Product Details

The blade on this katana is forged from T10 carbon steel and treated through a differential hardening process that produces a visible, authentic hamon line along the edge. The hand-polished finish brings out the contrast between the hardened edge and the softer spine, giving the blade a clean, distinctive look that collectors of Hand Forged Katana will immediately recognize.

The tsuka is built on a full tang foundation, with white ray-skin (samegawa) beneath a tightly wound black cotton cord wrap. White menuki accents appear through the diamond-shaped gaps in the wrap, adding a subtle detail that breaks the monochrome palette without disrupting the overall tone.

At the blade collar, the black circular tsuba carries an engraved peacock design - fine feather detail and layered plumage fill the face of the guard, framed by gold-tone habaki and a gold-trimmed rectangular seppa beneath. The fittings maintain a consistent metal accent that threads through the entire koshirae.

The saya is crafted from hardwood with a gloss black lacquer finish. Gold-tone ribbed rings are spaced evenly down its length, creating a segmented visual rhythm that runs from the koiguchi to the kojiri. A black sageo cord is tied at the kurikata, completing the mount in traditional style.

Total length is 41 inches and the sword weighs 3 lbs. No sword stand or holder is included. This piece is intended as a collector replica and display piece.
