Product description

Most ninja swords on the market have a straight blade, inspired by Hollywood films. John Lee based this iaito on historical originals. In the scabbard, it looks just like a katana — but once drawn, the blade is clearly shorter than a katana.
The iaito features a blunt, shortened blade in the shinogi-zukuri style with a fuller (bo-hi). Handforged from 420 stainless steel, the grip is covered with rye hide and wrapped in black cotton in the hineri-maki style. The long tang construction is secured to the grip with two bamboo pins (mekugi), so you can replace the grip completely. The habaki and seppa, between tsuba and blade, are made from brass. The tsuba (hand guard), fuchi (ring on top of the tsuba), menuki (grip decoration), and kashira (pommel) are made from metal.
The wooden scabbard (saya) is black lacquered in the kuroro style and includes an extra-long sageo — the cord used to tie the saya to the belt. The kojiri (butt cap), kurigata (knob for the sageo), and koiguchi (scabbard mouth) are made from buffalo horn.
The iaito measures 89.5 cm in length (108.5 cm including the scabbard), with a 58 cm blade and a 31.5 cm grip. It weighs 1,050 g without the scabbard.
The iaito comes with a textile sleeve, a collector's box, and a certificate
