Product Details
The blade on this katana is forged from high manganese steel and treated to carry a deep red finish from hilt to tip, with a hand-finished hamon line that traces a raging-fire pattern along the edge. The contrast between the polished white edge bevel and the red upper surface gives the nagasa an eye-catching two-tone character that photographs and displays exceptionally well. If you appreciate the visual drama of a Red Blade Manganese Steel Katana, this piece delivers that aesthetic with clean, precise execution.
The tsuka is built on a full-tang core that runs the complete length of the handle. Black-and-white ito cord is wrapped in traditional diamond pattern over a PU white samegawa base, and alloy fittings at the kashira and habaki secure everything firmly in place. The grip-to-blade balance is well-considered for a sword at 3.17 lb total weight.
The tsuba is cast in a black-and-gold finish with an intricate chrysanthemum motif - floral scrollwork and open lattice cutouts that catch light from multiple angles. The gold rim provides a clean transition between the dark tsuba face and the red blade, tying together the overall color scheme of the piece.
The saya is crafted from hardwood and finished in premium red natural lacquer with a gold-fleck marble surface treatment that adds depth and texture to the scabbard's appearance. A black sageo cord is knotted at the kurikata in a multi-wrap style, adding a practical carrying loop and an extra layer of visual contrast against the glossy red finish.
At 40.5 in overall length, 1.26 in blade width, and a shipping weight of 4.4 lb, this katana arrives individually handmade - meaning minor finish variations exist from piece to piece. Each sword is a standalone work in the Red Katana tradition. Sword stand not included.
