Product Details
The blade is forged from T10 carbon steel and shaped into a full tang katana featuring a prominent hamon line along its length. The surface carries a raging fire style finish - a hand-finished pattern that gives the steel a dynamic, textured appearance distinct from a plain polished blade. At 40.55 inches overall and weighing 2.8 lb, the proportions follow traditional katana geometry with a blade width of 1.259 inches and spine thickness of 0.275 inches.;
The tsuka is built over a hardwood core wrapped first in real white samegawa - genuine ray skin that provides natural texture and grip - then bound tightly in black cord using the traditional diamond-pattern (hishi-gumi) wrap. White menuki accents are visible beneath the wrapping at intervals, adding detail beneath the cord. The result is a handle that reads clean in black and white at a glance while rewarding closer inspection.
The tsuba is one of the most visually striking elements of this katana. Cast in gold-toned metal, it features a fully sculpted dragon motif in relief - coiling forms, scaled texture, and expressive detail fill the guard's face. A rectangular gold habaki sits between the tsuba and blade collar, completing the transition from fittings to steel with a structured, refined finish.
The saya is crafted from hardwood and finished in a premium natural lacquer that reads as deep black scattered with fine gold fleck detailing across its full length. This gives the scabbard a night-sky quality - understated from a distance, richly detailed up close. The black-and-yellow sageo cord is braided in a bold pattern that ties visually back to both the handle wrap and the gold accents throughout.

The overall color palette - matte black, warm gold, chrome steel, and white samegawa - is consistent across every component, giving this katana a cohesive, considered aesthetic. At 2.8 lb and packaged at 42.9 x 3.9 x 3.5 inches, it ships ready for display or addition to a serious sword collection.
