Product Details
The blade on this Damascus steel wakizashi is hand-forged from layered steel, producing the flowing grain pattern visible across the flat and a clearly defined hamon line along the edge. At 30.3 inches overall with a chrome-polished finish, the blade reflects light cleanly from spine to tip, with the hamon providing a natural visual boundary between the hardened edge and the body of the steel.
The tsuka is wrapped in black cotton ito over real white samegawa - the classic diamond cross-pattern seats cleanly with white menuki visible beneath the ito at the grip points. The handle sits firmly in hand, and the full tang construction carries through to ensure consistent balance across the piece at 2.1 lbs total weight. This is a Real Hamon Wakizashi built with traditional koshirae-style fittings throughout.
The tsuba is one of the most visually distinct elements of this build - a gold-black ornate scroll design with layered, relief-carved edges that spread outward in an irregular organic shape. The dark oxidized body contrasts sharply with the gold-tone raised detailing, and the copper-tone habaki sits just beneath it, bridging blade and guard.
The saya is finished in black hardwood piano lacquer - a high-gloss surface that mirrors the blade's chrome tone. The interior of the saya is fitted with real horn at both the koiguchi (mouth) and kojiri (tip), while the blue-toned dotted rayskin panel and black sageo cord at the kurikata add the only color accent in an otherwise all-black presentation. For collectors exploring this style, the Black Damascus Steel Wakizashi collection offers additional builds in this finish combination.
