Product Details

The blade on this katana is forged from Damascus steel, delivering the layered, flowing surface patterns the material is prized for. A visible hamon line runs the length of the chrome-tone edge, and full-tang construction keeps blade and handle locked into a single structural unit across the 41-inch overall length. At 3 lb, the sword carries a noticeable heft that reads as solid and deliberate rather than heavy. Browse the full White Damascus Katana collection to see additional blade finishes in this style.

The tsuka is wrapped in dark blue ito cord over a PU black samegawa base, a combination that gives the grip both visual contrast and a textured surface underhand. Brass-tone menuki sit beneath the wrap at their traditional positions, and the overall handle construction follows standard koshirae proportions.

The tsuba is one of the most striking details on this piece. Cast in silver-tone alloy, it features a full dragon relief pattern - scrolling scales and cloud forms fill the guard from rim to center on both faces. The openwork carving gives it a layered, three-dimensional quality that reads clearly even at a distance.

The saya is lacquered hardwood finished in white with a speckled dark ink pattern distributed across the surface. A small gold floral mon medallion is inlaid near the mid-point of the scabbard. The dark blue sageo cord is knotted at the saya mouth in a traditional style, directly echoing the tsuka ito color and pulling the full piece into a consistent palette.
