Samurai Shirasaya Katana – Traditional Japanese sword in minimalist white wood design

This decorative katana features a traditional Shirasaya mounting style with 104.1cm total length and 73.7cm blade. Crafted from Q235 steel with a plain-edge cutting edge and tanto point design, the sword weighs 2.08kg and comes in a seamless white wooden scabbard without tsuba guard plate.

Construction and materials

The blade is forged from Q235 steel (A3), a carbon steel commonly used for decorative swords. The white wood handle and scabbard create an uninterrupted flowing silhouette characteristic of Shirasaya-style mountings. Japanese inscriptions on the saya add authentic detailing to this ninjato sword design.

Application and use

This piece serves as a decorative display sword for collectors and enthusiasts of Japanese blade culture. The minimalist design makes it suitable for interior display in homes, offices, or martial arts dojos. Not intended for cutting practice or combat training.

Integration and compatibility

The sword fits standard katana display stands and wall mounts designed for 104cm length weapons. The smooth wooden surface without cord wrapping requires careful handling during mounting. Compatible with most universal sword display systems that accommodate the 2.08kg weight.

Maintenance and lifecycle

Regular dusting with a soft cloth maintains the white wood finish. The Q235 steel blade benefits from occasional oiling to prevent oxidation. Store in dry conditions to prevent wood discoloration and maintain the pristine appearance over time.
