Product Details

The blade on this katana is forged from high manganese steel and polished to a bright chrome finish, running the full 41 inches from tip to tang. The full-tang construction means the steel extends completely through the handle, contributing to the sword's solid 3-pound balance. The nagasa shows a clean, even grind with a subtle curvature characteristic of traditional katana geometry - no hamon is present on this steel type.

The tsuka is wrapped in a black textured material with a crosshatch diamond pattern, secured by two gold-toned mekugi pins. The grip is firm and consistent along its length, with a small ring fixture and hanging bead at the kashira end that adds a subtle decorative accent to the overall silhouette.

The tsuba is a plain oval in matte black, with no cutouts or decorative motifs. Its restrained design keeps the transition between blade and handle clean and uninterrupted - well suited to the overall monochromatic color scheme of this build.

The saya is crafted from hardwood with a matte black finish, shaped to a smooth taper and finished without surface lacquer gloss.

The beige sageo is tightly wrapped in even horizontal coils across the upper portion of the saya, tied off with a structured knot - a clean contrast against the black wood.

At 41 inches overall and 3 pounds, this manganese steel katana is a well-proportioned collectible piece. Packaged in a 43 x 4 x 4 inch box at a shipping weight of 4 pounds. Sword stand not included. For more handwood saya options, browse our Handwood Saya Katana collection.
