This Square Katana looks brighter than the black-saya versions because the white saya changes the first impression right away. The squared guard gives the mounting a cleaner geometric point, while the 1045 carbon steel blade and bo-hi / fuller keep the blade details clear without adding performance claims.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
What stands out first on this Square Katana?
The white saya stands out first. It gives the sword a brighter display profile than the black-saya Square Katana versions.
How does it compare with a black-saya Square Katana?
This one looks lighter and more visible on a stand or wall. A black saya keeps the outline quieter, while the white saya draws the eye sooner.
Is the blade 1045 carbon steel?
Yes. The listed steel grade is 1045 carbon steel, paired with a squared guard detail and white saya.
Does it have a bo-hi or fuller?
Yes. The blade is listed with a bo-hi / fuller, so the blade side has a visible groove instead of a completely plain surface.
How should I care for the carbon steel blade?
Keep the blade dry after handling and apply a light coat of suitable blade oil before storage. Carbon steel should not be left wet or unprotected.
