Product Details
The blade on this katana is forged from high manganese steel and finished in a deep blue tone that catches light with a clean, polished sheen. A hand-engraved wave pattern runs along the spine, adding a textural layer that sets this piece apart from standard production swords. The hamon line is visible along the edge, lending it the classic visual signature of traditional Japanese sword craft. If you're exploring the full range of Blue Katana Sword options, this piece sits firmly in the premium end of that category.
The tsuka (handle) is built with a full tang core - the steel runs the entire length from tip to pommel with no break in the metal. Black cord is wrapped in a traditional diamond pattern over PU black samegawa, giving the grip both visual texture and a secure hold. Alloy fittings at the fuchi and kashira carry the gold hardware tone consistent with the rest of the koshirae.
The tsuba is an ornate scroll design cast in gold-black alloy, featuring open filigree cutouts and a yin-yang menuki set just above it on the handle. The gold tone of the tsuba creates a deliberate contrast against the blue blade and black wrap - a color relationship that defines the visual identity of this sword. The seppa on both sides of the tsuba are finished to match.
The saya is shaped from hardwood and finished with a premium natural lacquer in a mixed black-and-gold color scheme that mirrors the sword's hardware palette. The black sageo cord is attached at the kurigata, allowing for traditional carry positioning or display mounting. The lacquer surface is smooth with good depth, holding up to handling without surface damage under normal use conditions.
Overall dimensions: 40.5 inches in total length, 1.26 inches in blade width, 0.28 inches in blade thickness, and 3.2 lbs. This is a full koshirae presentation piece built for collectors and enthusiasts who want authentic construction details without compromising on visual impact. For those interested in Leather Manganese Steel Katana alternatives using the same core material, that collection offers additional handle and finish variations worth comparing.
