Ninjato Replica in Stainless Steel with Dragon Engraving, Gold Tsuba & Black Lacquer Saya

The stainless steel blade on this ninjato replica carries a hand-engraved dragon scene along its flat, etched directly into the polished chrome surface. A hamon line traces the edge profile, giving the blade visual layering typically associated with traditional Japanese sword geometry. The straight single-edged profile and forward-angled tip are characteristic of the ninjato form - lean, direct, and visually striking from any angle.

The tsuka is wrapped in black cord over a white ray-skin base, using a traditional diamond-pattern koshirae wrap. Two small gold menuki ornaments are visible beneath the lacing, adding fine detail at close range. The full-tang construction runs the blade steel through the entire handle length, keeping the assembly solid and balanced at 4 lbs overall.

The tsuba is a round, plain-profile disc finished in gold-tone copper. Its warm metallic color sits at the exact point where blade meets handle, anchoring the transition visually and providing a deliberate contrast to the surrounding black hardware. This is the single brightest accent in an otherwise monochromatic build. Collectors looking for Copper Tsuba Ninjato designs will find this color pairing immediately recognizable.

The hardwood saya is finished in high-gloss black lacquer - smooth, even, and reflective enough to mirror the blade when set alongside it. A black sageo cord is tied through the kurikata, which is fitted with a rounded black toggle. The entire scabbard assembly stays within the same tight black palette as the handle, creating a unified presentation when the sword is sheathed.

At 41 inches overall and packaged in a 43 x 4 x 4 inch box at 5 lbs shipping weight, this ninjato is sized for standard horizontal wall display or upright stand presentation. The dragon engraving, gold tsuba, and gloss lacquer saya make it a distinctive addition to any Japanese sword collection.
