Product Details
The blade on this katana is forged from T10 carbon steel and clay tempered, a process that produces the visible hamon - the wavy temper line running along the edge. Unlike uniform heat treatment, clay tempering creates a harder edge and softer spine, and the resulting hamon pattern is unique to each individual sword. The blade measures 28.3 inches (72 cm) in length and carries a mirror-polished chrome finish with a pronounced curve typical of traditional tachi geometry. Explore the full range in our T10 Samurai Sword collection for comparison across configurations.
The tsuka is 10.2 inches (26 cm) long, wrapped in brown cord (tsuka-ito) over black ray-skin samegawa. The ito is tied in a standard hineri-maki pattern with evenly spaced diamond windows exposing the samegawa beneath. The wrap is firm and consistent from kashira to tsuba, with no loose sections. A bronze kashira caps the pommel end, matching the tone of the guard fittings.
The tsuba is cast bronze in a dragon-cloud motif - a circular guard with raised sculptural detail showing a coiled dragon form against textured cloud relief. The bronze surface has an aged, darkened patina with gold highlights on the raised edges, giving the guard an antique character. A brass habaki sits flush between the tsuba and the blade's base, securing the fit.
The saya is constructed from natural hardwood and finished in glossy black lacquer. The surface is smooth and even, with a tight koiguchi that holds the blade securely. A brown sageo cord is knotted at the kurigata, using the same cord material as the tsuka-ito wrap - the matching brown ties the handle and scabbard together visually into a cohesive set.
Overall length is 40.5 inches (103 cm) and the sword weighs 3.2 lbs. This piece follows full koshirae mounting style with matched fittings throughout. It suits display in a wall mount or sword stand (not included) and is a strong addition to any Decorative Samurai Sword collection focused on traditional craftsmanship and hand-finished detailing.
