Red Dragon Katana

War played a central role in the history of Japan, with warring clans shaping the land and the rise of the Samurai. Over centuries, the Samurai refined their weapons, armor, and code of honor, with the iconic daisho (paired swords) becoming their defining symbol. The katana, or long sword, evolved into the curved blade still admired today for its elegance and legacy. While this piece draws inspiration from those historic swords, it is designed as a decorative display sword rather than a functional weapon.

Ornate Dragon-Themed Detailing

This decorative katana measures 38" overall and features a sharpened-look 27 1/4" stainless steel blade. The scabbard is richly ornamented with metal fittings and a traditional-style wrap, complemented by a tsuba (crossguard) showcasing a detailed dragon motif that flows into the handle. The set also includes a Kozuka (small knife) and Kogai (hairdressing tool/thrower), both styled for display purposes. Additional embellishments include a Menuki (handle ornament) of an entwined dragon and a Kashira (pommel cap) shaped as a dragon’s head, echoing the dragon-themed Kojiri (scabbard cap).

For Display and Collection

With its intricate details and striking dragon designs, this katana is a fine decorative sword ideal for collectors, enthusiasts of Japanese history, or as a statement piece in your home or office décor. Please note: this is a display item only and not intended for martial arts practice or cutting use.
