Product Details
The blade on this katana is forged from T10 carbon steel and finished to a bright chrome polish, with a clearly defined hamon line running along the edge - a direct result of the heat-tempering process applied during production. At 40.5 inches overall and 1.26 inches wide, the blade tapers cleanly to a fine kissaki tip, visible in the close-up image. No clay-tempering is specified for this piece; the hamon is produced through precision differential hardening that gives the steel its characteristic contrast between edge and spine.
The tsuka is assembled in full koshirae style. Black tsuka-ito is wrapped in a classic diamond (hishi-gumi) pattern over a PU samegawa base, with a pair of gold menuki ornaments set flush into both sides of the grip. The kashira endcap is finished in matching gold tone, keeping the handle fittings visually unified. The full tang blade seats through the handle core, with the copper habaki acting as the collar between blade and tsuba.
The tsuba is a round, slightly oval form in a warm gold tone, with surface engraving featuring kamon-style circular medallion motifs - two on the face and two on the reverse, as seen in the detail image. A copper seppa sits between the tsuba and habaki, adding a subtle two-tone accent at the blade collar. The overall fittings reflect a traditional Tachi Katana koshirae aesthetic.
The saya is lacquered hardwood in deep gloss black, hand-painted with a gold crane scene along its full length - cranes in flight, floral rosettes, and geometric chevron accents are clearly visible in the product image. Four raised gold floral menuki-style ornaments are set along the upper saya body, and a black braided sageo cord is knotted at the kurigata. The combination of matte black cord and gold painted motifs gives this scabbard strong visual contrast.
Total assembled length is 40.5 inches with an overall weight of 3.17 lb. The package ships at 4.4 lb in a 43.3 x 3.93 x 3.14-inch box. This piece suits collectors drawn to Black Tiger Katana aesthetics - bold black and gold colorways with detailed hand-applied saya artwork and traditional koshirae hardware.
