Manganese Steel Wakizashi with Rainbow Blue Blade in Black Leather-Wrapped Saya with Silver Alloy Fittings

This wakizashi features a full tang blade forged from high manganese steel, finished with a deep rainbow blue coating that shifts between navy, violet, and teal tones depending on the angle of light. The edge is precision-finished to a clean bevel, and the steel provides reliable durability and wear resistance suited for a collectible piece.;

The tsuka is built on a hardwood core layered with black artificial samegawa and wrapped tightly in black leather. At the pommel, a gold-tone alloy kashira bears a circular crest emblem, while a silver-tone alloy collar transitions cleanly into the blade. The grip feels substantial at 3 lbs total weight, giving the wakizashi a grounded, well-balanced presence.

Rather than a traditional disc tsuba, this wakizashi uses an integrated alloy collar design that keeps the profile sleek and modern. The silver-tone metal is lightly textured with engraved patterns that echo the decorative bands found on the saya.

The saya is carved from hardwood and fully wrapped in black PU leather using a tight basket-weave pattern. Three silver-tone alloy bands encircle the scabbard, each engraved with flowing dragon motifs in relief. These fittings at the koiguchi, center, and kojiri give the piece a cohesive look that pairs well with other Leather Saya Wakizashi in a growing collection.

At 31 inches in overall length, this wakizashi sits comfortably in the short sword category and makes a strong visual statement on a wall mount or shelf display. The contrast between the Black Wakizashi finish and the black leather saya creates a refined, modern aesthetic that stands apart from traditional lacquer presentations.
