Step into the world of the samurai with this 40.9-inch Handmade Japanese Katana Sword, proudly forged by ABSWord. This stunning piece marries ancient craftsmanship with modern appeal, delivering a blade that’s as tough as it is beautiful—perfect for collectors, martial artists, or as a jaw-dropping gift.
A Blade Forged to Perfection
Crafted from premium Damascus steel, this katana boasts a mirror-like finish that catches the light with every move. The blade is folded 13 times, creating an impressive 8,192 layers that blend strength and flexibility. Our artisans heat-treat and hammer out impurities, then hand-apply a special clay—thin along the edge, thicker on the body—before quenching it in water. This traditional method hardens the cutting edge while keeping the spine supple, resulting in a gorgeous real hamon that traces the differential cooling process. With a full tang design and long Hi (grooves) on each side, it’s hand-polished using Japanese sharpening stones for a flawless, reflective surface that’s ready for action.
Flying Dragon Koshirae Details
This katana’s fittings tell a story of power and elegance. The brass tsuba (guard) features a detailed dragon design, paired with a solid brass habaki (blade collar) and two copper seppas (spacers) for a snug fit. The tsuka (handle) is wrapped in purplish-red synthetic silk ito, crisscrossed tightly in the hineri-maki style over pristine white genuine samegawa (ray skin) for a grip that feels secure and looks striking. Two brass dragon menuki grace each side, while brass fuchi (sleeve) and kashira (buttcap) add a polished finish. Double bamboo mekugi (pegs) anchor the tang, ensuring lasting stability.
Eye-Catching Sheath
The hardwood saya (sheath) shines with a black-and-red threadiness finish, offering rugged protection with a bold aesthetic. A thick purplish black-and-red synthetic sageo cord wraps around the bright copper kurigata (knob), tying the look together with flair. The hardened koiguchi (scabbard mouth) keeps the blade safe and snug.
