Product Details
The blade is forged from 1000-layer folded melaleuca steel, producing a deep red finish that sets this katana apart from conventional steel tones. The folding process creates subtle layered patterns visible along the 28.74-inch nagasa, while spring steel construction delivers 58 HRC hardness. This is a striking addition to any Red Folded Steel Katana Sword collection.
The tsuka measures 10.23 inches and is wrapped in black PU leather over real black samegawa. The black ito follows a traditional crosshatch pattern, and the underlying white rayskin peeks through at the diamond gaps, adding contrast and improving grip texture throughout the handle length.
At the junction of blade and handle sits a copper tsuba bearing an elaborate dragon motif in silver-tone relief, surrounded by scrolling cloud designs. A gold-tone habaki and fuchi-kashira frame the guard, creating a layered metallic accent that pairs with the pommel cap featuring matching dragon detailing. This piece fits naturally among our Dragon Katana collection.
The hardwood saya is finished in piano lacquer and wrapped in grey PU leather embossed with a continuous floral scroll pattern. A black and white braided sageo cord is tied at the kurikata with a traditional knot, adding both function and visual texture to the scabbard. The saya measures 30.7 inches.
Overall length reaches 41 inches with a total weight of 4.4 lbs. This full tang katana balances its red folded steel blade, dragon-themed copper fittings, and textured grey saya into a cohesive collectible that commands attention on any display stand.
