Product Details

The blade is forged from high manganese steel and finished in a deep blue tone, with a hand-polished hamon running the full length of the edge. The contrast between the blue body and the bright white edge line gives this katana a visually distinctive profile that sets it apart from standard polished finishes. The precision-finished edge and full tang construction reflect attention to structural integrity across the 41-inch overall length.

The tsuka is built over a full tang core, wrapped in brown cord in a traditional diamond pattern over a red samegawa underlayer. The red ray-skin texture shows through the gaps in the wrap, creating a brown-red color combination that adds depth and grip texture to the handle. This Authentic Katana construction style keeps the handle firmly assembled through the tang-and-mekugi pin system.

The bronze chrysanthemum tsuba is the standout fitting on this build - cast in an open-work floral pattern with a rough, aged surface texture. The bronze tone ties directly into the kurikata on the saya, maintaining a consistent metallic accent across the koshirae. The seppa and habaki complete the collar assembly between the blade and guard.

The saya is crafted from PU leather with a dark brown, pebbled texture finish, curved to follow the blade's natural sori. A brass-tone kurikata with a chrysanthemum detail sits mid-saya for sageo attachment, echoing the tsuba's floral motif. This Brown Leather Scabbard Katana presents a warm, earthy color palette from tip to tip.

Overall length is 41 inches and shipping weight is 5 pounds. The complete koshirae-style mountings - brown leather saya, brown-red wrapped tsuka, and bronze chrysanthemum tsuba - make this a strong addition to any Japanese sword display. Sword stand is not included.

  • Forged from high manganese steel, the blue-finished blade features a visible hamon line along the edge, hand-polished to bring out the steel's contrast between the blue body and bright white edge.
  • Full tang construction runs the length of the tsuka, providing solid balance across the 41-inch overall length - a key structural detail for serious collectors and display enthusiasts.
  • The brown-red tsuka is wrapped in brown cord over a red samegawa (faux ray-skin) underlayer, creating a diamond pattern with red accents visible through the wrap - both visually striking and secure in hand.
  • A bronze chrysanthemum tsuba anchors the fittings with a floral open-work design, matching the bronze kojiri accent on the brown PU leather saya for a cohesive, earthy tone throughout.
  • The brown PU leather saya features a textured, pebbled surface finish with a brass-tone kurikata fitting, complementing the dark red-brown color palette of the full koshirae mountings.
