Design a completely unique tsuba crafted specifically for your katana.
Each tsuba is engraved in solid brass with deep 3D relief engraving for a detailed and exclusive result.
Your design can include:
- Your own motifs and illustrations
- Symbols or logos
- Japanese-inspired themes
- Mythological creatures
- Text or signatures
- Completely original concepts
You can design both sides of the tsuba individually, making it possible to create two completely unique designs on the same tsuba.
How the Process Works
After placing your order, you send reference images, sketches, ideas, or inspiration for the design you want.
This is a creative process between you and Ghost Blades:
- You send inspiration material
- Ghost Blades creates and adapts the design for 3D engraving
- Adjustments and changes are discussed together
- Engraving begins only once the design is approved
Since each design must be manually prepared and converted into an accurate 3D depth map for engraving, the process will usually involve some back-and-forth communication.
The clearer and better the reference material you send, the better the final result can be.

Production time varies depending on the complexity of the design and the revision process.
