Product information "Yasukuni Captains Gunto"

This sword replicates the Gunto of a high-ranking Japanese army officer of the Pre-WWII and WWII era. These swords were made from 1933 onwards by a group of highly-skilled sword smiths at the Yasukuni Shrine in Tokyo and are known collectively as the Yasukuni swords.

Only 8000 of these swords were made and many were destroyed, so in recent years they have become highly collectable. Hanwei is producing these very accurate replicas for collectors unable to afford or obtain originals.

The sword features a forged blade of high carbon 1095 steel. Hand-woven pure silk Sageo with accurate Captain-rank coloration.

Weight: approx. 1192 g
Overall Length: approx. 95 cm
Blade Length: approx. 71.5 cm

Golden Flower Wakizashi

The Golden Flower Wakizashi features an extraordinarily beautiful tsuba which certainly has been made by a grand master in the 18th century. As these did not sign their work in contrary to the blade smiths, the creator is not known by name. The tsuba has been intricately decorated with golden cherry blossoms (sakura). The cherry blossom is one of the most important symbols in Japanese culture. It stands for beauty, departure and the transience of life. The wakizashi has a handforged blade made of carbon steel with a fine hamon and has been tempered traditionally. In addition, the steel of the blade has been folded 12 times, that means about 8000 layers have been created which give the sword a beautiful damascus pattern. The sharp blade features a hi (fuller) to reduce the total weight. The handle (tsuka) is made of wood, has been coated with real fish skin and features two menukis. In addition it has been traditionally wrapped in black cotton. The tang is especially long and fixed with two bamboo pegs (mekugi). The scabbard (saya) is made of wood and the blade collar (habaki) is made of brass. This wakizashi has been made according to original museum exhibitions. The sword comes with a certificate of origin, wrapped in cloth and packed in a high-quality wooden box. All measures are subject to estimation. Details: Blade length to tsuba: 54,5 cm Total length without scabbard: 77 cm Blade´s curvature (sori): 15 mm Handle length: 22 cm Weight without scabbard: 800 g Weight with scabbard: 1000 g
