Wakizashi Kurohada (黒刃脇差) – The Black Edge Blade
Sleek and formidable, the Wakizashi Kurohada blends classical craftsmanship with sharp utility. Forged from 1060 carbon steel, this blade is enhanced by a visible hamon and a bo-hi groove that not only adds character but reduces weight for greater speed and handling.
A copper habaki, engraved and polished, anchors the blade with elegance at the base. The tsuka (handle) is wrapped in black cotton ito over traditional cord, offering a secure grip, while the finely sculpted iron tsuba provides classic Japanese detailing. The black sageo complements the overall aesthetic, tying the blade to its solid wood saya finished in textured black lacquer.
With its practical balance, authentic materials, and battle-ready profile, the Kurohada is ideal for collectors, iaido practitioners, and samurai enthusiasts alike.
