The katana is one of the most iconic weapons in Japanese history, wielded by samurai warriors throughout ancient and feudal Japan. Recognized for its curved, single-edged blade, circular or squared guard, and long two-handed grip, the katana is revered as one of the finest cutting weapons in military history.
By definition, a katana refers to a sword with a blade length of over 24 inches. This 41-inch katana is crafted from high-carbon 1095 steel with brass bolsters, combining traditional craftsmanship with modern durability.
The blade is forged from 1095 high-carbon steel, renowned for its exceptional hardness and edge retention. Unlike 1045 steel (which contains only 0.45% carbon), 1095 steel boasts a 0.95% carbon content, making it significantly stronger and capable of maintaining a razor-sharp edge.
However, 1095 steel is naturally rigid, which can make it prone to breaking on high-impact collisions. To increase flexibility while preserving strength, this katana undergoes a clay tempering process:
This process creates a perfect balance of strength and flexibility, producing a durable, razor-sharp katana capable of withstanding intense use.
This high-carbon 1095 steel katana is perfect for collectors, martial artists, and enthusiasts who appreciate the blend of traditional craftsmanship and modern forging techniques. The redwood sheath adds a touch of elegance, making this sword a stunning display piece and a functional weapon built for serious practitioners.
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.
