Product Details

The blade on this katana is forged from 1095 high carbon steel and finished with a bold orange flame coat over a white edge - a two-tone treatment that renders the raging fire engraving in vivid relief along the entire length of the nagasa. A real hamon line traces the transition zone, and the full tang construction keeps the blade firmly seated through handle and habaki. At 40.55 inches overall with a blade width of 1.259 inches, the geometry follows traditional katana proportions. For collectors drawn to 1095 High Carbon Katana builds, this piece delivers both the material pedigree and the visual drama in one package.

The tsuka pairs black cord wrap with red PU samegawa beneath in a classic diamond-pattern tsuka-maki. The contrast between the dark outer braid and the red underlayer showing through each opening gives the handle a layered, high-contrast look that complements the orange blade. Fit is snug and the wrap is consistent across the full handle length.

The tsuba is cast from white alloy in an ornate scroll motif with open cutwork throughout the guard face. A gold habaki sits flush at the blade collar, creating a warm metallic accent against the white guard. The scrollwork detailing is cleanly executed with defined edges and symmetrical composition - the kind of tsuba design that reads well both up close and at display distance.

The saya is built from hardwood and finished in a marble-pattern lacquer - white base with gray veining that shifts in texture under light. A black sageo cord is wrapped at the kurigata and tied in a decorative knot, adding a clean finishing element to the sheath. If you're building out a Red Flame Theme Blade Japanese Samurai Swords display, the marble saya provides a cool-toned counterpoint to the warm orange of the blade.

Total length is 40.55 inches and the piece weighs 2.8 pounds. The overall koshirae - orange flame blade, white marble saya, black-red tsuka, white scroll tsuba - forms a cohesive visual identity that works as a focused display piece or a centerpiece in a broader Japanese sword collection.
