T10 Carbon Steel Katana with Clay-Tempered Hamon Blade - Dark Green Saya, Brown Ito, Gold Samurai Tsuba

The blade on this katana is forged from T10 carbon steel and clay-tempered, producing a hardened cutting edge alongside a more resilient spine. The resulting hamon follows a raging fire pattern - an active, wave-like temper line that stands out clearly against the polished chrome surface. A dragon engraving runs along the blade flat, adding depth to the visual without interrupting the clean geometry of the 40.5-inch nagasa. Explore more options in our Steel Katana collection.

The tsuka is built on a full tang foundation, meaning the steel runs uninterrupted from tip to pommel. Brown cotton ito is wound over genuine white same (ray skin) in a traditional diamond wrap, creating both a secure hold and the textured aesthetic of classical koshirae construction. The grip feels solid in hand and holds its shape under repeated use.

The tsuba is cast in a gold tone and depicts a samurai scene in relief - a warrior figure set against trees, water, and landscape elements. The level of carving detail is well above what most production pieces offer, and the aged gold finish gives it a museum-quality weight and presence.

The saya is shaped from hardwood and finished in a dark green matte lacquer. The surface has a subtle texture rather than a high-gloss sheen, which keeps the overall look grounded and traditional. A braided brown sageo is attached at the kurikata, echoing the brown ito of the handle and tying the full koshirae together visually.
