Product Details
The blade on this katana is forged from high manganese steel and finished in a deep dark red tone, with a clearly defined hamon line tracing the edge from kissaki to habaki. The two-tone effect - red body meeting the white temper line - gives this piece an immediately recognizable visual identity that sets it apart from standard polished-steel reproductions. At 41 inches overall and 3 lbs, it balances well and carries the proportions of a traditional katana. For more pieces in this style, browse our Real Red Sword collection.
The tsuka is built with a full-tang core, wrapped first in black PU samegawa and then bound tightly with black ito cord in a classic diamond hishigami pattern. Menuki details are seated beneath the wrap, and the black kashira and fuchi hardware complete the handle assembly cleanly.
The gold-tone tsuba is the visual centerpiece of the fittings. Cast with a samurai figure amid foliage in detailed relief, it carries a warm antique-gold finish that contrasts well against both the red blade and the black handle components. The seppa on either side are finished to match.
The saya is made from hardwood with a gloss black lacquer finish. A bold white vine motif is engraved along the body of the scabbard, giving it graphic energy that reads well on display. The red sageo cord is tied in a traditional knot at the koiguchi, echoing the red of the blade's hamon zone and pulling the full color palette together. If you enjoy the black-and-red aesthetic, the Multi-colored Manganese Steel Katana collection offers additional variations worth exploring.
