Takeda Shingen Custom Katana | Made-to-Order Handmade Sword Honoring a Legendary Rivalry

The Takeda Shingen Katana Limited Edition is a custom-crafted tribute to one of Japan’s greatest daimyo of the Sengoku Jidai—Takeda Shingen. His tactical brilliance and historical rivalry with the equally formidable Uesugi Kenshin at battles like Kawanakajima are legendary, and this sword captures the spirit of that era with precision and honor.

This is not a production-line sword—it is a fully handmade, made-to-order katana, requiring 150 to 180 days of preparation by master artisans. Every detail reflects the utmost care, tradition, and dedication to the craft.

Forged from 1095 high-carbon steel using the Maru Kitae method, the blade is clay-tempered to showcase a vivid Gunome Choji-style real Hamon. A Bohi provides reduced weight and enhanced movement, while the full-tang construction, secured by two Mekugi (bamboo pins), ensures strength and structural integrity during martial practice.

The tsuka is wrapped in blue cotton Tsukaito using the Katate Maki method and reinforced with Hishigami inserts over authentic Samegawa ray skin, delivering both grip reliability and historical authenticity.

The sword is housed in a deep red lacquered saya, with Koiguchi, Kojiri, and Kurikata made from real buffalo horn, ensuring both elegance and durability. Though supplied without sageo, it comes with a refined purple cotton bag, reflecting traditional Japanese aesthetics.

This katana is meticulously balanced for Iaido, Kendo, and Kenjutsu and is suitable for both dedicated beginners and advanced practitioners. Every piece passes the YariNoHanzo quality control, guaranteeing the highest standard of performance and artistry.

More than a sword, this is a personal legacy—crafted for martial artists who value tradition, honor, and the enduring rivalry of Takeda Shingen and Uesugi Kenshin.
