Product Details
The blade on this wakizashi is forged from high manganese steel and finished in a deep blue tone that shifts subtly along the length of the sword. A clearly defined hamon runs the full edge, its wavy white line standing out sharply against the blue body - a result of the hand-finishing process rather than clay tempering. The overall sword length is 31 inches, with the blade accounting for the majority of that reach. For collectors drawn to blue-finished pieces, our Blue Manganese Steel Wakizashi collection offers a curated selection of similar builds.
The full tang extends through the entire handle, providing structural continuity from tip to pommel. The tsuka is wrapped in black PU samegawa beneath a tightly executed black cord ito in the traditional diamond pattern - visible in the top-down detail shot as a clean, consistent wrap with no gaps or loose sections. The black sageo cord completes the handle assembly.
The tsuba is a standout feature of this koshirae build. Cast in iron with a black and gold two-tone finish, it features an open geometric lattice pattern that allows light to pass through the cutouts. The gold accent around the inner ring adds a warm contrast to the otherwise dark hardware palette, giving the fittings a polished, intentional look.
The saya is crafted from hardwood finished in a dark blue lacquer with a marble-style surface scattered with gold flecks. The effect is visible across the full body of the scabbard and gives each piece a distinct, non-repeating pattern. The black koiguchi and kojiri fittings at either end carry subtle relief carving that ties the hardware together cohesively.
At 3 lbs and 31 inches overall, this wakizashi is proportioned as a short sword in the classic Japanese tradition. Packaged in a 33 x 4 x 4 inch box with a shipping weight of 4 lbs, it arrives ready for wall display or shelf presentation. Note that a sword stand or holder is not included. Collectors comparing short sword formats may also want to browse the 1060 Wakizashi collection for alternative steel and finish options.
