This Whirling Cloud Katana uses a black lacquer saya as the background for mother-of-pearl inlay, so the shell detail appears sharper against the darker surface. It looks more dramatic than the red raden version, while the blade remains listed as 1045 high carbon steel with heat tempering.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

What should I notice first on this Whirling Cloud Katana?
The black lacquer saya and mother-of-pearl inlay are the first details. The dark background makes the shell contrast stronger.
How is this different from the red raden version?
The black version gives the inlay a darker background, so the shell detail looks sharper and more dramatic.
Is the blade 1045 carbon steel?
Yes. The listed steel grade is 1045 high carbon steel.
Is the inlay a painted effect?
The original page describes raden, or mother-of-pearl inlay, set into the lacquered saya.
How should I care for the carbon steel blade?
Keep the blade dry after handling and oil it lightly before storage.
