Product Details

The blade is forged from 1095 carbon steel and runs 40.5 inches at a width of 1.26 inches, ground to a polished chrome finish with a clean, symmetrical taper toward the kissaki. At 3.17 lb, the full tang construction carries weight and balance through the entire length, keeping the odachi stable in hand. The hand-finished edge reflects light evenly along the cutting side, consistent with the precision-finished blade noted across this line. For collectors exploring large-format Japanese swords, the Odachi collection offers additional references in this format.

The tsuka is built over an orange base wrap and bound with brown cord in a traditional diamond pattern, with menuki accents visible between the crossings. The wrap sits firmly across the full grip length, providing reliable purchase on a handle scaled for a two-hand odachi draw. Fuchi and kashira fittings are finished in antiqued bronze tones, tying the handle hardware to the tsuba and saya fittings.

The tsuba is cast alloy in a shaped silhouette - slightly squared with curved corner cutouts - and engraved with dense ornate scroll relief across both faces. The aged bronze finish gives the guard a textured, dimensional look. A gold-tone habaki seats the blade cleanly against the tsuba, providing a firm lockup between guard and scabbard collar.

The saya is shaped from hardwood and finished in a natural lacquer that reads as a warm amber-orange, consistent with the tsuka color and creating a unified koshirae presentation. Kojiri and koiguchi fittings are cast in matching antiqued bronze, and a multi-strand braided sageo in brown, red, and white is looped through the kurigata, adding movement and traditional detail. Collectors looking at comparable long-sword formats may also find the Japanese Nodachi Sword collection useful for comparison.
