This traditionally hand-forged Japanese katana is made from high carbon steel using clay tempering and heat treatment processes. The full tang blade measures approximately 39.4 inches with an overall length of about 40.5 inches and a handle length of 10.4 inches, wrapped in soft cotton for enhanced grip. Handmade through a series of processes including forging, grinding, and quenching, the katana reflects centuries-old craftsmanship developed for both battlefield utility and ceremonial significance in feudal Japan.
