Product Details

The blade is ground from 1090 carbon steel and hand-finished to a chrome-bright polish, with a continuous hamon line tracing the edge from base to tip. Full tang construction runs the entire length of the handle core, keeping the assembly solid and well-balanced at 2.8 lb across a 40.55 in overall length.

The tsuka is built over a wood core wrapped in white PU samegawa, then bound in beige ito cord using a traditional diamond-lace pattern. The open diamond windows expose the samegawa beneath, creating a sharp two-tone rhythm along the grip. A silver-tone kashira caps the pommel end and coordinates with the metalwork throughout.

The silver alloy tsuba is the focal point of the koshirae. Cast in a round form with a stippled surface texture, it carries a raised relief of a bird resting among layered blossoms - referencing classic Japanese nature motifs in a compact, tactile piece. The detail work on the tsuba makes it a collectible object in its own right. For more nature-themed and character-inspired guard designs, browse our Zoro Sword Replicas collection.

The saya is shaped from hardwood and finished in a deep black lacquer. Cream-colored binding strips wrap the body at regular intervals, echoing the beige ito on the tsuka and tying the color story together. A braided black-and-white sageo cord hangs from the kurigata, adding movement and a final layer of craft detail to the scabbard.

At 40.55 in overall with a 1.259 in blade width, this katana is sized for standard wall mounting hardware or a two-tier display stand. The complete koshirae - chrome blade, white handle, floral tsuba, and banded black saya - presents a high-contrast monochrome palette with silver accents that works equally well as a standalone display piece or as a reference piece for students of Japanese sword fittings.
