Product Details

The obsidian katana opens with a 28.34-inch blade forged from 1060 carbon steel, heat-treated to 60 HRC. The entire blade surface carries a deep black finish that absorbs light rather than reflecting it, giving the edge a stealthy, understated presence. Full tang construction runs the length of the handle, providing structural integrity and a forward-weighted balance that feels substantial in hand. This is a sword built for collectors drawn to the darker end of the Black Katana spectrum.

The tsuka stretches 10.62 inches, wrapped in black PU leather cord over a black samegawa underlayer. The diamond-pattern wrap is tight and uniform, creating a grip that is both visually seamless and functionally secure. Black menuki sit beneath the wrapping, keeping the entire handle in a single unbroken tone from kashira to fuchi.

At the guard position, a flat iron tsuba in matte black carries a subtle floral motif in low relief. The real visual anchor sits just below - a polished brass habaki engraved with a traditional Japanese kamon (family crest) featuring a geometric floral design. This brass accent, paired with a thin brass seppa ring, provides the only warm-toned contrast on the entire sword and draws the eye naturally to the transition between handle and blade.

The 29.52-inch hardwood saya is fully sheathed in woven black PU leather with a tight cross-hatch basket weave texture. A brass kurikata near the mouth holds a leather sageo strap with metal ring fittings, designed for shoulder or back carry. The koiguchi fits snugly against the habaki, and the overall saya construction feels solid without unnecessary bulk.

At 40.15 inches overall and 2.53 lbs, this obsidian katana balances visual impact with practical weight. Every element - from the blackened blade to the leather-wrapped saya to the brass kamon accent - works together to create a cohesive, modern interpretation of the Japanese sword. It sits comfortably among Full Tang Katana offerings built for serious collectors who value bold, monochromatic design.

  • Forged from 1060 carbon steel with a full tang structure, this black-finished blade measures 28.34 inches and reaches 60 HRC hardness for lasting edge retention.
  • The 10.62-inch tsuka is wrapped in black PU leather over black samegawa, delivering a dark monochrome grip with a secure diamond-pattern hold.
  • Iron tsuba with a flat round profile features subtle floral relief on a matte black surface, accented by a brass habaki engraved with a traditional kamon crest.
  • Hardwood saya is fully wrapped in woven black PU leather with a cross-hatch texture, fitted with a brass kurikata and an adjustable leather carry strap.
  • Overall length of 40.15 inches at 2.53 lbs makes this katana a balanced and substantial display piece suited for collectors who favor stealth-inspired aesthetics.

When I first found this page, I was so blown away by the amount of stock that was available I had such a hard time choosing what one to buy first. But im so glad I picked and finally got it in the mail. I was even more blown away when I opened it and held it. I'm still so very excited to have one and will most definitely be getting more. Also I'd love a Samurai Jack style Katana. I'd definitely get one of those. Thank you and a very, very job well done.
