The Fuji Katana Shinken is a pinnacle creation in the YariNoHanzo Superior Series — a sword that seamlessly merges authentic historical craftsmanship, elite functionality, and visual mastery. Its name and design pay tribute to Mount Fuji, a symbol of perfection, resilience, and Japanese tradition. Revered by martial artists and collectors alike, the Fuji Katana is a sword many have tried to imitate — but none have succeeded in replicating its quality, weight, or elegance.

This katana is distinguished by a koshirae faithfully reproduced from various pieces displayed in renowned Japanese museums, preserving the legacy of traditional samurai arms while ensuring every element supports modern martial training.

At its core is a blade forged with the advanced Honsanmai Kitae construction, combining three types of high carbon steel: 1045, 1060, and 1095. This triple-layer lamination offers outstanding cutting power, edge retention, and flexibility. The blade is clay tempered, resulting in a genuine Gunome Choji hamon — a wave-like pattern revered by collectors and masters alike. The inclusion of a bohi (groove) helps reduce overall weight and delivers that unmistakable tachikaze feedback sound during movement.

The sword is fully sharpened, battle-ready, and built to handle advanced practice in Iaido, Kendo kata, and Kenjutsu. The full tang construction, secured with two mekugi (bamboo pins), ensures unwavering strength and safety.

Its handle is wrapped with high-quality Italian leather Tsukagawa, in Hinerimaki style, reinforced with hishigami inserts and layered over real black Samegawa (ray skin). This ensures lasting structure, grip, and elegance — even under intensive training.

The black lacquered saya is handcrafted from hardwood and features buffalo horn fittings at the koiguchi, kojiri, and kurikata — offering resilience and timeless aesthetics. This sword is supplied without sageo, giving practitioners the freedom to customize the mount to their dojo or ryu tradition. A burgundy cotton bag is included for safe transport and refined presentation.

As with every sword in the Superior Series, the Fuji Katana undergoes rigorous YariNoHanzo quality control, guaranteeing each piece meets our elite performance and finishing standards. It is a katana of depth, purpose, and prestige — exclusive to YariNoHanzo and inimitable in its category.
