Wakizashi‑Diamond – Traditional Japanese Wakizashi T10 Clay‑Tempered Steel Demon‑Mask Brass Fittings Black Tsuka Black Textured Saya Short Samurai Side Sword

Product Introduction

The Wakizashi‑Diamond is authentic traditional Japanese wakizashi short samurai side‑arm sword, fully differentiated from anime‑theme katana replicas and ornamental long‑size collectible swords. This short‑size samurai weapon is built with premium T10 clay‑differential‑tempered steel producing clear visible hamon temper line. It comes with distinctive demon‑mask engraved solid brass fittings, full‑black moro‑hineri wrapped tsuka and special textured‑finish black hardwood saya. Wakizashi historically served as companion side‑arm for samurai daisho set. Target audiences include traditional nihonto wakizashi collectors, samurai‑culture interior‑decor enthusiasts, daisho‑set builders and distinctive short‑sword themed gifts.

The blade uses premium T10 high‑carbon steel with traditional tsuchioki clay‑differential tempering craft, forming natural visible wavy hamon temper line. Short‑size wakizashi shinogi‑zukuri geometry, no blood‑groove hi, clear yokote dividing line, compact wakizashi‑style kissaki tip and factory light‑sharp finish. Clay‑tempered blade surface and hamon line can scratch easily; only static display and photo‑shooting are allowed. Heavy chopping and violent impact should be avoided to preserve temper‑line surface condition.

Complete mounting set uses solid brass fittings with demon‑mask carving motif, round weathered‑look brass tsuba, demon‑mask‑pattern fuchi & kashira, small themed brass menuki ornaments and solid brass habaki / seppa washers. Short imogata‑style tsuka grip uses faux artificial ray‑fish samekawa inner lining wrapped with thick black moro‑hineri cotton ito. Scabbard is solid hardwood finished with special non‑gloss textured black lacquer, paired with thick black braided sageo cord and small brass clasp. Two natural bamboo mekugi pegs create fully‑removable full‑tang construction for convenient disassembly and blade anti‑rust maintenance. A plain black traditional‑theme fabric storage bag is included as free gift; custom wakizashi blade‑engraving upgrade available for extra charge.
