Product Details
The blade on this katana is forged from folded damascus steel, producing the layered grain pattern visible along the flat of the chrome-polished nagasa. A genuine hamon line runs the length of the blade, the result of differential hardening during the hand-forging process. The full-tang construction carries through the entire tsuka, giving the piece solid structural integrity at 40.5 inches overall and 1.26 inches at the blade's widest point.
The tsuka is assembled in traditional koshirae style - white same (rayskin) laid beneath a black cotton ito wrap in a clean diagonal cross pattern. Gold-accent fittings at the kashira and fuchi complete the handle, tying the black-and-gold color scheme together without overstatement. The grip weighs in as part of a total package at 2.88 lbs, balanced for comfortable handling during display positioning.
The tsuba is the most ornate individual component on this piece. Cast in a gold tone, it features a detailed plum blossom and crane composition in relief - a classic pairing in Japanese decorative arts. The warm gold reads strongly against the black cord and dark saya mouth, creating a clear focal point where blade meets handle.
The hardwood saya is where this katana's visual identity is fully realized. Finished in gloss black lacquer, the entire scabbard surface is carved in high relief with coiling dragon figures accented in burnt orange and red - bringing dimension and color to an otherwise monochromatic base. A black sageo cord is knotted at the kurikata in a standard wrap. For more options in this theme, browse our Dragon Theme Scabbard Katana collection.
At 40.5 inches overall with a shipping weight of 4 lbs, this piece arrives ready for wall mounting or display case placement. The black-and-gold koshirae paired with the dragon saya makes it a cohesive collector's piece. If you're drawn to the damascus and dragon combination, the Dragon Damascus Katana collection brings together additional configurations in this style.
