- Full tang Damascus steel blade with a vivid purple finish - each sword shows its own unique layered pattern across the 29-inch nagasa, delivering visual depth that no two pieces replicate exactly.
- Handle wrapped in PU purple samegawa under black cord ito in a traditional diamond pattern, pairing a secure grip with a bold black-and-purple color contrast that carries through the entire koshirae.
- Hardwood saya finished in lacquer with a textured black-and-purple mottled surface - the irregular magenta fleck pattern gives the scabbard a distinctive, almost stone-like visual character.
- Gold-tone iron tsuba cast with a raised dragon relief - the intricate carving wraps the full guard face, adding a classical symbol of power to the sword's otherwise modern color palette.

Product Details
The blade on this katana is forged from Damascus steel and carries a deep purple finish that shifts between blue and magenta tones depending on the light angle. The layered steel construction produces the material's characteristic flowing surface pattern, visible across the full length of the nagasa. At 41 inches overall and 3 lbs, the sword balances traditional geometry with a color treatment that makes it an immediate focal point in any display. Collectors drawn to the Purple Damascus Katana category will find this piece sits at the intersection of material quality and bold visual design.
The tsuka is built over a full tang core, wrapped first in PU purple samegawa and then bound with black cord ito in a classic diagonal wrap. The dark cord pulls tight against the purple underlayer, creating a high-contrast diamond pattern along the grip. The menuki are seated beneath the wrap, adding subtle surface relief where the hand naturally rests. Gold-tone fittings at the habaki and fuchi tie the handle hardware to the tsuba's color family.
The tsuba is cast in a gold-tone iron and features a fully sculpted dragon relief across both faces of the guard. The dragon motif covers the entire surface, with scaled body sections and claw details rendered with sharp definition. The warm gold tone of the tsuba bridges the purple of the blade and the dark cord of the handle, keeping the overall koshirae visually coherent rather than fragmented.
The hardwood saya is finished with natural lacquer over a textured surface that shows an irregular pattern of deep magenta and black - a mottled, almost volcanic texture that reads as a deliberate artistic choice rather than a simple painted finish. A black sageo cord is knotted at the kurikata in a traditional wrap. The saya's color treatment directly mirrors the handle's purple-black scheme, unifying the drawn and sheathed presentations of the sword.

Overall dimensions measure 41 inches in length with a blade width of 1.259 inches and spine thickness of 0.275 inches. Shipping weight is 4 lbs. The sword stand is not included. This piece is designed as a collectible and display item, suited for collectors who want Damascus steel construction paired with a non-traditional purple color palette executed consistently across blade, saya, and handle.
