Product Details
The blade is forged from 1090 carbon steel and finished with a deep blue surface treatment that runs the full length of the nagasa. A wave-pattern hamon traces the edge, visible in both close inspection and display lighting, giving the blade a layered visual character that sets it apart from standard polished finishes. At 40.55 inches overall with a blade width of 1.259 inches, the proportions follow traditional katana geometry while the blue coloration introduces a distinctly modern aesthetic.
The tsuka is constructed over a full-tang core and wrapped in PU black samegawa, which provides the textured underlayer traditional to Japanese sword grips. Over this, blue cord tsuka-ito is applied in the classic diamond-pattern wrap, with small brass menuki hardware visible between the braid intervals. The black-and-blue pairing across the handle creates a sharp contrast that carries through the entire koshirae.
The tsuba is cast from alloy in a circular form and finished in black, with a highly detailed dragon relief covering both faces. A gold-tone seppa accent sits between the tsuba and the habaki, adding a warm metallic note against the black guard. In Japanese tradition, the dragon motif carries associations of strength and guardianship - making it a fitting centerpiece for a sword built around bold visual intent.

The saya is shaped from hardwood and finished in a rich blue lacquer. Diagonal black stripe inlays run along the body of the scabbard, breaking the solid color and giving it a structured, dynamic surface. A blue-and-white striped sageo cord is knotted at the kurigata in a traditional style, completing the saya's visual detail. The lacquer finish protects the wood while maintaining the deep gloss that complements the blade's own blue treatment.
At 2.8 lb total weight and packaged at 42.9 x 3.9 x 3.5 inches, this katana is proportioned for koshirae display and collection use. Every component - blade, tsuka, tsuba, and saya - is color-coordinated around the blue-and-black palette, resulting in a cohesive piece for collectors drawn to dragon-themed Carved Dragon Katana aesthetics. Sword stand is not included.
