Tanjiro Kamado wields a black Nichirin blade, but the symbolism of such a sword is unknown. Black blades are seen as a rarity, as demon slayers who wield them are doomed to die young. No wielder of a black sword has ever become a Hashira, either. However, this is all superstition.
When Tanjiro first got his Nichirin Sword on Demon Slayer, and it changed color to match the personality of its user like all Nichirin weapons do, many fans were surprised that Tanjiro's katana turned black.
Moreover, any Nichirin sword can become bright red regardless of the blade's original color. However, the blade can only stay bright red for a certain amount of time before returning to normal.
Black. Toho Co., Ltd. Black is the most mysterious color of all the blades, and is held by the main character, Tanjiro. It is a rare blade and represents the sun; it also holds a theory that the demon slayers who own this sword are not to live a long life.
The black blade represents the Sun and is surrounded by prejudice and misconceptions, as historically every demon slayer who held it lived a short life. This could mean that Tanjirou is destined to break the pattern and set a new legend for black Nichirin blades in the Demon Slayer universe.
Gyomei's Gray Flail and Axe
Undoubtedly the strongest of all of the Hashira in terms of pure strength and power, Gyomei uses weapons that are also very unique. While they are still considered Nichirin blades for all intents and purposes, Gyomei's weapons are a flail and an axe.
The black color may be a testament to Tanjiro's incredible will, or it could be a sign that he is destined for greatness. Despite the significant personal meaning behind the color of Nichirin blades, they all are capable of killing demons so at least Tanjiro is not disadvantaged due to his sword's unusual shade.

1/11 The Black Blade Represents The Sun
Tanjiro Kamado wields a black Nichirin blade, but the symbolism of such a sword is unknown. Black blades are seen as a rarity, as demon slayers who wield them are doomed to die young. No wielder of a black sword has ever become a Hashira, either.
But if we are talking about the human form, then it's a big fat NO, because Tanjiro has just mastered the Sun Breathing whereas Yoriichi is the inventor of it, also he's way more powerful and holds an unfathomable battle intellect, larger than any Demon Slayer in history, so in conclusion, no one is remotely close to ...

Red often means intensity, and in Demon Slayer this is no different. The red sword represents Flame and Kyojuro Rengoku's excentric and expansive personality translates that.
This color was first discovered by Yoriichi Tsugikuni when he became a Demon Slayer due to his Sun Breathing. In fact, it is a category of Yoriichi's gifted powers and abilities, which is meant to hamper the regeneration of Demons.
Tanjiro certainly did a lot of good with his Water Breathing techniques, but his ability to use Sun Breathing both gives him an edge in battle and allows him to stand out among the incredibly powerful Hashira he fights alongside.
The only thing he's weak to is the sun. That is why he turned other humans into demons and spread his blood so that one of them might find a solution against the sunlight, so he can become truly perfect.
