Product Details

The blade on this shirasaya is ground from T10 carbon steel and features a naturally occurring hamon line along its length - a visual trace of the differential heat treatment applied during forging. The chrome-finished surface runs clean and flat from the pronounced kissaki tip to the habaki collar, with no decorative grinding or artificial patterning. At 39.37 inches overall and 2.54 lbs, the geometry sits in the range associated with traditional shirasaya proportions.

The tsuka is shaped from natural hardwood with no ito wrapping - consistent with shirasaya convention, the handle presents raw wood grain across its entire surface. The fit between handle and blade is tight at the habaki, and the rounded oval cross-section sits comfortably without a separate grip layer. Full tang construction means the steel runs uninterrupted through the handle core.

Separating tsuka from saya is a compact gold-tone tsuba with an open geometric lattice pattern. The cell structure across its face draws from traditional Japanese metalwork motifs, and the gold finish reads warmly against the pale natural hardwood on either side. It is the single point of metal color in an otherwise monochromatic wood-and-steel composition.

The saya is crafted from the same natural hardwood as the handle, with a consistent light warm tone and visible grain running lengthwise. The interior fit holds the blade securely, and the exterior shows no lacquer coating - the wood surface is left in its natural state, which gives the piece its understated, scholarly character. If you are exploring Naruto Sword styles or related anime replica formats, the shirasaya design sits at the quieter, more traditional end of that spectrum.

This piece is suited for display and collection use. Overall length is 39.37 inches, blade width 1.26 inches, and shipping weight 4 lbs. The sword stand is not included. For collectors drawn to clean lines and traditional Japanese sword formats, this natural wood shirasaya offers an honest representation of the form - no wrapping, no lacquer, no extra hardware, just steel, hardwood, and a single gold accent at the guard.

  • Blade is forged from T10 carbon steel with a visible hamon line and a hand-finished edge, delivering the refined character expected from a serious shirasaya replica.
  • Full tang construction runs the entire length of the natural hardwood tsuka, providing solid balance across the sword's 39.37-inch overall length at 2.54 lbs.
  • Natural hardwood saya and tsuka are finished in an uncoated, light-tone wood - the warm grain visible in every panel gives this shirasaya its clean, minimalist identity.
  • Gold-tone geometric tsuba features an open lattice pattern inspired by traditional Japanese metalwork, bridging the unadorned wood handle and polished blade with a precise accent.
  • No tsuka-ito wrapping or decorative hardware - the shirasaya format keeps the design intentionally stripped back, letting the wood grain and blade geometry do the visual work.

Love the sword, sheath came in broken, contacted company, and replacement shopped next day. Little heavier then I imagined, but love it mon the same.
