Iaito Training Sword 1060 Carbon Steel Sword Dragon Theme Fittings

Iaito swords serve as a safe version of the sharp and deadly Japanese Katana sword, making them ideal for both beginner and veteran samurai sword enthusiasts. This particular Iaito sword operates as a direct replica of a real Katana, featuring an unsharpened edge that assures safe training. Crafted from 1060 high carbon steel, this sword displays a dark/red theme accentuated by the motif of the Japanese Dragon; it's a motif reminiscent of good fortune to any trainee.

The blade of this sword is double-pegged, contributing to its stability, and it has been polished through a 12-step process to attain a mirror-like shine. This sword has undergone oil quench and differential hardening to ensure proper strength and flexibility. Its fittings, carved out of alloy and brass, feature a bohi (groove), which produces the tachikaze (sound of slashing) during training.

The handle of this sword features traditionally wrapped silk tsuka-maki over rayskin, while the scabbard is adorned glossily. Though balanced ideally for Iaido training, it can also be sharpened for light-cutting tests with assurance on safety. As a bonus, it comes with a free sword bag for easy transport.
