T10 Carbon Steel Katana with Real Hamon - Purple Ito, Bronze Rabbit Tsuba, Black Lacquer Saya
- Blade forged from T10 carbon steel with a visible real hamon line - the distinct temper pattern along the edge reflects authentic heat-treatment craft and adds striking visual depth to the polished chrome-finish nagasa.
- Full-tang construction with a black ray-skin (samegawa) wrapped handle, finished in deep purple ito - the diamond-pattern braid sits firmly over the grip with silver menuki accents peeking through the wrap.
- Bronze tsuba features a hand-finished rabbit motif in relief - a rare thematic detail that sets this piece apart from standard round or geometric guard designs, showing the level of attention given to the fittings.
- Black lacquer hardwood saya (scabbard) is fitted with real horn koiguchi and kojiri, secured by a braided black-and-purple sageo cord that complements the handle wrap with a matched two-tone color pairing.
- Overall length 40.5 inches, blade width 1.26 inches, weight 2.88 lbs - proportions consistent with a traditional katana intended for display or collector handling, each piece individually handcrafted with slight natural variation.

Product Details
The blade of this katana is hand-forged from T10 carbon steel and finished with a real hamon - the flowing temper line visible along the edge is a direct result of the heat-treatment process, not an etched imitation. At 40.5 inches overall with a 1.26-inch width, the chrome-polished nagasa carries the characteristic curvature of a traditional katana geometry. If you appreciate the full range of Purple T10 Carbon Steel Katana options, this piece sits at the detailed end of that spectrum.
The tsuka is built over a full-tang core, wrapped first in genuine black ray-skin (samegawa) and then bound in deep purple ito using a traditional diamond-braid pattern. Silver menuki ornaments are set into the wrap at intervals, catching light through the crossings of the braid. The overall grip feel is firm and well-proportioned to the blade's weight.
The bronze tsuba is the defining accent of this build. Cast with a sculptural rabbit motif in relief - a figure rendered with enough detail to read clearly at arm's length - this guard moves well beyond decorative filler. The warm copper-brown tone of the bronze provides a deliberate contrast against the purple handle and black saya, anchoring the color palette with a traditional metallic note.
The saya is lacquered hardwood finished in matte black, fitted at the mouth and tip with real horn koiguchi and kojiri for durability at the contact points. A braided sageo cord in black-and-purple is looped at the kurikata, echoing the handle wrap and tying the two-tone color scheme across the full length of the piece. For collectors drawn to the Antique Katana aesthetic, the aged bronze fittings and natural lacquer finish give this katana a grounded, period-appropriate character.
Total length is 40.5 inches, blade width 1.26 inches, and overall weight comes in at 2.88 lbs. Each katana is individually handcrafted, so minor variation in hamon pattern and wrap tension is inherent to the process. Sword stand not included.
