Rooted in the legacy of the samurai, this 40.5” katana is a true embodiment of Japanese sword-making tradition. Characterized by its iconic curved, single-edged blade, circular guard, and extended two-handed grip, the katana has long been revered as one of the finest cutting weapons in world history.
This particular model represents our highest grade katana—expertly handmade, hand-tempered, and hand-sharpened by master smiths and artisans. It features a steel blade crafted from 1095 high carbon steel, known for its exceptional hardness, edge retention, and durability.
1095 steel boasts one of the highest carbon contents available in sword-grade steel at 0.95%, offering superior hardness (56-58 HRC) and the ability to hold a razor-sharp edge. To offset the inherent brittleness of such high-carbon steel, this blade undergoes clay tempering—a traditional Japanese process that softens the spine while keeping the edge hard. This method increases flexibility and prevents breakage on impact, while creating a visually striking hamon line along the blade.
Blade Length: 40.5"

Tempering: Clay tempered for flexibility and durability
Rockwell Hardness: 56-58 HRC
Tang: Full tang for strength and balance

This katana is not only a weapon—it’s a work of art. Whether you're a martial artist, a collector, or simply someone who appreciates the mastery of handcrafted blades, this sword delivers an unmatched combination of performance, aesthetics, and authenticity.
Shipping times refer to carrier transit time after an item ships. They do not include production time, custom work, engraving, etching, or other preparation time before shipment.
In-stock items typically ship within 1 to 4 business days, though this can occasionally take longer during high-volume periods or for items requiring extra handling. Engraving or etching on in-stock items may add 1 to 3 business days before shipment.
Custom, engraved, altered, made-to-order, backordered, and specialty items (including armor and chess sets) may require additional production time before they ship. Fully custom items typically take 4 to 8 weeks, but complex requests may take longer depending on the design, materials, approvals, and production requirements.
Once an item ships, delivery time depends on the shipping method, carrier, and destination. If you need an item by a specific date, contact us before ordering so we can confirm whether the timeline is realistic.
In-stock items with no customizations can be returned free within 30 days, as long as they show no signs of use. Returns are handled through our return center.
Items that have any customization (such as engraving or etching) or that show signs of use cannot be returned. Custom and made-to-order items are produced specifically for your order and are not eligible for return.
If your item arrives damaged, incorrect, or defective, contact us with your order number and photos so we can review the issue.
