1095 Carbon Steel Ninjato with Blue-Silver Blade, Black Cord Handle & Dragon Saya

The blade on this ninjato is forged from 1095 carbon steel and finished in a bold blue-silver colorway, with wave engraving running along the flat of the blade from the habaki toward the tip. The blue pigment pools along the spine and edge bevel, while the polished silver base catches light along the shinogi - a combination that makes the 41-inch overall length visually commanding from any angle. At 3 lbs, the sword carries enough presence for display without being unwieldy to handle or reposition.

The tsuka is wrapped in black cord ito over a PU black samegawa base, the diamond cross-pattern pulled tight and evenly spaced across the handle length. Two silver menuki sit beneath the wrap, visible as subtle relief points along the grip. The construction is full tang, with the steel running completely through the handle for structural integrity throughout the piece.

The tsuba is black iron with an ornate scroll cutout pattern, finished with gold-tone fittings at the seppa contact points. The pierced ironwork creates negative space around the scroll motifs, and the gold accents tie visually to the gold habaki at the blade's base. This black-and-gold combination is one of the more distinctive hardware choices in the koshirae style, standing apart from plain silver fittings.

The saya is crafted from hardwood with a silver lacquer base coat, then hand-painted with a dragon theme - clouds and figure forms rendered in blue-grey tones across the upper half of the scabbard. A black sageo cord is knotted at the kurigata in a braided diamond pattern, matching the tsuka ito color and tying the overall color scheme together. The silver saya and blue blade create a cohesive blue-silver-black palette across the full mounted piece. Explore more pieces in the Blue Spring Steel Ninjato collection for similar blade colorways.

For collectors interested in the ninja sword form factor specifically, this piece fits squarely within the Historical Ninja Sword category - straight-profile blade, compact koshirae fittings, and the distinctive saya presentation that defines the style. Overall dimensions: 41 inches length, 3 lbs weight, ships in a 43 x 4 x 4 inch package at 4 lbs. Sword stand not included.
