Kenshin Katana

The Kenshin Samurai Sword is a starter katana highlighted with the respected Daimyo Uesugi Kenshin theme. This beginners sword boasts upgraded detailed fittings over other starter swords with more attention put to weight and balance. This beginner piece has a tempered high carbon steel blade, double pinned cotton wrapped handle through a traditional length tang with real ray skin. With budget in mind this katana uses a 1045 high carbon steel which is a little softer than the higher end katana but is still suitable for soft targets like tatami and “pool noodles”. Includes storage bag.
