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.
Black 1060 steel / white lightning detail / Kurojin Raikiba
A jagged white line runs across Kurojin Raikiba's black blade, giving it a graphic look from a distance. Closer to the handle, a dark dragon guard and warm brass collar add smaller details. The saya uses a softer gray illustration over black, while the black cotton wrapping keeps the handle in the same dark palette.
The blade
The blade is listed as 1060 carbon steel, with a black finish and white lightning-shaped decoration. The light zigzag is the clearest visual detail along the blade. It is a 72 cm sharpened, full-tang blade. The line is decorative, and an authentic clay-tempered hamon is not specified for this model.
The fittings
The iron-alloy tsuba has raised dragon decoration with small gold-toned accents. A brass collar with geometric cutouts provides a bright border beside it. Black cotton ito covers synthetic rayskin on the handle. The photographed saya is glossy black with gray dragon-like illustration, and a black sageo keeps the cord within that dark color scheme.
For a blue blade with branching white decoration, compare the Lightning katana. Shimokaminari instead uses dark Damascus steel and a white crackle-pattern saya. Kurojin Raikiba puts the boldest white detail on the blade itself, so its appearance changes noticeably when sheathed.
In your collection
The matching saya and a wooden stand are listed with the sword. If you display the blade outside the scabbard, leave the white line and gray saya illustration facing outward. A lighter background helps both patterns remain visible. Allow room for the 105 cm overall length and secure the sharpened edge.
Dry the steel after handling and follow the Care & Maintenance instructions above. Avoid abrasive cleaners on the black finish and white decoration. Wipe the illustrated lacquer with a soft cloth, keeping blade oil off the cotton and synthetic rayskin.
The blade has a black finish with a white lightning-shaped line and a lighter reflective edge. Its material specification is 1060 carbon steel.
It is presented as decorative linework. The listing does not specify an authentic clay-tempered hamon, so the jagged white shape should not be read as evidence of that process.
No. Kurojin Raikiba has a black blade with an angular white pattern and black cotton wrapping. Lightning Katana uses a blue blade with branching white decoration and different fittings.
The product photos show gray dragon-like illustration on a glossy black scabbard. The bold white lightning-shaped line belongs to the blade.
The guard is listed as iron alloy, with raised dragon decoration. The blade collar is brass with geometric cutouts.
It is wrapped in black cotton over synthetic rayskin. Small warm-colored details are visible through the diamond-shaped openings.
The listing includes a matching saya and a wooden display stand. Overall length is 105 cm, with a 72 cm blade and a 30 cm handle.
It is a sharpened, full-tang steel sword sold for collection and display. It should be handled and stored as a sharp blade, not as a blunt costume accessory.

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.
