Japanese Sword Takenaka Hanbei – Traditional Samurai Sword 1060 High Carbon Steel Forging

Crafted for martial artists and collectors, this traditional Japanese katana delivers exceptional balance, durability, and handling. Unlike cheap zinc-aluminum alloy swords, our blade is hand-forged from 1060 high-carbon steel, ensuring superior strength and flexibility for authentic Iaido and Kenjutsu practice. The blade comes unsharpened by default, with an optional free sharpening service for those who require a live edge.

Fitted with a sleek black lacquered hardwood saya (scabbard), tightly wrapped silk tsuka-ito (handle cord), genuine rayskin (same’), and premium brass fittings, this katana embodies both elegance and functionality. Each sword is meticulously handcrafted, so minor variations in appearance may occur—proof of its artisanal quality. Whether for training, display, or collection, this katana offers outstanding value without compromise.
