Product Details

The blade is forged from manganese steel and finished in an even black that runs from tip to base, presenting the clean straight profile of the chokuto form. At 41 inches overall and 3 lbs., the piece carries visible weight without bulk, and the precision-ground edge follows the line of the blade without interruption. No hamon is present - the black finish is uniform and intentional, giving the nagasa a graphic clarity that suits the ninjato aesthetic.

The tsuka is wrapped in black cord ito over a PU black samegawa base, with a consistent diamond-pattern braid that holds firm at the fuchi and kashira. The kashira itself is a carved black piece with sculpted relief detail, and a pale habaki collar provides a clean separation point between blade and handle. The gold-toned square tsuba carries a stamped mon design on its face - compact in scale, adding a quiet contrast against the all-black handle assembly.

The saya is the most visually distinctive element of the build. Constructed from hardwood and finished in natural lacquer, it is predominantly black with a scattering of gold-speckle detail distributed across its surface - dense near the koiguchi and dispersing toward the kojiri. A black sageo cord is braided and tied at the kurikata in the traditional manner, with the cord ends left as fringe tassels. This Black Saya Ninjato presentation is cohesive and deliberately styled.

The full-tang construction means the steel extends continuously through the handle - no hidden tang, no pinned assembly. This is standard for the koshirae-style build, and the fit between components is tight at all contact points. The overall package measures 43 x 4 x 4 inches and ships at 4 lbs.

This piece works well as a wall display or shelf piece for collectors drawn to the Black Ninja Sword aesthetic - the black-and-gold palette is consistent across every component, and the ninjato silhouette is immediately recognizable. Sword stand not included.
