Product Details
The blade is forged from T10 carbon steel and finished to a high-polish chrome surface that makes the real hamon temper line clearly visible from tip to base. A hand-etched dragon engraving runs along the flat of the blade, adding a sculptural element that collectors will notice immediately. Full tang construction runs the length of the handle, giving the piece solid physical integrity across its 41-inch overall span.
The tsuka is wrapped in olive-green ito using the traditional diamond-pattern overlap, revealing white samegawa (ray skin) beneath each gap. The grip is accounted for with a pair of gold-tone menuki seated beneath the binding - small cast ornaments that complement the overall warm metal palette of the fittings. For those drawn to Nihonto Katana craftsmanship, this handle construction reflects classic koshirae-style assembly with attention to layered detail.
The tsuba is a circular gold-tone guard with a deeply engraved geometric maze pattern covering its full face - a karakusa-inspired design worked into a copper base with gold gilding. The fuchi and kashira echo the same warm gold finish, tying the fittings together as a cohesive set. This piece belongs alongside other Gold-plated Tsuba Japanese Samurai Swords where the guard is treated as a focal point rather than an afterthought.
The saya is built from hardwood and finished in a glossy black lacquer with a heavily textured, stone-like surface - a finish that creates strong visual contrast against the bright blade when drawn. The koiguchi and kojiri are fitted with real horn, adding durability at the two highest-wear contact points. A teal and white braided sageo is tied at the kurikata, its two-tone pattern providing a vivid counterpoint to the black saya and connecting visually to the green tsuka above.
At 41 inches overall and 3 lb, this katana presents with the proportions and weight of a full-sized replica. Every component - from the dragon-engraved T10 blade to the geometric gold tsuba and textured black saya - has been selected to work as a unified koshirae set. It displays well horizontally on a stand and holds its visual impact from across a room.
