- Forged from T10 carbon steel with a visible hamon line along the blade - the natural result of differential heat treatment and oil quenching that hardens the edge while preserving spine flexibility.
- Full tang construction keeps blade and handle locked in solid alignment; the tsuka is wrapped in black ito over black ray-skin samegawa for a secure, traditional grip feel.
- Gold-black dragon tsuba cast with intricate openwork relief - the dual-tone finish highlights the sculpted dragon motif and bridges the chrome blade to the black handle wrap seamlessly.
- White hardwood lacquer saya features a printed manga-style monochrome portrait scene wrapping the full length - a bold visual contrast against the black sageo cord and bright lacquer base.
- Overall length 41 inches, weight 3 lbs - sized for display mounting or koshirae-style presentation in a standard katana stand (stand not included).

Product Details
The blade is forged from T10 carbon steel, a high-carbon tool steel valued for its edge retention and fine grain structure. Differential heat treatment produces a genuine hamon - the wavy temper line visible along the blade's length - while oil quenching hardens the edge zone and leaves the spine with enough flex to absorb stress. The chrome-finish nagasa runs clean and unadorned, letting the hamon pattern carry the visual weight. Collectors interested in hamon variety can explore the full range in our Gray T10 Carbon Steel Katana collection.
The tsuka is built on a hardwood core and wrapped with black samegawa ray-skin underneath black ito cord tied in the traditional diamond pattern. The menuki hardware accents sit beneath the wrap at their correct positions, and the black sageo cord at the saya opening echoes the handle color for a coherent overall palette.
The tsuba is the standout hardware piece on this build. Cast in a circular form with deep openwork, it depicts a coiling dragon rendered in gold and black - the dual-tone finish separates the raised dragon relief from the pierced background and connects visually to both the black ito above and the chrome blade below. The habaki collar steps down from the tsuba cleanly, holding the blade seated in the saya with a firm fit.
The saya is lacquered hardwood finished in white, and its surface carries a printed monochrome portrait scene - a detailed manga-style composition of figures that wraps the full length of the scabbard. The imagery is rendered in deep blacks and grays against the white ground, giving the saya a gallery-quality graphic presence. A black sageo cord is knotted at the kurigata for carry or display.

Overall length is 41 inches and assembled weight is 3 lbs, packaged in a 43 x 4 x 4 inch box with a shipping weight of 4 lbs. The koshirae-style fittings and white saya make this piece well suited for wall mounting or stand display. Sword stand is not included.
