Product Details
The blade on this tachi is forged from 1095 carbon steel and ground to a full-tang construction that runs the entire length of the sword. At 40.55 inches overall with a chrome-polished nagasa, the steel carries a clean satin finish without visual distortion, presenting a geometry consistent with classical tachi proportions. Collectors looking to expand their 1095 Carbon Steel Tachi Swords holdings will recognize the quality of the stock material and the precision of the edge work.
The tsuka is built over a full-tang core and wrapped in white PU samegawa as a base layer. Over that, dark blue cord ito is applied in a tight diamond-pattern wrap, leaving evenly spaced white samegawa windows at each crossing point. Silver-finish menuki are seated under the ito at the proper positions, adding dimension to the grip without disrupting the wrap tension. The fuchi and kashira are finished in matching silver-tone alloy, giving the handle assembly a cohesive, formal appearance.
The tsuba is cast alloy in a silver finish and carries a detailed dragon relief across its surface - a motif drawn from traditional Japanese koshirae design. The dragon imagery extends across the face and into the cutout areas, with fine line work visible on close inspection. Its scale and proportion suit the tachi format well, sitting flush against the habaki without play.
The saya is shaped from hardwood and finished in multiple coats of natural lacquer in a deep orange tone. The surface is smooth and even, with black alloy kojiri and koiguchi fittings at each end. A black kurigata accepts the multi-color sageo, which is braided in brown, white, and orange - echoing the orange saya and contrasting cleanly against the dark blue tsuka. This is a fully realized Full Tang Tachi Sword with coordinated koshirae throughout.
Overall length is 40.55 inches. Blade width measures 1.259 inches and spine thickness is 0.275 inches. Total weight is 2.8 pounds. The sword ships in packaging measuring 42.9 x 3.9 x 3.5 inches at a shipping weight of 3.3 pounds. Sword stand is not included.
