The blade
A black 1060 blade with a decorative hamon line
Starfall uses 1060 carbon steel with a black finish. The wide, wavy line along its edge is listed as machine-made, so it is a decorative hamon rather than a claimed clay-tempered line. The blade is sharpened and full tang, measuring 72 cm. Its dark surface makes the pale wave especially visible in the close-up photos.
