1095 Carbon Steel Katana with Blue Blade, Teal Lacquer Saya & Dragon Tsuba - Full Tang

The blade on this katana is ground from 1095 carbon steel and given a distinctive blue surface treatment that shifts from deep cobalt near the spine to a brighter tone at the edge bevel. A real hamon line is present along the ha, the result of a differential heat-treatment process that creates a visible temper line between the harder edge and softer body of the steel. The precision-finished edge and handcrafted construction are consistent throughout the 40.55-inch overall length. Collectors looking to expand into Blue Blade 1095 Carbon Steel Katana pieces will recognize the quality of steel and finish at this specification.;

The tsuka is built over a full tang core and wrapped in PU white samegawa, which provides a firm, slightly textured foundation beneath the ito. Over that sits a dark blue cotton cord in a traditional diamond-pattern tsuka-maki, leaving the white samegawa diamonds visible between each crossing. The wrap is snug and uniform from habaki to kashira, giving the handle a clean, symmetrical profile at 1.259 inches in width.

The tsuba is cast alloy in a dragon theme, finished in a black-and-gold two-tone palette. The outer ring carries finely detailed dragon relief work in matte black, while the interior oval reveals a warm gold surface that frames the nakago-ana. Matching fuchi and kashira fittings in silver-tone metal tie the handle assembly together and provide clean transitions between each component.

The saya is shaped from hardwood and finished with a premium natural lacquer that produces an iridescent teal-to-silver surface. The shifting color across the length of the saya changes with the angle of light, creating depth that complements the blue tone of the blade. A dark blue sageo cord is attached at the kurikata, matching the tsuka ito color and completing the coordinated blue-and-teal color scheme across the full koshirae.

Overall dimensions are 40.55 in length, 1.259 in blade width, and 0.275 in blade thickness, with a total weight of 2.8 lb. Packaged at 42.9 x 3.9 x 3.5 in and shipping at 3.3 lb. The coordinated blue nagasa, teal saya, and dragon tsuba make this a focused addition to any Blue Katana Weekly Deals lineup or standalone display collection.
