Product Details

The blade is forged from high manganese steel and finished in a deep matte black with a precision-ground silver edge running the full cutting length. A serrated spine adds dramatic visual texture, evoking the raging-fire motif referenced throughout this design. At 46.8 inches overall and 4 lbs, the full-tang construction runs the entire length of the handle - delivering solid balance and structural integrity prized by collectors and display enthusiasts alike.

The tsuka is built over a hardwood core wrapped in white samegawa, then bound tightly in black PU leather with a uniform ridge-wrap pattern visible along the full grip length. The contrasting white underlayer occasionally shows through the wrap, creating a subtle two-tone detail consistent with traditional koshirae assembly.

At the pommel, a sculptural wolf head cast in black alloy dominates the kashira position. The piece features open jaws exposing white-finished fangs and deeply textured fur rendering - one of the most distinctive design elements on this sword. The opposite end transitions into a black alloy tsuba shaped with a lion relief theme, providing the visual anchor between blade and handle.

The saya is hardwood core wrapped in black PU leather with a fine diamond crosshatch texture pressed into the surface. A carved dragon scene decorates the kojiri end cap, and two silver-tone D-ring suspension fittings with a leather tab allow the scabbard to be carried or displayed on a belt mount. The matching black sageo completes the Handwood Scabbard Ninjato aesthetic.

At 46.8 inches long, 1.5 inches wide, and 0.2 inches thick, this katana ships at 6.6 lbs and fits collectors drawn to all-black koshirae with aggressive sculptural hardware. If you appreciate bold dark-theme builds, the Blue And Black Samurai Sword collection offers related contrast-color configurations worth exploring.

  • Full-tang manganese steel blade finished in matte black with a serrated spine and contrasting polished silver edge - a bold raging-fire aesthetic across 46.8 inches overall length.
  • Sculptural wolf-head pommel cast in black alloy captures fine fur and fang detail, making the tsuka end a standalone artistic focal point.
  • Black PU leather-wrapped handle over a white samegawa base provides a firm, textured grip while maintaining the all-black visual theme from pommel to collar.
  • Black lion-themed alloy tsuba bridges handle and blade with ornate relief carving, adding a layer of mythic symbolism to the full koshirae ensemble.
  • Hardwood saya wrapped in black PU leather features a diamond-pattern texture, integrated silver-tone D-ring carry fittings, and an engraved dragon motif at the kojiri end.
  • Sword stand or holder is not included - please source a compatible display mount separately for wall or shelf presentation.
