Yellow Katana

Secure Your Piece of Samurai History

Whether you're adding to a collection or looking for a functional training sword, owning a katana is a way to connect with the legacy of the samurai. Explore our collection today and bring home a piece of Japanese swordsmanship with one of our expertly crafted katana swords.

The katana is more than just a sword; it represents the spirit of the samurai. Known for its distinctive curved blade, single edge, and long grip for two-handed use, the katana sword has been used by Japanese warriors since the 12th century. Often carried as part of a pair with the shorter wakizashi sword, this duo, known as daisho, symbolized the power and prestige of the samurai.

Our collection honors this tradition by offering real katanas made from premium materials such as 1060 and 1095 high carbon steel, as well as traditional tamahagane steel. Each katana is designed to reflect the intricate craftsmanship passed down through generations of master swordsmiths.

Whether you're looking for a battle-ready katana for practice in Kenjutsu or Iaido, or a decorative piece for your collection, we have a wide variety of options. Our katanas can be ordered hand sharpened to a razor edge or left unsharpened for display purposes.

Types of Japanese Swords

In addition to katanas, we offer a range of other traditional Japanese swords, including:

• Wakizashi: A shorter sword traditionally paired with the katana to form the daisho.
• Tanto: A small, versatile blade often used for close combat or utility purposes.
• Ninjato: The ninjato is the same as the katana in every aspect, but with a straight blade.
• Odachi: A long sword used by foot soldiers during the feudal era.
• Tachi: A precursor to the katana, designed for use on horseback.
• Naginata: The naginata can be more of a spear than a sword, with very long handles.
• Shirasaya: The shirasaya has a wood handle, making it better for preservation when not in use.

Each of these swords is a testament to the enduring art of Japanese swordsmithing.
