FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Is this 1045 steel or Damascus?
It is both: 1045 carbon steel is the base steel grade, while Damascus describes the folded pattern and construction visible on the blade.
What makes this Maple Leaf Katana distinct?
Maple Leaf fittings provide the main visual cue and separate the page from Vine, Dragon, or crest-themed Katana listings.
What does the black saya add?
The black saya keeps the presentation direct and lets the leaf theme carry the identity.
What details matter most?
Compare Maple Leaf fittings, 1045 carbon steel, black saya, and full Katana profile.
How do I maintain the blade?
Wipe dry after handling or use. Apply a light coat of choji or mineral oil along the full blade length before storing. Carbon steel will develop surface rust if left wet or unprotected β a minute of care after each session keeps the blade in condition indefinitely.
How do I know the quality is genuine?
Every sword is individually inspected and adjusted before leaving our California warehouse. We check edge geometry, fitment of all components, and the security of the mekugi pegs before packing. If anything is not right, it does not ship.
