standout feature for display.

At the guard, a copper tsuba carved with a big wave motif draws on classic Japanese artistic traditions. The warm copper tone contrasts naturally against the green saya and black cord wrap, creating a layered color palette that feels intentional and cohesive from tip to pommel.

The handle follows traditional construction: black cotton cord wrapped in tight, even rows over authentic white samegawa (ray-skin), with full tang steel running the entire length for structural integrity. At 41 inches overall and 3.0 pounds, the katana carries the proportions and presence expected of a display-grade Japanese sword.

Part of our Damascus katana collection, this piece represents the intersection of traditional Japanese forging methods and refined visual design - a collectible built for enthusiasts who value both craftsmanship and aesthetics in their Japanese sword display.
