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.
Blue blade / white wave pattern / Hekinan
Hekinan puts most of its color into blue steel decoration, blue wrapping and a blue saya. A pale wave-like border runs along the blade, while white diamonds show between the handle crossings. The black openwork guard adds a crisp geometric detail beside the softer curves of the blade pattern.
The blade
Hekinan has a sharpened, full-tang 1060 carbon steel blade with a blue finish. The pale wave-like shapes form a decorative border along the colored section. They are separate from the steel grade and are not described as a clay-tempered hamon. The blade measures 72 cm, with width and thickness listed in the table above.
The fittings
Sky-blue cotton wraps over white synthetic rayskin on the handle. A blue cord ties around the glossy wooden saya, continuing the same color family. The iron guard has rectangular openings and a silver-colored rim. A small brass collar adds a warm geometric crest between the blue blade and black guard.
Hekinan combines a decorated blue blade with blue wrapping. Azure Spirit keeps the handle black and lists 1095 steel, a bo-hi groove and a clay-tempered hamon. Frostbite keeps its blade silver-colored and puts the icy color on the saya. The steel guide covers the materials behind those different finishes.
In your collection
The matching saya and a horn-style display stand are included. With the blade sheathed, the lighter wrapping and glossy blue scabbard carry the color. A secure display with the blade visible also shows the pale border. Allow room for the 105 cm overall length.
Follow the Care & Maintenance instructions above and keep the blade dry. Avoid abrasive products on the blue finish and white decoration. Wipe the glossy saya with a soft cloth and keep blade oil away from the sky-blue cotton and synthetic rayskin.
Yes. The blade has a blue decorative finish over 1060 carbon steel, with pale wave-like shapes along the colored surface. The handle and saya also use blue tones.
It is presented as an original wave-themed design, rather than a replica of a named anime or game weapon. Choose it for its blue palette and geometric guard.
The white wave-like border is described as decoration. A genuine clay-tempered hamon is not specified for Hekinan.
The iron tsuba uses a geometric grid of rectangular openings, edged with a silver-colored rim. It contrasts with the flowing blade decoration.
No. The material beneath the sky-blue cotton wrapping is white synthetic rayskin. The pale diamonds visible on the handle are formed by the wrapping gaps.
Hekinan lists 1060 steel and emphasizes its wave pattern and blue handle. Azure Spirit lists 1095 steel with a clay-tempered hamon, a bo-hi groove and black wrapping. The difference is more than the shade of blue.
Yes. It has a sharpened, full-tang steel blade. It is sold for collection and display, so secure the edge when arranging it and handle it carefully during maintenance.
The katana, matching saya and display stand are included. Overall length is 105 cm, with a 72 cm blade and a 30 cm handle.

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.
