Product Details

The 28.74-inch full tang blade is forged from manganese steel, heat-treated to 58 HRC, and finished in a striking deep red tone. Running along the edge is a bold lightning-pattern hamon line that contrasts sharply against the crimson surface - a visual signature that sets this piece apart from standard katana replicas. Among our Red Blade Samurai Sword collection, this katana stands out for its combination of structural integrity and dramatic aesthetics.

The 10.23-inch tsuka is built on a hardwood core, layered with PU black samegawa for texture, then tightly wrapped in black PU leather. The wrap follows a traditional diamond pattern, and small gold menuki accents sit beneath the cord, adding subtle detail visible at close inspection. The kashira at the pommel features a sculpted petal design in dark metal, completing the handle assembly.

At the junction of blade and handle, the alloy tsuba displays a gold-toned openwork floral motif. The design features interconnected petal shapes with fine geometric cutouts, creating an intricate guard that complements both the red blade and the dark handle. A matching gold habaki collar seats the blade firmly into the tsuba.

The hardwood saya is coated in piano lacquer and finished with a dramatic gradient effect - deep black at the mouth transitioning to warm gold speckles that intensify toward the kojiri. The black sageo cord is tied in a traditional knot, and a small metal kurigata with a polished inset anchors it to the scabbard body. This saya finish gives the piece a refined, almost celestial quality.

At 41 inches overall and weighing 4.4 lbs, this katana carries real presence on a wall mount or sword stand. The full tang construction runs the entire length through the handle, and the manganese steel blade delivers the heft and balance expected of a quality Red Katana Sword. It is designed for collectors who value bold color, detailed fittings, and traditional Japanese sword proportions in a single display piece.

I also paid for a stand but never received the confirmation number. But my PayPal account was charged.
