Care & Maintenance

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.

Behind the Blade

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.

User Experience

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.

1060 steel / navy and gray / Arashi no Kiri

Arashi no Kiri Katana in Navy and Smoke Gray

Navy wrapping, a gray saya and a broad pale blade line give Arashi no Kiri its stormy look. The blade has a dark reflective face beside the brighter edge, while the scabbard carries a darker illustrated detail. Warm metallic fittings add a little contrast around the guard without changing the muted palette.

The blade

1060 steel with a decorative wavy line

The blade is listed as 1060 carbon steel with a machine-made hamon. The broad wave is therefore presented as a decorative line, not a clay-tempered one. Dark and bright reflections give the polished steel its changing appearance in the photos. The blade is sharpened, full tang and 72 cm long.

The fittings

A decorated gray saya with navy cotton

The saya has a smoke-gray lacquered finish with a dark illustration visible in the close-up. Navy cotton wrapping leaves pale diamond-shaped openings over synthetic rayskin on the handle. The thick navy cord matches the wrapping. A copper guard with warm-toned relief and a brass collar bring a small patch of gold color between the gray blade and blue handle.

Compare the line as well as the color

If the bold blade line is what catches your eye, compare the rounded pattern and black fittings of Kokuga. For a model that specifically lists clay tempering, Enbanaito combines a T10 hamon blade with a warmer copper-patterned saya. The steel guide helps separate steel, heat treatment and decorative finish.

In your collection

Keep the scabbard illustration visible

The matching saya and an ornate dragon display stand are included. Place the gray scabbard so its darker illustration can be seen, rather than turning that detail toward the back of the shelf. Leave room for the 105 cm overall length and keep the sharp blade secure.

Caring for your Arashi no Kiri katana

Keep the steel dry and follow the Care & Maintenance instructions above. Wipe the gray lacquer gently with a soft cloth, avoiding abrasives over the illustration. Keep blade oil away from the navy cotton and synthetic rayskin, and work carefully around the raised guard detail.

Arashi no Kiri katana questions

What steel does Arashi no Kiri use?

The blade is 1060 carbon steel with full-tang construction. It is listed as sharpened and has a machine-made decorative hamon line.

Is the hamon produced by clay tempering?

No. The specification describes a machine-made hamon, so this model is not presented as having a genuine clay-tempered line.

Does the blade have white bamboo engravings?

The blade photos show a broad wavy line rather than separate white bamboo stalks. The dark illustrated detail shown in the gallery belongs to the gray saya.

Is the saya black or gray?

It is described as smoke-gray lacquered wood. Its reflective finish and darker illustration can look different depending on the angle of the light.

What is the handle wrapped in?

The handle uses navy blue cotton over synthetic rayskin. The pale diamond shapes are the openings between the crossed wrapping.

Is this the same construction as Enbanaito?

No. Arashi no Kiri lists 1060 steel and a decorative hamon line. Enbanaito lists T10 steel with an authentic clay-tempered hamon, as well as different fittings and saya decoration.

What are the dimensions, and is a stand included?

Overall length is 105 cm, with a 72 cm blade and a 30 cm handle. The matching saya and an ornate display stand are included.

Is Arashi no Kiri sharp?

Yes. It has a sharpened steel blade and is sold for collection and display. Handle it carefully when cleaning it or arranging the sword and saya on their stand.

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.

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.
