Manganese Steel Katana with Black Lacquer Saya - Gold Tsuba, Black Cord Handle

The blade on this katana is forged from high manganese steel, hand-finished to a bright chrome polish that highlights its clean single-bevel geometry. The full tang construction runs the entire length of the handle, giving the piece a solid, well-balanced feel whether mounted on a display stand or held in hand. No hamon line is present on this model - the blade's appeal comes from its mirror-like surface and crisp geometry rather than differential heat treatment.

The tsuka is wrapped in black cord using a traditional diagonal cross pattern, providing a firm, textured grip. The wrap sits flush and tight along the full handle length, anchored at both the kashira and the base near the tsuba. The black tone of the handle creates a clean visual line that runs directly into the saya.

A gold-toned alloy tsuba sits at the junction of blade and handle, featuring a rectangular form with embossed relief detailing across its face. The warm gold finish pops sharply against the surrounding black components, serving as the single accent color in an otherwise monochrome design. This piece is part of our Gold Flower Tsuba Katana lineup.

The saya is constructed from hardwood with a black lacquer finish, wrapped in a fine diamond-pattern texture that adds grip and visual depth. The kojiri endcap is cast with a floral motif in dark alloy, providing a refined finishing detail at the tip. A black sageo cord is fitted at the kurigata for traditional carry presentation. Collectors interested in coordinated black-finish pieces can explore our Black Steel Samurai Sword collection for complementary options.
