Product Details
The blade of this katana is forged from primary tamahagane steel - iron sand and charcoal smelted in a traditional tatara furnace, then sorted into high and low carbon pieces. The high carbon steel forms the cutting edge and core while the tougher low carbon steel encases it, following the classic nihonto construction method. Clay tempering produces the visible hamon line that runs along the 28.5-inch nagasa, reaching a hardness of 60 HRC. For collectors seeking authentic Japanese steelmaking heritage, our Tamahagane Steel Katana Sword collection offers more options in this category.
The 10.25-inch tsuka is built on a hardwood core wrapped in genuine red samegawa - real rayskin that provides both texture and grip. Black cotton cord is tightly wound over the rayskin in a traditional diamond pattern, and the red peeks through each opening to create a striking visual rhythm. The full tang runs through the entire handle length, secured for structural integrity.
At the junction of blade and handle sits a copper alloy oval tsuba with raised relief detailing visible on both faces. The warm copper tone transitions naturally between the chrome-finish blade above and the black cord wrap below, while the tsuba's sculpted surface catches light at different angles.
The saya is crafted from hardwood and finished with real red rayskin across its full 28.5-inch length, echoing the samegawa on the handle. A real horn koiguchi reinforces the scabbard mouth, and black sageo cord wraps the kurikata for traditional carry. The textured red surface gives the saya a distinctive pebbled look that sets it apart from lacquered alternatives.
At 40.5 inches overall and 4.5 lbs, this is a full-size collectible katana built with traditional materials and forging methods. The combination of tamahagane steel, clay tempering, and rayskin fittings places it among serious display pieces for those who value Hamon Japanese Sword craftsmanship and authentic construction techniques.
