Product Details

This red katana features a T10 steel blade that has been clay-tempered to produce a visible hamon line along the edge. The entire blade surface carries detailed white feather engravings against a dark finish, creating a striking visual pattern that runs from the habaki to the kissaki. At HRC 60 hardness, the T10 steel holds a refined edge while the differential hardening provides a resilient spine.

The tsuka measures 10.62 inches and is wrapped in red cord over black samegawa, providing a secure and textured grip. A sculptural red feather-shaped kashira caps the pommel end, echoing the feather motif engraved on the blade itself. This is a Full Tang Katana - the tang extends through the full length of the handle for structural integrity.

The tsuba is a standout piece - a three-dimensional dragon head cast in alloy with dark red-and-black tones. Detailed scales, horns, and open jaws wrap around the blade opening, giving the guard a sculptural quality that sets this katana apart from standard designs.

The hardwood saya stretches 29.52 inches and features a red-and-black marble crackle finish that gives the scabbard an organic, almost volcanic appearance. The koiguchi fits snugly against the habaki, and the overall effect pairs dramatically with the red handle wrapping and dark blade. This piece belongs among the finest in any Red Katana Sword collection.

Overall length comes in at 45.6 inches with a 28.34-inch nagasa and a total weight of 3.2 lbs. The blade width is 1.26 inches. Every element - from the feather engravings to the dragon guard to the marble saya - follows a cohesive red-and-black design language, making this katana a statement display piece for collectors who value bold, thematic craftsmanship.

  • T10 steel blade with clay-tempered hamon line and detailed white feather engravings across the full length, hardness rated at HRC 60 for lasting edge retention.
  • Sculptural dragon tsuba cast in alloy with intricate scale and claw details in a dark red-and-black finish, creating a dramatic guard piece.
  • Red cord-wrapped tsuka over black samegawa, topped with a red feather-shaped kashira pommel that mirrors the blade's engraved motif.
  • Hardwood saya finished in a striking red-and-black marble crackle pattern, 29.52 inches long, delivering bold visual contrast against the dark blade.
  • Full tang construction with overall length of 45.6 inches, 28.34-inch nagasa, and total weight of 3.2 lbs - built for substantial presence on display.

Frequently Asked Questions

What steel and heat treatment does this red katana use?
This katana uses T10 steel that has been clay-tempered to produce a visible hamon line along the cutting edge. The differential hardening process yields HRC 60 hardness at the edge while keeping the spine more flexible for structural resilience.
What are the feather engravings on the blade made of?
The white feather engravings are etched directly into the T10 steel blade surface, running from near the habaki all the way to the kissaki. They stand out in white against the dark blade finish, creating a detailed pattern that complements the feather-shaped kashira on the pommel.
How is the dragon tsuba designed and what is the saya finish?
The tsuba is a sculptural dragon head cast in alloy with intricate scale, horn, and jaw details in dark red-and-black tones. The 29.52-inch hardwood saya features a red-and-black marble crackle finish that pairs with the red cord handle for a cohesive thematic look.
