Product Details
The blade on this katana is forged from T10 carbon steel and hand-finished to reveal a distinct hamon line running along the edge - that wavy boundary between the hardened edge and softer spine is one of the most sought-after visual hallmarks in Japanese sword craft. Adding to the blade's character is a dragon engraving carved into the flat, giving the chrome-polished steel an extra layer of artistry that sets this piece apart in any collection.
The full tang construction extends through the entire length of the black-wrapped tsuka, anchoring every component firmly together. White samegawa underneath the black cord wrap adds texture and grip surface, while the diamond-pattern lacing follows traditional tsuka-maki technique. At 2.8 lbs and 40.55 inches overall, the sword carries a presence that reads authentically in hand or on display.
The lion-themed tsuba is one of this katana's most distinctive features - cast in gold-brown metal with sculptural relief detailing, it depicts a lion motif surrounded by flowing decorative elements. The warm brass-toned finish contrasts cleanly against the dark tsuka above and the blade below, making the guard a genuine focal point of the koshirae fittings.
The saya is built from a hardwood core finished in purple-black lacquer, producing a surface that shifts between deep violet and near-black depending on the light. Brown-purple sageo cord wraps the scabbard in a layered binding pattern, with the braided ties visible in the close-up imagery. The color combination of the saya and sageo ties together the entire piece with a rich, cohesive palette. For collectors interested in exploring more options in this color range, the Purple T10 Carbon Steel Katana collection offers additional variations worth browsing.
At 40.55 inches in length with a blade width of 1.259 inches, this replica fits standard single-sword wall mounts or display stands. Shipping weight is 3.3 lbs. Whether you are drawn to the dragon-engraved blade, the lion tsuba, or the purple-black saya, this katana delivers a layered visual experience that rewards close inspection.
