Product Details
The 29-inch blade is forged from folded T10 carbon steel, producing visible Damascus-style grain patterns along the surface. Clay tempering creates a distinct real hamon line while achieving differential hardness - the edge reaches 58 HRC for solid retention, while the spine remains flexible. The hand-finished edge and traditional polishing process bring out the natural character of the steel, making each blade visually unique. This Clay Tempered Katana represents a refined approach to classical Japanese blade craft.;
The 10.25-inch tsuka uses full tang construction, with the blade extending through the entire handle for balanced weight distribution and structural integrity. Black polyurethane leather wraps over a black samegawa base layer, delivering a textured grip surface that echoes the look of traditional ray skin. Black ito cord is tightly wound in an alternating diamond pattern, providing additional traction and a clean, understated aesthetic.
The gold-tone alloy tsuba features a round disc shape engraved with Japanese kanji characters and a bamboo leaf motif. A small gold habaki collar sits at the blade-tsuba junction, adding visual contrast against the chrome-toned steel. The guard's weathered brass finish gives it an aged, authentic appearance that complements the overall color scheme.
The 29.5-inch hardwood saya is the centerpiece of this katana's visual identity. An intricately embossed dragon relief wraps around the scabbard body, rendered in gold, copper, and deep orange tones against a glossy black lacquer base. The dragon motif symbolizes power and wisdom in Japanese tradition. Brown and gold braided sageo cord is tied at the koiguchi in a decorative knot pattern that echoes the warm metallic palette of the dragon artwork.
At 41 inches in total length and 4.4 lbs, this T10 Carbon Steel Katana balances substantial presence with displayable proportions. The combination of folded Damascus steel construction, clay tempered hamon, and detailed dragon-themed saya creates a collector's piece that rewards close inspection from every angle. Sword stand or holder is sold separately.
