Our katana is offered with a more economical leather grip as a base. Our Tsuka-ito (traditional cord wrap) grip is offered over either leather or a more historically accurate ray skin interior. Our blade is made in the Shobu-Zukuri style where the cutting edge curves smoothly into the point. At 28 inches, the blade reaches the more commonly used upper historical length and our 10 inch grip leaves more than enough room for two-handed use. It is balanced for ease of either single or two handed technique.
