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.
Gold and black design / Gold
The gold finish runs from the blade into a fan-shaped guard and gold-wrapped handle. A black scabbard with pale crackle lines gives this gold katana a darker backdrop, making the blade engraving and metalwork easier to pick out.
The blade
The blade is 1095 carbon steel with a gold-toned finish, a sharpened edge and full-tang construction. A long groove, called a bo-hi, adds a clear line along the blade. Near the guard, an engraved serpent motif supplies the smaller detail. The finish gives the steel its color; the blade is not made from solid gold.
The fittings
The iron-alloy guard has a gold-plated finish and a fan-like shape with radiating ridges. Gold synthetic leather wraps the handle over genuine black rayskin, leaving dark diamond-shaped openings between the folds. A brass collar and matching gold cord connect those warm fittings to the black lacquered wooden saya.
White-and-gold lines cross the black saya, giving it a crackled appearance beside the smooth blade. The pattern is decorative; it is not a claim that the scabbard has been repaired with gold. Together with the fan guard, it gives this model a different character from a sword that simply has a gold-colored handle.
In your collection
The wooden display stand is included with the sword and scabbard. Showing the blade above the black saya keeps the warm finish and pale crackle lines visible at the same time. Allow for 105 cm of overall sword length, and leave the guard clear of nearby objects so its raised details remain easy to see.
Follow the Care & Maintenance instructions above for the carbon-steel blade. Avoid abrasive polish on the gold-toned finish, engraving and plated fittings. Wipe the saya gently and keep oil or harsh cleaners away from the synthetic leather wrap and rayskin.
The blade is 1095 carbon steel with a gold-toned finish. The guard is gold-plated iron alloy, and the blade collar is brass. It is not a solid-gold sword.
It is a bo-hi, a lengthwise groove in the blade. The close-up shows it alongside the engraved motif near the guard.
The outer wrap is synthetic leather. The black rayskin beneath it is listed as genuine. These are two separate materials in the handle.
No such repair is specified. The wooden saya has a decorative white-and-gold crackle pattern over black lacquer.
1095 is the listed carbon-steel grade of this blade. It does not by itself give a tested hardness for the finished sword. Our steel guide explains the grades used across the shop.
Yes. It has a sharpened steel blade and full-tang construction. It is sold for collection and display, so treat the edge carefully when arranging or maintaining it.
The katana measures 105 cm overall, approximately 41 inches. The blade is 72 cm long and the handle is 30 cm.
Yes. The black crackle-patterned scabbard and wooden display stand are included with the katana.

Customer reviews
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.
