This handmade Japanese dragon katana is an impressively low-cost and affordable sword. Luckily it’s traditionally hand forged and thus exempt from the ban on swords over 50cm with curved blades. Undeniably a factor when choosing a sword. It’s well-balanced, sharp, and ready to use. You’ll find it excellent in hand and a dream to use. We always recommend milk cartons filled with water for an easy way to start test cutting. Of course, that’s at your own risk. Still, it’s a lot of fun!

The awesome Japanese sword blade
This Japanese dragon katana comes with a 72cm medium carbon steel blade. The sword measures 102cm overall with a 7.2mm thick spine. Notably, this means it’ll reduce bending if your swing isn’t perfect. The blade includes a fuller or ‘bo-hi’ in Japanese that will whistle when swung with perfect alignment. You’ll find that the wire-brushed faux hamon adds to the authentic appearance of this Japanese sword. If you’re looking for an impressive display item, that doubles as a functional sword – this is the piece for you.
