By purchasing from Katana Corp, you acknowledge and agree that:
For full details, please refer to our Terms of Service.
To maintain your katana's appearance and performance over time, we recommend:
- Regularly wiping the blade with a soft cloth to remove fingerprints and moisture.
- Applying a light coat of choji oil to prevent rust (for carbon steel blades).
- Storing the sword in a dry place, preferably inside its saya.
- Avoiding direct contact with hard surfaces to preserve sharpness and finish.
For more care tips, check our full maintenance guide in the FAQ section.
Every katana we offer carries the essence of centuries-old craftsmanship.
More than just a weapon, the katana symbolizes discipline, honor, and mastery.
Our artisans draw inspiration from traditional forging methods to ensure each blade reflects the spirit of the samurai - strength, precision, and soul.
Owning one is not just about aesthetics - it’s about carrying a piece of that legacy.
This katana is designed to offer a perfect balance between blade and handle.
Its ergonomic tsuka (handle) allows a secure two-handed grip, while the weight distribution ensures smooth, fluid movement.
Sold for collection and display. Handle carefully when placing on a stand or carrying out maintenance.
Short swords in blue / Aonami
Aonami carries its blue theme from the blade to the scabbard. A white wavy line follows the colored steel, and blue synthetic rayskin shows through the black handle wrapping. The navy saya has a mottled finish, with dark blue cord and decorated metal fittings completing the set.
The blade
The blade is T10 tool steel with a blue finish and a machine-made decorative hamon line. The white wave along the blade is part of that appearance, not proof of clay tempering. Aonami has a 52 cm blade, full-tang construction and a sharpened edge. The blue color describes its finish rather than a separate type of steel.
The fittings
The cotton wrapping is black, with blue synthetic rayskin visible through the diamond openings. An iron guard carries sculpted dragon decoration in silver- and gold-colored tones, beside a brass collar with geometric openings. The deep navy wooden saya has a mottled lacquered surface and a blue textured end cap.
Aonami gives you a colored blade and a matching dark saya in the shorter wakizashi format. If the steel grade is your starting point, compare it with Tsukihana, another T10 wakizashi. They share the listed blade length but differ in color, fittings and hamon type. The wakizashi collection brings those alternatives together.
In your collection
The set includes the navy saya and an ornate dragon display stand. Allow for the listed 80 cm overall length. A plain backdrop helps the white wave stand out against the blue blade, while leaving the saya visible shows how the color continues through the fittings.
Keep the blade dry and follow the Care & Maintenance instructions above. Avoid abrasive polish on the blue finish and decorative line. Use a soft cloth on the lacquered saya and keep blade oil off the black cotton, synthetic rayskin and cord.
Yes. The specification lists T10 tool steel with a blue finish. The color is a finish on the blade, not a different steel grade.
No. Aonami lists a machine-made decorative hamon line. It should not be described as a genuine line produced by clay tempering.
The wrapping itself is black cotton. Blue synthetic rayskin shows beneath it through the diamond-shaped openings.
The wooden saya is deep navy with a mottled lacquered finish and blue textured end cap. The close-ups show the darker cord against the blue surface.
Both list T10 steel and a 52 cm blade. Aonami has a blue finish and decorative line; Tsukihana has a white saya and a listed genuine clay-tempered hamon. Their handle and guard designs also differ.
It measures 80 cm overall, with a 52 cm blade and a 25 cm handle. Its blade is shorter than the 72 cm katana blades common in the store.
Yes. The included items are the wakizashi, its navy wooden saya and an ornate dragon display stand.
Yes. Aonami is listed as sharpened and full tang. The colored finish does not make it a toy; it is sold for collection and display and needs careful handling.

Good sword, small issue on arrival
Saya mouth was slightly loose when I got it, fitting tape sorted it. Balance is great though. People at my dojo always ask about it.
Way better than I expected
Hamon is clean, handle wrap tight, saya closes solid. Came in a wooden box. No complaints at all for the price.
Got it as a gift, he was speechless
Bought for my boyfriend who does iaido. He said the fit and finish were legit. I knew nothing about swords, site made it easy to pick.
Nice blade but took 2 weeks to arrive
Damascus looks great. Shipping to Portland took forever and tracking was dead for a week. Quality is there, logistics need work.
Third order, still no complaints
Ordered three times over two years. Always well packed, matches the photos. Support replied same day. Will keep coming back.
