Product Details
The blade on this katana is forged from 1060 carbon steel, precision-finished to a polished chrome surface with consistent geometry from habaki to kissaki. The handcrafted construction reflects traditional swordsmithing techniques applied to a high-carbon medium-grade steel that balances edge retention with visual clarity. Each sword is individually made, so minor variations in finish are expected and inherent to the handmade process. For collectors interested in this steel grade, the full 1060 Steel Katana collection offers additional options at this specification level.
The tsuka is built with a full tang running the entire length of the handle, wrapped in black cord tsuka-ito over a red PU samegawa base. The diamond pattern of the ito binding pulls tight against the underlying wrap, exposing the red samegawa at each crossover point and producing a sharp black-and-red contrast that is immediately visible in hand.
The tsuba is a black iron piece with a geometric cutout design - four symmetrical openings arranged around a solid center. The pattern is clean and angular, providing visual weight at the guard without decorative embellishment. Fuchi and kashira fittings continue the black metal theme across the full koshirae assembly.
The saya is the most visually distinctive element of this build. Constructed from hardwood with a lacquer finish, it is wrapped in a white-and-black leopard print pattern that runs from koiguchi to kojiri. A black sageo cord is knotted at the kurikata, contrasting against the patterned saya surface. The combination of the high-contrast saya against the black handle creates a deliberate, bold aesthetic.
Total length is 41 inches and the sword weighs 3 lbs. Package dimensions are 43 x 4 x 4 inches with a shipping weight of 4 lbs. Sword stand is not included.
