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.

Rosewood fittings / 1060 steel / Mokuro Kageuchi

Mokuro Kageuchi Katana with a Rosewood Handle and Saya

Mokuro Kageuchi leaves the wood grain in view. The handle has no cotton wrapping, and the matching rosewood saya carries no cord or painted motif. A small brass collar marks the transition to the polished blade. Sheathed, the sword reads as a simple curved wooden form; unsheathed, its broad scalloped blade line becomes the main decoration.

The blade

1060 steel with a decorative scalloped hamon

The blade is specified as 1060 carbon steel, full tang and sharpened. Its rounded, scalloped line is identified in the model information as machine-made decoration. It is not presented as an authentic clay-tempered hamon. The polished blade measures 72 cm, with a simple brass collar at its base and very little metal ornament around the handle.

The fittings

A bare rosewood handle and matching scabbard

The handle is listed as natural rosewood with visible grain and no wrapping. The same wood is specified for the saya, which has a smooth surface and no sageo cord. Brown grain and darker swirls provide the decoration here. There is no cotton ito or rayskin covering the grip, leaving the wooden surface visible along the handle.

Wooden fittings around a real steel blade

If you are comparing wood-handled katanas, look at the blade material as well as the fittings. Mokuro Kageuchi has a sharp 1060 steel blade inside its wooden saya. For another rosewood design with Damascus steel and a listed clay-tempered hamon, compare Ronin Wood. Kogarashi takes a warmer metallic direction with copper-colored lacquer and brown cotton.

In your collection

Give the wood grain a simple backdrop

An ornate wooden stand and matching saya are included. You can keep the sword sheathed to show the continuous brown form, or arrange the blade securely beside the saya to reveal the scalloped line. Allow room for its 105 cm overall length and keep the wood away from prolonged damp or strong direct sunlight.

Caring for your Mokuro Kageuchi katana

Use a soft, dry cloth on the rosewood and avoid soaking the handle or saya. Keep cleaning solvents and blade oil off the wood. After handling the steel, dry it and follow the blade care instructions above. Support the sword securely while cleaning around the sharp edge.

Mokuro Kageuchi katana questions

Is this a wooden sword for practice?

No. The handle and saya are rosewood, but the blade is sharpened 1060 carbon steel. Mokuro Kageuchi is sold for collection and display, not as a wooden training sword.

Why does the handle have no wrapping?

The bare rosewood handle is part of this model's design. There is no cotton ito or rayskin covering the grip, so you can see the wood grain directly.

Is the hamon produced by clay tempering?

No. The existing model information identifies the scalloped line as machine-produced decoration. It gives the blade a hamon-like appearance without claiming an authentic clay-tempered line.

Does it have a saya cord?

No sageo is listed. The matching rosewood scabbard keeps a plain surface without a cord tied around it.

Will every piece have exactly the same wood grain?

Natural wood grain can vary, so the photos are a guide to the overall color and appearance. The precise swirls and darker lines need not match on every handle and saya.

How does it compare with Ronin Wood?

Mokuro Kageuchi lists 1060 steel, a decorative hamon and an unwrapped rosewood handle. Ronin Wood lists Damascus steel with a genuine clay-tempered hamon and different handle fittings. Compare their specifications as well as the wood color.

How long is it, and is the stand included?

It measures 105 cm overall, with a 72 cm blade and a 30 cm handle. The matching rosewood saya and an ornate wooden display stand are included.

Does 1060 steel mean the hamon is genuine?

No. A steel grade and a hamon process describe different things. This model specifies 1060 steel and a decorative line. The steel guide explains those terms.

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.
