Product Details
The blade on this katana is forged from T10 carbon steel - a high-carbon tool steel known for edge retention and structural toughness. At 40.5 inches overall with a 1.26-inch width and 0.275-inch thickness, the full-tang construction extends through the entire handle core. A visible hamon line traces the edge, the result of differential heat treatment that gives the blade its layered visual character. The chrome finish on the blade surface contrasts cleanly against the hand-engraved dragon and samurai scene etched across its length - detailed black ink linework depicting figures, floral elements, and scaled dragon forms that cover the blade face from ricasso to tip.
The tsuka is built in traditional koshirae style, with real white samegawa (ray skin) laid beneath tightly wrapped black ito cord in a classic diamond pattern. Ivory-toned menuki accents are visible at each wrap opening, adding a secondary detail layer to the handle. The kashira cap at the pommel matches the gold tone carried through the fittings.
The gold dragon tsuba is one of the most visually distinctive components of this piece. Cast with high-relief sculpting across the full disc surface, it depicts a coiling dragon amid cloud and wave forms. The asymmetric hitsu-ana cutouts and aged gold finish give it an antique quality that suits the overall koshirae aesthetic.
The saya is constructed from hardwood with a natural lacquer finish applied in white. Running its entire length is a hand-painted composition in black ink - a detailed scene featuring samurai figures, a coiling dragon, chrysanthemum blossoms, and layered cloud elements. A black sageo cord is knotted at the kurigata for traditional carry presentation. The contrast between the white saya ground and the dark ink artwork makes this the visual anchor of the piece.
At 3.17 lb. and 40.5 inches total, this katana is proportioned for wall display or as part of a Japanese Katana Sword collection. The packaging dimensions of 43.3 x 3.93 x 3.14 inches and 4.4 lb. shipping weight reflect secure boxing for safe delivery. Sword stand is not included.
