T10 Carbon Steel Katana with Teal Lacquer Saya, Koi Tsuba & Dark Blue Ito Wrap

The blade is forged from T10 carbon steel and measures 28.3 inches along the nagasa, with a full tang running the length of the handle for solid structural integrity. A visible hamon line traces the edge, produced during the heat-treatment process and hand-finished to bring out the steel's natural contrast. The polished, chrome-toned surface highlights the curvature and geometry that define the katana silhouette. Collectors looking for a piece that combines traditional materials with strong visual presence will find this fits naturally alongside other works in the Green T10 Carbon Steel Katana category.

The tsuka is 10.2 inches long, wrapped in dark blue ito over a white same (ray-skin) base. The diamond-pattern wrap is tightly executed, creating a clean geometric surface along the handle. The same beneath shows through the gaps in the ito, adding texture and depth to the grip construction.

A gold-tone alloy tsuba anchors the transition between blade and handle. The tsuba face is cast with a koi fish motif in detailed relief - scaled body, flowing fins, and wave elements fill the oval plate on both sides. The gold tone of the tsuba and matching fittings (fuchi and kashira) create a warm metallic accent against the blue ito.

The saya is crafted from hardwood and finished in a teal lacquer with a mottled, marble-style surface that blends green, blue, and brown tones across its length. A braided blue sageo is knotted at the kurigata in a traditional style, with a single amber bead detail at the knot adding a point of color. The overall saya finish is one of the more visually distinctive elements of this piece. This color combination is part of a broader group explored in the Real Katana Sword collection.

Overall length is 40.5 inches, total weight is 3.17 lb. Blade width at the base is 1.26 inches, spine thickness 0.275 inches. Package dimensions are 43.3 x 3.93 x 3.14 inches with a shipping weight of 4.4 lb. Sword stand or display holder is not included.
