Damascus Steel Wakizashi with Oni Tsuba - Real Hamon, Dark Blue Ito, Koshirae Style
- Blade forged from Damascus steel with a visible real hamon along the edge - the flowing temper line reflects traditional Japanese heat-treatment craft and adds striking visual depth to the polished chrome finish.

- Brown-gold oni tsuba hand-carved in relief depicts a horned demon face - the sculpted copper alloy piece is fitted with a brass habaki collar, anchoring the koshirae assembly with bold thematic presence.
- Saya finished in black hardwood lacquer with a clean gloss surface - the dark sheath contrasts sharply against the polished blade and navy sageo, completing the two-tone koshirae color story.
- Overall length 30.3 in, blade width 1.26 in, weight 2.2 lb - proportioned as a true wakizashi, suitable for wall display, cosplay, or collection alongside full-length katana.

Product Details
The blade on this wakizashi is forged from Damascus steel, revealing a layered grain pattern across the polished chrome surface. A genuine hamon runs the length of the edge - the temper line is a direct result of the differential heat-treatment process and stands as one of the most visually distinctive features of traditional Japanese sword craft. At 30.3 inches overall with a 1.26-inch blade width, the proportions fall squarely within the wakizashi range, giving it the compact authority this format is known for. If you're exploring the full range of pattern-welded short swords, the Damascus Wakizashi collection covers a broad spectrum of Damascus builds in this length class.
The handle is assembled in full koshirae style. Dark blue ito (cotton braid) is wrapped in a tight diamond pattern over genuine white samegawa - the dotted ray skin visible between each wrap adds texture contrast and a period-accurate detail that separates this build from synthetic alternatives. Gold-tone menuki are seated beneath the ito on each face of the tsuka, adding a secondary decorative element without disrupting the grip geometry.
The tsuba is one of the most immediately striking components. Cast in brown-gold copper alloy, it features a hand-finished oni face in high relief - the horned demon mask is rendered with sharp detail across the brow, eyes, and jaw. A brass habaki collar locks the tsuba firmly in place against the blade, and the dark blue sageo cord loops from the saya opening, tying the color palette together across handle and sheath.
The saya is shaped from hardwood and finished with a black lacquer coat. The gloss surface reflects the same chrome tones visible along the blade flat, and the clean black profile contrasts the navy and gold of the handle fittings into a deliberate two-tone composition. For collectors interested in how this build compares to other short-sword styles, the Black Pattern Steel Wakizashi collection offers related options with different steel and finish combinations.
Total length is 30.3 in, blade width 1.26 in, spine thickness 0.275 in, and overall weight is 2.2 lb. Packaged at 33.4 x 3.9 x 3.14 in with a shipping weight of 3.3 lb. Note: the display stand shown in product images is not included.
