Product Details
The blade is forged from manganese steel and given a deep blue surface treatment that sets it apart from conventional polished finishes. A hand-finished hamon line traces the length of the edge, while a wave engraving runs along the flat - two details that reward close inspection. At 41 inches overall and 4 pounds, the sword carries real presence in hand. For collectors looking for more options in this steel type, browse our Natural Manganese Steel Katana collection.
The tsuka is built on a full-tang core, meaning the steel extends the complete length of the handle for structural integrity. White PU samegawa forms the base layer, and red-and-white cotton ito is wrapped in a traditional diamond pattern over it. The result is a grip that looks striking and stays secure.
The tsuba is one of the standout elements of this koshirae. Cast in silver-and-gold alloy, it features an all-over chrysanthemum floral relief with a cherry blossom emblem at the center - a design that references classical Japanese motifs without feeling derivative. The gold rim ties visually to the fuchi and kashira fittings at either end of the handle.
The saya is shaped from hardwood and finished in a warm orange lacquer - a deliberately bold choice that contrasts sharply with the blue blade when the sword is drawn. Black sageo cord is knotted at the kurikata in a traditional wrap, adding a dark anchor to the warm saya tone. This color pairing is the defining visual statement of the piece.
This katana ships in a 43 x 4 x 4 inch package at 5 pounds shipping weight. Each sword is individually handmade, so minor variations in finish and fit are a natural part of the craft. Sword stand not included. If you are exploring similar handcrafted pieces, the Real Japanese Sword collection offers a range of comparable options.
