Manganese steel is generally chosen for its toughness and resilience. Here, the blade carries a dark blue ground with a broad, wave-shaped surface pattern, while the polished edge remains bright against it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe mounting stays in the same register: a blue-wrapped handle, black fittings, a gold-tone habaki, and a black lacquered saya brushed with blue and silver marks. The saya repeats the blade’s movement without copying it exactly, giving the piece a darker, more graphic presentation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt wakizashi scale, Black Ice is compact but visually assertive. The dark scabbard and blue handle keep the color story intact when the blade is sheathed, while the exposed blade reveals the full contrast between its blue surface and bright edge.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eDetails\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlade: manganese steel with a deep blue finish\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlade pattern: broad blue wave-shaped surface design; not described as a traditional hamon\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConstruction: full tang\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEdge options: sharpened or unsharpened\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHandle: blue wrap with matching blue sageo\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSaya: black lacquered solid wood with blue-and-silver brushed decoration\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFittings: dark zinc alloy fittings with a gold-tone habaki\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eGeneral Specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eFeature\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eThis piece\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eType\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWakizashi\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBlade steel\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eManganese steel\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBlade finish\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDeep blue finish with wave-shaped surface pattern\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eConstruction\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFull tang\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSaya\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBlack lacquered solid wood with blue-and-silver decoration\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFittings\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDark zinc alloy set with gold-tone habaki\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHandle\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBlue wrap with matching blue sageo\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eEdge options\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSharpened \/ Unsharpened\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eDimensions \u0026amp; Weight\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eMeasurement\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eMetric\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eImperial\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOverall length\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e55 cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e21.7 in\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBlade length\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e33 cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e13.0 in\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHandle length\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e17 cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e6.7 in\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBlade width\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e3.2 cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1.26 in\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBlade thickness\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e0.6 cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e0.24 in\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eApprox. 700 g\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eApprox. 1.54 lb\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Katana Sword Shop – IronPoet","offers":[{"title":"Sharpened","offer_id":47153116872878,"sku":"Y-5124","price":149.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Unsharpened","offer_id":48120086659246,"sku":"Y-5124-U","price":149.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0566\/2297\/3102\/files\/SeiryunoNamikageWakizashi4_8fa67ac4-73dc-4286-b4a4-37fb3fad590b.jpg?v=1763143110","url":"https:\/\/ironpoet.com\/products\/black-ice-wakizashi","provider":"Katana Sword Shop – IronPoet","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
