The Nami Katana Shinken is one of the most distinctive and refined swords in the YariNoHanzo Superior Series, celebrated by both martial artists and collectors for its elegant design, advanced performance, and historical inspiration. Featuring a majestic wave-themed koshirae and a unique blade geometry exclusive to the YariNoHanzo catalog, this katana is built for precision, power, and presence.

Forged by expert craftsmen using Maru Kitae construction and high-grade 1095 high carbon steel, the blade is clay tempered to produce a vivid Gunome Choji hamon—a traditional wave-shaped temper line that symbolizes fluidity and force. The blade is without bohi, enhancing its structural integrity and delivering a heavier, more decisive cut. Finished with a pronounced O-Kissaki, the Nami Katana excels in both cutting and thrusting applications, offering a dynamic edge for Tameshigiri and Battodo.

Built with a full tang and secured by two bamboo mekugi, the sword provides superior strength and balance under rigorous training. The tsuka is wrapped in premium black silk tsukaito, executed in the Hinerimaki style with hishigami inserts to preserve tension and form. Underneath lies genuine Samegawa (ray skin), completing the handle’s traditional construction and enhancing grip reliability.

The sword's koshirae is where artistry meets legacy. The Tsuba, Fuchi, and Kashira feature an intricate Nami (wave) motif, symbolizing both serenity and unstoppable power—perfectly aligned with the katana’s identity. These fittings are modeled after antique originals, making the Nami Katana a functional weapon and a collectible heirloom.

The black lacquered saya is fitted with real buffalo horn koiguchi, kojiri, and kurikata, offering resilience and sophistication. Supplied without sageo, the sword is delivered with an elegant burgundy cotton bag for protection and presentation.

Each Nami Katana Shinken undergoes strict quality control by YariNoHanzo, ensuring unmatched precision, durability, and authenticity. Whether you are a martial artist in search of a perfectly balanced cutting sword or a discerning collector of functional samurai weapons, the Nami Katana delivers top-level performance and refined beauty in one remarkable blade.
