Iaito Dull Katana

1060 high carbon steel encapsulates both a high carbon as well as a high manganese content, which promote a hard, reliable cutting edge, along with the extremely desirable blade elasticity & resilience. This produces a hard, reliable and sharp cutting edge and importantly, you can be sure the blade and the edge will survive even the most violent combat or training practices. 

The white lacquered hardwood scabbard and quality sword fittings, complement the overall purple Katana color scheme nicely. And the hardwood, wrapped with synthetic leather & quality polyester cord form a traditional sword aesthetic and a very effective Japanese Samurai handle grip. 

This 1060 Katana practice sword is a simple and clean work of combative art. It’s collectable, a pleasure to own and a fantastic Japanese training sword or battle ready weapon to use. Choose from a blunt edge Iaito sword or sharp Katana edge options.
