This katana pairs a clean manganese-steel blade with a striking blue crackle-lacquer (冰裂) wood saya to match the indigo tsuka-ito. Brass-tone fittings complete the look, echoing the blade’s cool tone. Built for display, collection, and non-contact kata—balanced, lightweight, and easy to maintain.

Manganese-Steel Blade — tough, easy to care for; visible hamon-style polish for display appeal. Indigo Cord Wrap — traditional grip over a wooden core; brass-tone tsuba/seppa accents.
