- Blade forged from 1065 carbon steel using a folded melaleuca layering process, producing a visible grain pattern across the surface and a hand-finished edge along the full length.
- Full tang construction runs the entire length of the natural hardwood handle, providing solid structural integrity and consistent weight distribution from tip to grip.
- Shirasaya-style design pairs an unadorned natural hardwood tsuka with a matching straight hardwood saya, finished in a warm pale tone that highlights the wood grain texture.
- A compact gold-tone collar at the habaki junction visually separates blade from handle, adding a subtle metallic accent against the natural wood without disrupting the minimalist aesthetic.
- Overall length 40.5 inches, blade width 1.26 inches, total weight 2.54 lb - proportioned for shelf display or cosplay use with a balanced, manageable feel in hand.

Product Details
The blade on this shirasaya is forged from 1065 carbon steel through a folded melaleuca process, layering the steel repeatedly to produce the flowing grain pattern visible along the flat. The resulting surface texture - fine, rippling lines running from spine to edge - is a direct result of that folding work, not an etched finish. The edge runs the full length of the blade in a straight single-bevel profile, terminating in a clean tantō-style point. A visible hamon line traces the edge, showing where the differential hardening process defined the transition between hard edge steel and the softer body.
The tsuka is shaped from natural hardwood in the shirasaya tradition - no ito wrapping, no ray skin, just smooth pale wood fitted directly over a full tang. The full tang extends through the entire handle length, secured without decorative menuki or exposed fasteners, keeping the profile clean and the grip solid.
A plain gold-tone collar sits at the junction where blade meets handle. Small in footprint but precise in placement, it provides a clean visual stop between the chrome-toned blade and the warm natural wood - the only metallic detail on an otherwise minimal build.
The saya is crafted from matching natural hardwood, shaped to the straight profile of the blade and finished to the same pale tone as the tsuka. The fit at the koiguchi is close enough that the sword seats firmly without play. For fans of Sword of Kusanagi or the unadorned straight-blade aesthetic seen across anime, the all-wood construction and stripped-back silhouette are the defining appeal here.
Total length is 40.5 inches with a 1.26-inch blade width and an overall weight of 2.54 lb. Packaged in a 42 x 4 x 4 inch box at a shipping weight of 4 lb. Sword stand is not included. This piece suits display shelves, cosplay builds, or collection alongside other Kitetsu Sword replicas where natural-finish shirasaya styling is the focus.
