Inferno Blade | 1095 "Folded Red" Steel Katana

Forged in the heart of a volcano, the Inferno Blade Katana burns with a fiery intensity. Its soul is the unique 'folded red' 1095 steel blade, its pattern swirling like molten rock. The theme of fire continues across the koshirae, from the striking red rayskin that glows like embers beneath the black ito, to the black-to-red speckled lacquer of the saya, reminiscent of cooling lava. This is not a sword of quiet contemplation; it is a raging fire, captured and forged into a battle-ready blade.

Why Choose the Inferno Blade?

• Unique "Folded Red" 1095 Steel Blade: The heart of the inferno, this blade is forged from folded 1095 high-carbon steel and given a special "folded red" finish, creating a stunning visual of red and black patterns that mimics flowing lava.
• A Cohesive "Inferno" Theme: The fiery aesthetic is masterfully executed throughout. The blade's red tones are mirrored in the brilliant red genuine rayskin (samegawa) on the handle and the unique black-to-red speckled lacquer finish on the scabbard (saya).
• Striking Black-on-Red Handle: The handle (tsuka) offers a powerful visual contrast, with a traditional wrap of tight black synthetic-silk ito over the vibrant red rayskin. This not only looks stunning but also provides a secure, comfortable grip.
• Authentic & Battle-Ready Construction: This is a full-tang, functional sword built for performance. From the hand-forged folded steel blade to the double-pegged handle, every element is designed for strength and durability.
