## Overview

The 1045 Katana from the Classic Tsuba Series is a hand-forged, heat-tempered Japanese sword featuring a 28.3-inch 1045 high-carbon steel blade with full tang construction. Its cherry-blossom themed iron tsuba and rayskin-wrapped handle combine traditional aesthetics with functional design. Lightweight bo-hi grooves optimize balance and handling, while the lacquered saya and included protective accessories make it a complete, ready-to-use collector’s piece or training sword.

## Description

The classic 1045 katana family brings together our long-running hand-forged line: blades of 1045 carbon steel, heat-tempered for a visible wavy temper line and finished for dojo practice. Each katana is set apart by its themed iron tsuba and saya finish - dragons, cranes, warriors, temples and more - while sharing the same full tang construction, rayskin-and-ito wrapped handle, and bamboo mekugi pegs. Every sword ships with its saya, a protective sword bag, and a packaging tube.

## Features

- 【Sakura Tomoe Hero Katana】A hand forged katana themed around the sakura cherry-blossom motif, with tomoe menuki set beneath the wrap. The blade is 1045 high-carbon steel, built as a true full tang, with a 28.3-inch finished functional edge for a balanced, authentic feel in the hand.
- 【Heat-Tempered 1045 Blade】The 1045 high-carbon steel blade is heat-tempered, drawing a visible wavy temper pattern along the edge, and is then finished to a working edge. A bo-hi fuller is ground down each side to lighten the blade, shift balance toward the hand, and give an audible note through the cut.
- 【Cherry-Blossom Tsuba & Rayskin Handle】The blade carries a cherry-blossom tsuba seated against a habaki collar. The wood handle is wrapped over genuine rayskin (samegawa) in black cotton ito, with tomoe menuki bound underneath. The full two-handed grip delivers controlled, even handling.
- 【Full Tang & Lacquered Saya】The full tang runs the length of the handle and is locked with bamboo mekugi pegs. The katana rides in a black piano-lacquered wooden saya fitted with a matching sageo cord. Measured dimensions: blade 28.3 in, handle 10.7 in, overall 40.6 in.
- 【What Is Included】You receive the katana with its black saya, a protective sword bag, and a packaging tube. The display stand shown in the photographs is not part of the package.
