Damascus Steel Katana with Marble Saya, Real Hamon, Gold Chrysanthemum Tsuba - Full Tang
- Folded Damascus steel blade with a visible real hamon temper line - the hardness differential from the heat treatment process creates a distinct wavy pattern along the edge.

- Gold-tone chrysanthemum tsuba cast with ornate floral relief detailing - the aged bronze finish gives it an antique character that pairs naturally with the marble saya.

- Black sageo cord and tasseled fittings complete the koshirae-style mounting, tying together the high-contrast black handle and pale marble sheath into a cohesive display piece.

Product Details
The blade on this katana is forged from folded Damascus steel, producing the layered grain pattern visible along the flat and a genuine hamon temper line tracing the edge. The heat treatment process creates a hardness differential between edge and spine, resulting in the real hamon that distinguishes this piece from surface-etched imitations. For collectors interested in Damascus Steel Katana options, this Damascus construction offers one of the most visually dynamic grain expressions available.;
The tsuka is wrapped in traditional black cotton cord over a foundation of genuine white samegawa ray-skin. The diamond-pattern ito wrap is firm and even, anchored at both ends and accented with a black tassel hanging from the fuchi. The full tang extends completely through the handle, providing structural integrity across the entire assembly.
The tsuba is cast in a chrysanthemum floral motif with an aged gold-tone finish. Petals radiate outward in layered relief, and the surface carries a darkened patina in the recesses that emphasizes the sculptural detail. The seppa and habaki are finished in matching gold-tone metal, maintaining visual continuity between blade and handle.
The saya is crafted from hardwood and finished with a hand-painted marble lacquer surface - a cream and off-white base broken by natural brown veining that runs the full length of the scabbard. No two pieces are identical given the hand-applied nature of the finish. Black sageo cord is knotted at the kurigata, completing the koshirae-style mounting. This marble saya treatment makes it a standout among Damascus Steel Katana designs.
Overall length is 41 inches and the piece weighs 3 lbs. Packaged in a 43 x 4 x 4 inch box at a shipping weight of 4 lbs. The sword stand or holder is not included.
