Kokubyaku Katana Sword: design and finishes

The name Kokubyaku (黒白) evokes the perfect balance between opposites, where “koku” (黒) represents black and “byaku” (白) symbolizes white. The striking contrast between these two colors reveals the beauty of balance and spiritual depth sought by Japanese master swordsmiths.

Its manganese steel blade features a striking two-tone finish where pearly white subtly blends with deep black, creating a captivating visual effect enhanced by the midare gunome hamon that undulates along the edge. The bo-hi carved into the blade lightens the overall design while producing a characteristic whistling sound during movement. The round black alloy tsuba features delicate engravings that complement the monochrome aesthetic, while the smooth black alloy fuchi and kashira elegantly frame the handle. The tsuka combines faux black stingray skin with black tsuka-ito braiding in a diamond pattern, adorned with menuki representing black dragons, symbols of power. The black and white lacquered wooden saya with a brushed effect offers a striking contrast, its black ends (kojiri and koiguchi) unifying the whole, complemented by a traditional black sageo.
