Kikuchi Katana – Precision and Balance for Iaido Practice

The Kikuchi Katana is a finely crafted iaito designed for practitioners who seek precision, smooth handling, and refined balance. Every detail has been carefully developed to create a sword that feels stable, responsive, and comfortable in motion, making it an excellent choice for both enthusiasts and martial artists dedicated to technical training.

Designed for Smooth Handling and Technical Practice

Crafted from AISI 1060 high-carbon steel, the blade features a refined Gunome Choji hamon and a Bohi (fuller), which enhances balance and produces a distinctive Tachikaze sound during each swing. These characteristics make the Kikuchi Katana especially suitable for Iaido practice, where precision, rhythm, and control are essential.

Traditional Craftsmanship Meets Modern Precision

- Superior Grip and Stability – The tsuka (handle) is wrapped in premium blue silk tsukaito over genuine samegawa (ray skin), offering a secure and comfortable grip during regular training.

- Authentic Koshirae with High-Quality Materials – The elegant Mokko-style tsuba, paired with a buffalo horn kashira, ensures durability and refined traditional aesthetics.

- Premium Lacquered Saya – The black Han Sendan Kuroro lacquered wooden saya provides a sleek, polished finish while protecting the blade when not in use.

- Perfectly Balanced for Technical Accuracy – The Kikuchi Katana is designed to provide smooth handling, excellent weight distribution, and controlled movement, making it ideal for kata and technical practice.

- Sageo is not included, allowing for full customization based on the user’s preferences.
