Product Details
The blade on this katana is forged from 1095 carbon steel - a high-carbon alloy known for its density and edge retention - and runs full tang through the handle for solid structural integrity. A real hamon line is visible along the edge, formed during the hardening process and polished to a bright, mirror-finished chrome surface. The blade measures 1.259 in at its widest point with an overall length of 40.55 in, giving it the proportions of a traditional katana in the 1095 Carbon Steel Katana tradition.
The tsuka is wrapped in black cord over PU red samegawa - the diamond-shaped openings in the braid expose the red underlayer, creating a sharp black-and-red visual rhythm down the full length of the handle. The wrap is firm and even, with gold-toned menuki seated beneath the cord at the traditional positions. A black collar at the koiguchi end ties the tsuka visually to the saya below.
The tsuba is cast from alloy in a gold-and-silver two-tone finish, featuring an ornate scroll design with layered cloud and foliage relief patterns on both faces. The outer rim carries fine rope-edge detailing, while the blade collar beneath it steps down cleanly to the habaki. The combination of gold scrollwork against the silver ground gives the fitting a period koshirae character without being understated.
The saya is shaped from hardwood and finished in a deep red lacquer that reads as vivid and glossy under direct light. A black sageo cord is tied at the kurigata in a standard loop-and-tail knot, and a black braided wrap runs along the koiguchi opening for reinforcement. The red-and-black pairing of saya and sageo directly mirrors the tsuka wrap, pulling the full Handmade Katana Sword set into a unified color scheme.
Total weight is 2.8 lb across a 40.55 in overall length. The package dimensions are 42.9 x 3.9 x 3.5 in with a shipping weight of 3.3 lb. Sword stand is not included. This piece is intended as a collectible and display replica.
