Product Details
The blade is ground from 1095 high-carbon steel and brought to a mirror-polished, chrome-bright finish that makes the steel's geometry fully visible from tip to habaki. Without clay tempering, the surface reads as a single clean plane of light - no hamon line, just the precise geometry of the grind and a hand-finished edge running the full length of the 40.55-inch profile. Full tang construction anchors the blade solidly into the handle assembly, keeping weight distribution consistent at 2.8 lbs.
The tsuka is built on a hardwood core wrapped in PU white samegawa, providing the raised diamond texture that the ito braid locks against. Black cotton ito is then wound in a standard hishi-gumi pattern, leaving white samegawa diamonds exposed at each crossing. The result is the sharp black-and-white contrast visible in the product images. A white cotton fuchi collar sits at the base of the wrap, bridging the handle cleanly to the tsuba.
The tsuba is cast from alloy in a square form with rounded corners and carries a raised mon engraving at its center - the same family crest motif shown in the close-up image. Its gold tone contrasts deliberately against the silver blade and the white habaki, giving the transition zone between blade and handle a warm, structured accent. For collectors exploring Hand Forged Katana options, this fitting combination offers a cohesive koshirae presentation.
The saya is shaped from hardwood and finished in a deep teal lacquer that reads blue-green depending on the light angle - consistent with the metallic teal visible throughout the product photography. A blue-and-white striped sageo cord is secured at the koiguchi with a formal knot, the cord's stripe pattern echoing the ito wrap on the handle and tying the full koshirae palette together. This piece fits naturally within the broader Blue Samurai Sword category for collectors building a themed display.
Overall length is 40.55 inches, blade width 1.259 inches, blade thickness 0.275 inches, shipping weight 3.3 lbs. The saya, sageo, tsuba, habaki, fuchi, and kashira are all included. No sword stand is included with this set.
