Product Details

This katana features a 28.74-inch blade forged from 1095 carbon steel, hand-polished to a mirror-like chrome finish. Rated at 62 HRC hardness, the full tang construction runs through the entire handle for structural integrity. The high polish surface catches light along the sweeping curvature, producing a clean visual line from habaki to kissaki.

The 10.62-inch tsuka is built over real rayskin wrapped in PU red samegawa, then bound tightly with black cotton cord in a traditional diamond pattern. Red samegawa peeks through the crosshatch openings, creating a bold two-tone effect that stands out against the dark wrapping. The cord tension keeps the grip secure and comfortable in hand.

At the junction of blade and handle sits a round alloy tsuba finished in black with a raised bamboo branch relief. One side features a gold-tone fan-shaped accent that adds depth and contrast to the dark guard. This bamboo motif connects visually to the saya design, giving the sword a unified artistic theme throughout its fittings.

The 29.92-inch hardwood saya is coated in premium natural lacquer with a rich red finish. Silver bamboo branch and leaf engravings run along the body of the scabbard, standing out crisply against the red surface. A black braided sageo cord is tied at the kurikata, completing the traditional silhouette. This Red Katana pairs well with other red-themed display pieces.

At 40.55 inches overall and 2.8 lbs, this katana balances visual impact with manageable weight. Every fitting - from the gold-accented tsuba to the engraved red saya - follows a cohesive bamboo-inspired design language. Built with 1095 High Carbon Steel, the blade delivers both collector-grade craftsmanship and an eye-catching display profile suited for shelves, stands, or wall mounts.
