Product Details
The blade on this nihonto-style katana replica is forged from manganese steel and finished to a polished chrome surface. The full-tang construction runs the full length of the handle core, and the hand-finished edge reflects light cleanly along the curve of the traditional Japanese blade profile. At 41 inches overall, it carries a balanced weight of 4 pounds that makes it a substantial piece for display.
The tsuka is wrapped in beige ito cord over a white PU samegawa base, following the traditional diamond-pattern (hishigami) binding seen in koshirae-style construction. Black menuki hardware is set into the wrap at two points, adding depth and detail to the handle. The cord color, material, and layout are consistent with classic Japanese sword furniture styling.
The black iron tsuba is the structural centerpiece of the fittings. Its open-scroll fretwork design features circular cutouts arranged in a ring pattern around the central blade opening, with visible surface texture from the casting. A silver habaki collar sits just beyond the tsuba, providing a clean transition point between the blade and guard.
The hardwood saya is where this piece makes its strongest visual statement. Lacquered in a white base and hand-painted with a full dragon scene in green, red, yellow, and gray tones, the scabbard depicts a coiling dragon across its entire length. The black and gold-flecked lacquer near the koiguchi adds contrast at the opening. For more pieces built around dragon-themed sword furniture, see our Red Dragon Katana collection.
The beige sageo cord is knotted at the kurikata in a traditional looped tie, keeping the color palette consistent between the handle and the scabbard. Overall dimensions place the sword at 41 inches with a shipping package of 43 x 4 x 4 inches. The sword stand is not included. If you are exploring other scroll and openwork guard designs, the Dragon Tsuba Katana collection offers additional options in that style.
