Musashi Kumamoto Shinken Katana | Handmade Battle-Ready Sword for Tameshigiri and Martial Arts
The Musashi Kumamoto Shinken Katana is a fully functional, razor-sharp Japanese sword forged for high-performance cutting practice and advanced martial arts training. Designed for tameshigiri, this katana delivers smooth, precise cuts through tatami omote and bamboo, while maintaining the traditional aesthetics and construction of a true samurai sword.
The blade is made from AISI 1060 high-carbon steel, using the Maru Kitae forging method and clay-tempered to produce a stunning and authentic "midare" style real Hamon. With a Bohi along the blade, it’s light enough for swift movements while retaining powerful cutting ability. The blade is full tang and secured with two Mekugi (bamboo pegs), ensuring stability and strength during heavy use.
The tsuka features premium black Tsukagawa leather, wrapped in a traditional alternate Tsukamaki style with Hishigami for enhanced grip durability. Beneath the wrap lies authentic white Samegawa ray skin, providing both function and style. The katana is fitted with a Musashi-style iron Tsuba, offering reliable protection and balance.
Its brown lacquered wooden saya complements the sword’s traditional look, while the included Shigeuchi Sageo ensures secure handling and display. Each sword comes with a purple cotton sword bag, reflecting Japanese elegance and practicality.
Tested and approved through YariNoHanzo’s strict quality control process, the Musashi Kumamoto Shinken Katana is ideal for both training and collection—an exceptional weapon for any serious practitioner.
