Product Details

The blade on this katana is crafted from high manganese steel and hand-finished to a chrome-bright polish. Running 40.5 inches in total length with a blade width of 1.26 inches, the geometry is clean and precise from the base to the fine kissaki tip - a hallmark of careful handwork by experienced swordsmiths drawing on centuries-old forging traditions. At 3.17 lb, the sword carries a confident weight that makes it a natural centerpiece for any Natural Manganese Steel Katana collection.

The tsuka is wrapped in black cord over a PU white samegawa base, creating the signature diamond-pattern ito wrap visible from handle to kashira. The wrapping is firm and even, with gold-toned menuki accents seated beneath the cord at traditional positions along the grip.

The tsuba is a standout element: a gold-toned alloy fitting engraved with a horse figure at its face, framed by a subtle constellation-style ring of dots around the rim. The gold finish contrasts cleanly against the dark collar and blade, giving this katana its most distinctive identifying detail.

The saya is hardwood finished with a premium natural lacquer in a bold orange-to-black gradient. Hand-painted black streak lines sweep across the orange lower section, giving the scabbard a dynamic, flame-like visual energy. A black sageo cord is tied at the kurikata, completing the koshirae-style presentation. This piece is part of a broader lineup of Full Tang Japanese Sword designs built for serious collectors.

Overall dimensions are 40.5 in length x 1.26 in width x 0.275 in height, with a shipping weight of 4.4 lb. The sword stand is not included. This katana is designed as a collectible replica - a handcrafted piece that rewards close inspection of its materials, proportions, and finish work.
