Material: Lacquered Wooden Saya Sheath With Horn Kurigata Koiguchi Koijiri. The saya of a koshirae are normally manufactured from very lightweight wood, with a coat of lacquer on the exterior. The wood is light enough that great care must be taken when drawing the sword; incorrect form may result in the blade of the sword slicing through the saya and severing one or more fingers.
