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 / cyan crackle saya / Frostbite

Frostbite Katana with a Cyan Ice-Crackle Saya

Frostbite puts its brightest color on the scabbard. White crackle lines cover cyan-blue lacquer, while the blade stays polished silver and the handle stays black. A brass collar adds a small warm accent beside the dark guard. With the blade drawn, the blue saya and plain steel show two very different surfaces.

The blade

A silver-colored blade with a bo-hi groove

The blade is 1060 carbon steel with a bo-hi, the long recessed groove visible near its back. It has a polished silver-colored finish without a listed blue blade coating. Frostbite is sharpened and full tang, with a 72 cm blade and 105 cm overall length. The tip photo shows how the long groove follows the blade toward its point.

The fittings

Ice-like crackle on the saya

The white lines are a decorative crackle pattern over cyan-blue lacquered wood. They are intended to resemble fractured ice. Black cotton wrapping, a black scabbard cord and pale handle ornaments keep the rest of the sword more restrained. The dark circular iron guard has openings around its face, with a brass habaki beside the blade.

Blue on the saya or blue on the blade?

That distinction is useful when comparing cold-colored designs. Frostbite keeps its blade silver, while Nightwater puts blue and white decoration directly on the steel. Blue Sakura brings floral details into its blue palette. Compare the photos to decide which parts you want to carry the color.

In your collection

An antler-style stand is included

The set includes the matching cyan saya and an antler-style display stand on a dark base. The stand has a branching horn-like shape; its exact material is not specified. Allow room for the full 105 cm length, with the decorated scabbard visible and the sharpened edge kept secure.

Caring for your Frostbite katana

Follow the Care & Maintenance instructions above and keep the steel dry. Use a soft cloth around the groove and fittings, without touching the edge with bare fingers. Wipe the cyan lacquer gently and keep oil off the black cotton and scabbard exterior.

Frostbite katana questions

Is the Frostbite blade blue?

No. The blade has a polished silver-colored steel finish. The bright cyan-blue color and white crackle pattern are on the saya.

What is the ice-crackle pattern?

It is a decorative pattern of white lines over blue lacquered wood. It creates an ice-like appearance without being actual cracks through the wooden scabbard.

Does Frostbite have a bo-hi?

Yes. The long groove visible along the blade is called a bo-hi or fuller. You can follow the recessed line toward the point in the blade close-up.

What steel is used?

The blade is 1060 carbon steel. It is full tang and sharpened, with the full dimensions listed in the Specifications table above.

Is the stand made from real antler?

The listing identifies an antler-style stand, but does not confirm natural antler as the material. The name describes its branching horn-like shape.

Is this an ice sword from a video game?

Frostbite is presented as an original Katana Corp model with an ice-themed saya. It is not listed as a replica of a specific game weapon.

How does it differ from Nightwater?

Frostbite has a silver-colored blade and cyan crackle saya. Nightwater has a blue-and-white decorated blade and darker navy saya. Both list 1060 steel, but place their color differently.

Is it sharp, and what comes with it?

Yes. The sharpened katana, matching saya and antler-style stand are included. It is sold for collection and display and measures 105 cm overall, with a 72 cm blade.

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.
