Performance Katana Swords - SHINKEN

The Performance Katana line is a premium collection born from the renowned YariNoHanzo Katana range, meticulously designed to offer more at a highly competitive price. Our goal was to create a shinken that stands up to the standards of the most famous Japanese swords, combining class, durability, lightness, balance, aesthetic elegance, and, most importantly, safety for intense and demanding training sessions.

We’ve dedicated ourselves to studying each model in great detail to provide a comprehensive range of shinken, tailored to fit every practitioner’s preferences and needs. Whether you're training for Iaido competitions or refining your cutting technique, our Performance Katana line is built to meet the highest standards. The unique geometry of the blades, along with the carefully crafted Bohi, distinguishes our swords from others on the market. Additionally, every model produces a strong, resonating sound during Tachikaze (cutting the air), a feature that significantly enhances the practice of tameshigiri (cutting tests) and provides a more immersive training experience.

Our shinken swords feature alternating Tsukamaki wraps, and all models incorporate Hishigami (paper inserts) to guarantee a secure, lasting grip even during daily, intense use. These wraps are not only visually striking but also ensure that the sword remains stable and functional throughout rigorous practice sessions. We take great care in the assembly process, ensuring that all parts of the Koshirae (mounting) are tightly fitted and secure, eliminating any potential play or looseness that could affect your practice.

The Performance Katana from YariNoHanzo is more than just a training sword – it’s a lifelong companion for your martial arts journey. Whether you're practicing cutting tests, improving your technique with a shinken (real combat sword), or mastering the art of tameshigiri, our swords are designed to provide the durability, sharpness, and aesthetic quality you need for professional-level training.

With the Performance Katana line, you’re not just investing in a sword, you’re investing in a tradition of excellence and precision. Built to last, our swords provide unparalleled performance for years to come, making them an essential tool for serious martial artists, collectors, and enthusiasts.
