The Yagyu Katana Shinken is a professionally crafted, battle-ready Japanese sword, forged for martial artists and collectors who value tradition, sharpness, and reliability. This handmade katana features a clay-tempered 1060 high carbon steel blade, created using the Maru Kitae method. The blade includes a bohi to reduce weight and improve balance, and it proudly displays an authentic "Notare" style hamon, visible evidence of the skilled tempering process.

This katana is built with a full tang blade, securely attached to the tsuka using two mekugi (bamboo pins) for maximum safety and durability. The handle is wrapped in purple cotton tsukaito with alternate tsukamaki, offering a traditional aesthetic and a secure grip. Beneath the wrap lies genuine ray skin (Samegawa), and the sword features a robust iron tsuba, giving it both historical authenticity and functional integrity.

The black lacquered wooden saya completes the traditional look, and the sword is delivered with an elegant purple cotton bag. Please note: it is supplied without sageo.

Whether you're training in Tameshigiri, Kenjutsu, or Battōdō, or simply expanding a collection, the Yagyu Katana Shinken offers the balance, sharpness, and craftsmanship expected by serious practitioners. Each sword passes the strict YariNoHanzo quality control, ensuring you receive a katana you can trust.
