Having a real katana is something truly exhilarating

The katana is the most iconic, influential, and popular type of Japanese sword (nihoton) in modern times, among all traditional Japanese blades.

Historically, the katana could only be worn by samurai and feudal lords. Beyond its role as a weapon, a masterfully crafted katana served as a symbol of its bearer’s identity, honor, and status.

Explore our samurai sword series and add a genuine handcrafted katana to your collection. From traditional styles that honor centuries of craftsmanship to modern designs infused with innovation, our swords are built for both function and beauty. Make your choice, express your unique spirit and get ready to train like a rōnin.

Components of a Katana

Our katana swords consist of two main parts: the blade (katana-to) and the mountings (koshirae).

Katana blade. All of our katanas are full-tang. The blade of a katana refers strictly to the sharpened edge and the tang (nakago) hidden within the handle, excluding all other fittings.

Koshirae. The koshirae is the complete set of fittings for a Japanese sword, including the saya (scabbard), tsuba (guard), tsuka (handle), sageo (cord), fuchi (collar), kashira (pommel), and more. A single blade can be paired with different koshirae, or even customized. We offer hundreds of swords already matched with koshirae, available in a wide variety of styles — from simple and refined, to ornate, traditional, or modern designs.

Katana collections of tradition and mastery

Katana buying guide

Whether for practice, collection, or display, find the katana that resonates with your spirit.

What Is a Katana?

The katana originated in ancient Japan.

What we commonly refer to as "katana" today is actually a specific type of Japanese sword — professionally known as the uchigatana.

The uchigatana is the most iconic style, featured in countless movies, anime, and historical depictions.

However, Japan’s sword-making tradition includes many types of blades, such as the tachi, wakizashi, and tanto.

Katanas are characterized by their natural curvature, which is not manually shaped, but instead formed naturally during clay tempering — a traditional Japanese heat-treatment method.

During quenching, the edge and spine cool at different rates, causing the blade to curve and producing a beautiful hamon (temper line).

The hamon is an essential element when appreciating the beauty of a traditional katana.

Anatomy of a Katana

A complete katana consists of the blade (nagasa) and the fittings (koshirae).

The fittings include components such as the handle (tsuka), scabbard (saya), and guard (tsuba).

One unique feature of the katana is that the blade and the fittings can be separated and customized.

You can match a blade with different fittings according to your aesthetic preferences, creating a katana that is uniquely yours.

  • Clay-Tempered Katana: Not defined by a specific steel type, but by a traditional Japanese forging technique that enhances performance and produces a distinctive hamon. Different tempering styles create different hamon patterns, each with its own character and beauty.

Each katana in our collection is crafted with respect for tradition, functionality, and art — whether you seek a piece for practice, collection, or display, you'll find a blade that resonates with your spirit.
