Product Details
The blade on this wakizashi is forged from manganese steel, hardened to 62 HRC and ground to a 28.74-inch nagasa. A natural hamon runs the full length of the edge, its undulating boundary visible against the chrome-finish steel - the direct result of differential heat treatment during the finishing process. The blade measures 1.26 inches at its widest and 0.275 inches at the spine, giving it a lean, responsive profile suited to the shorter wakizashi form.
The tsuka is built around a full tang construction, which runs uninterrupted from tip to pommel for structural integrity across the entire 10.62-inch handle. Authentic black rayskin (samegawa) is fitted over the wood core, then wrapped tightly in black cotton ito using the traditional diamond-pattern braid. The grip is firm and textured, with the samegawa's natural nodule surface adding tactile resistance beneath the wrap.
The alloy tsuba is cast in a gold-black colorway and sculpted with a dragon motif - the creature rendered in high relief against a dark ground, with swirling details that carry across both faces of the guard. Gold-tone habaki and seppa fittings frame the tsuba on either side, creating a clean transition between handle and blade. For collectors interested in dragon-themed fittings across different formats, our T10 Wakizashi collection offers comparable koshirae styles.
The saya is carved from hardwood and finished in a matte white surface that closely mirrors natural marble - off-white ground with branching red-brown veining running the full 29.92-inch length. A black sageo cord is knotted at the kurikata, providing a clean visual anchor against the light saya. The contrast between the white marble saya and the dark handle wrapping is one of this sword's most immediate visual distinctions. Those drawn to this saya style may also find relevant options in our Shirasaya Wakizashi collection.
Overall length is 40.55 inches, total weight 4.4 pounds, with a shipping weight of 3.3 pounds. The complete koshirae assembly - dragon tsuba, matched gold fittings, marble saya, and black sageo - presents as a unified set, making this wakizashi a strong candidate for display or as a centerpiece in a Japanese sword collection.
