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.

Damascus / rosewood saya / Ronin Wood

Ronin Wood Damascus Katana with a Rosewood Saya

Warm brown wood and a burgundy cord give Ronin Wood a quieter palette than a brightly lacquered sword. The blade is sharpened Damascus steel, with a visible hamon and small cloud-wave details near the collar. A dark dragon guard adds a gold-colored diamond emblem between the polished steel and black handle.

The blade

Damascus steel with a clay-tempered hamon

Ronin Wood lists a genuine clay-tempered hamon on its Damascus blade, with cloud-wave engraving near the copper habaki. The blade is 72.4 cm long, and the overall sword measures 100 cm. Its 26.3 cm handle and 0.6 cm blade thickness differ from the common dimensions on many of our other models. It remains sharpened and full tang.

Brown rosewood saya and dark fittings on the Ronin Wood katana

The fittings

Rosewood, burgundy cord and a dark dragon guard

The saya is listed as rosewood, with visible brown grain and dragon relief decoration. A burgundy cord wraps around it. The ferro-alloy guard has dark dragon relief and a gold-colored diamond emblem, while black cotton covers genuine rayskin on the handle. The copper collar provides a smaller warm-toned accent beside the blade.

Wood refers to the scabbard, not the blade

Ronin Wood is a steel katana with a wooden saya. It is not a wooden practice sword or a plain, guardless shirasaya design. If you like visible wood grain, compare Kuroki, which uses a different natural-wood saya and fittings. Our steel guide explains the Damascus description separately from those scabbard materials.

In your collection

Leave the grain and burgundy cord visible

The matching saya and an ornate dragon display stand are included. The wooden scabbard brings its own detail to a display, so leave room for it beside the blade. At 100 cm overall, Ronin Wood is slightly shorter than our usual 105 cm format, but still needs a stable location with the edge secure.

Caring for your Ronin Wood katana

Keep the blade dry and follow the Care & Maintenance instructions above. Wipe the saya with a soft cloth and avoid soaking the wood or cord. Keep blade oil away from the burgundy wrapping and genuine rayskin, and handle the decorated fittings gently.

Ronin Wood katana questions

Is Ronin Wood a wooden katana?

No. Its blade is sharpened Damascus steel. Wood refers to the rosewood saya, so this model should not be confused with a wooden training sword.

Is this a shirasaya katana?

No. Ronin Wood has a separate guard, wrapped handle and decorated saya. Its wooden scabbard does not make it a plain shirasaya mounting.

Is the hamon genuine?

Yes. The specification lists a true clay-tempered hamon on the Damascus blade. The temper line can be seen in the blade close-up.

What are the markings near the collar?

The blade is listed with cloud-wave engravings near the habaki, the collar beside the guard. They are separate from the hamon running near the edge.

What kind of wood is used for the saya?

The specification lists rosewood with natural grain and carved dragon relief. The brown wood contrasts with the darker metal fittings and burgundy cord.

Is the rayskin genuine?

Yes. Genuine rayskin sits beneath the black cotton handle wrapping. The small grip ornaments are visible through the crossings.

How large is Ronin Wood?

It measures 100 cm overall, with a 72.4 cm blade and 26.3 cm handle. Blade thickness is listed as 0.6 cm. These are the measurements for this model, not the standard 105 cm format.

Is it sharp, and what is included?

Yes. The katana is sharpened and sold for collection and display. Its matching rosewood saya and an ornate display stand are included.

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.
