T10 Carbon Steel Ninjato in Shirasaya Style with Rosewood Saya and Gold Tsuba

The blade on this ninjato is forged from T10 carbon steel and hand-finished to bring out a natural hamon line along the edge. The straight, single-edged profile tapers cleanly to a chisel tip, and the chrome-polished surface catches light with a bright, mirror-like contrast against the visible activity in the steel. At 40.5 inches overall with a 1.26-inch width and 0.275-inch spine thickness, the geometry stays lean and purposeful.

Construction is full-tang throughout, meaning the steel extends continuously from tip to the base of the handle. This keeps the 3.17 lb weight distributed naturally and prevents any flex or play between blade and grip - a detail that matters whether the sword is on a display stand or in hand.

The tsuka follows a true shirasaya format: no ito wrapping, no ray skin, just smooth rosewood shaped to a rectangular cross-section. The warm reddish-brown grain is left natural, letting the wood's own texture serve as the visual interest. A small decorative pin is set flush into the handle for a tidy, uncluttered finish.

Sitting at the blade collar is a gold-toned tsuba with an ornate scroll cutout pattern - a deliberate contrast to the otherwise understated wood palette. The latticed openwork adds visual depth without adding bulk, and the warm gold reads well against the brown rosewood tones on either side.

The hardwood natural saya matches the tsuka in both material and finish - a single continuous wood tone from tip to pommel when sheathed. Overall the piece weighs 3.17 lb and ships in a 43.3 x 3.93 x 3.14 in box at 4.4 lb. For collectors looking at the full range of T10 Steel Ninja Swords, this shirasaya configuration stands out for its restraint and wood-forward aesthetic.
