Product detailed description

Handcrafted Golden katana replica, AISI 1065 steel, Nagasa 2.30 Shaku

This forged katana replica of the shinogi-zukuri type is made from high-quality AISI 1065 carbon steel. Like every precise katana sword replica in our offer, this model has undergone a traditional partial hardening process, which creates an authentic Choji-type hamon line. The blade has been hand-finished to achieve optimal properties for sports training and collector's aesthetics. The Sori (curvature) geometry is designed for precise and smooth cuts during martial arts training. The blade exhibits a hardness of approximately 52 HRC at the hasaki, allowing for effective tameshigiri practice on straw mats. The robust Full Tang construction ensures high stability of the entire unit.

The blade tip is of the Chu-Kissaki type with a precisely defined Diamond-Shaped Yokote, flowing smoothly over the boshi. This training katana replica is designed for active martial arts study (Iaido, Kenjutsu) as well as an exceptional decorative piece for collectors. The sword is delivered in a protective cloth bag.
