Product Details
This katana features a T10 carbon steel blade that has been folded and clay tempered to produce a genuine hamon line visible along the edge. The differential hardening process yields a hardened edge at 60 HRC while keeping the spine flexible, and the blade surface shows a layered grain from the folding. The hand-finished edge is polished to a chrome tone that contrasts with the darker steel body, creating a striking visual profile. As part of the Clay Tempered Japanese Samurai Swords collection, this piece represents traditional heat treatment at its most authentic.
The tsuka measures 6.3 inches and is built on a full tang core wrapped in red samegawa made from polyurethane leather. Black ito cord is tightly wound in a traditional diamond pattern over the samegawa, with the red underlayer visible through the gaps. The result is a comfortable, non-slip grip with a bold black and red color scheme that carries through the entire sword.
At the guard position sits a round black alloy tsuba carved with a detailed floral motif - leaves and blossoms in raised relief across the disc face. A thin gold-tone brass ring lines the inner edge of the tsuba where it meets the habaki, adding a subtle warm accent that bridges the dark guard and the polished blade.
The saya is crafted from hardwood and finished in a deep red piano lacquer that gives it a glossy, mirror-like surface. Dark painted artwork depicting floral or vine-like designs wraps around the lower portion of the scabbard, complementing the tsuba theme. A black sageo cord is knotted at the kurikata, completing the traditional fittings. The saya measures 13 inches and fits the blade snugly for secure storage.
Overall the katana stretches 41 inches in total length and weighs 1.5 lbs, making it a well-proportioned piece for both wall mounting and in-hand appreciation. This Red T10 katana pairs authentic Japanese forging technique with a bold red and black color palette, suited for collectors who value both craftsmanship and visual impact. Please note that the sword stand is not included.
