Kumori Katana

This is a Thaitsuki sword and we believe in quality over quantity. Thaitsuki Nihonto swords are hand-made, fully functional, and "battle ready" katanas. They are best suited for practice in all sword arts, completion cutting, and collecting. The Japanese Katanas, hand-made by Thaitsuki Nihonto, are of the highest quality, traditionally made and perfected for over 400 years. Thaitsuki Nihonto has been producing Japanese swords for professional collectors and practitioners of Iaido, Iaijutsu, and Kenjutsu for over 400 years !

The Kumori Japanese Katana is specially handmade and forged from special high carbon Japanese steel making it an extremely sharp, strong and flexible blade with bo-hi (groove).

The tsuka (handle) is covered in same' (ray skin) and the Tsuka Ito (handle wrap) is 100% Japanese silk. The Koshirae (sword mounting/fittings) are handmade from 99% silver.

The Kumori Japanese Katana can be completely disassembled for full maintenance.
