Product Description Finally a Rurouni Kenshin sword that has been constructed for a functional and practical use. The Rurouni Kenshin Full Tang Samurai Katana Sword has been constructed from one fine piece of carbon steel and buffed to a low polish finish. A wide Shinogi allows for actual use and combat application and is decorated with an even deep Hi running the length of the blade, and authentic Hamon along the edge. Sharpened to a razor sharp edge this sword should not be used by children and caution is highly recommended. The Tsuka has been created with traditional Samurai components and uses authentic Same with a real Ido wrapped cloth handle. Accented with antiqued Fuchi and Kashira the Full Tang Kenshin will appear wonderful in your katana collection. Don't pick a decorative sword for your possible Rurouni Kenshin cosplay costume, pick one that could be used by Kenshin himself. The sword has been created under the specifications of the swords appearing in a vast amount of Rurouni Kenshin/Samurai X anime series' and mangas. Measurements: 40 3/4 inches overall closed, 39 1/4 inches overall open, 27 1/2 inch blade length. 19/64 inch Blade Thickness, 3 3/4 x 3 inch blade thickness. Included with the Full Tang Rurouni Kenshin Samurai Katana is a black cotton sword bag and wooden transportation scabbard.

Full Tang Rurouni Kenshin Sword Sharp Reverse Blade Excellent!!!

might as well put my 2 cents in December 25, 2008 J. H. Lee Well as most people who reviewed this have posted strong opinions and i have replied to some i thought i might as well put my 2 cents in. This is a very good DECORATIVE sword. It is NOT made for actual practical use and anyone who thinks that are either very enthusiastic about their new sword or just plain childish. It was made to look nice and it does just that so don't expect anymore if you are buying this to swing it around outside and take a whack at a pole or something then just hit the little "x" button on the top of your window and dont buy it cause you will be sadly disappointed when you hurt yourself. But after this and you are still strongly compelled to buy it then go right ahead its your money.
the blacksmith is right you idiot November 13, 2008 Patrick Tsushima (San Diego, CA USA) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
How are you gonna go and tell someone that actually knows how to forge that they're wrong, and yes I am a practitioner of the sword as well and anyone who is and not retarded knows that a "hi" or actually "bo-hi" as it is properly termed is merely to lighten the blade, all that blood groove so the blade doesn't get stuck is a bunch of BS, just like the blacksmith said. For one thing in techniqiue you wouldn't run someone through all the way to the tsuba(guard) you just thrust and at most put the top six inches or so in the person.(not that I have ever done that but I am not one to study watered down martial arts so I like it how it really is.) If you ever see real katanas(ie japanese made from a long time ago) especially the ones from eras where Japan was constantly at war, there is never a bo hi, a bo hi causes a sword to essentially not have as powerful a cut. Anyone who has even touched iaido or batto knows this, for people who just go around stabbing random stuff and has never even performed a legitimate tameshigiri(practice cutting)with the bamboo roll doesn't know a damn thing. Plus I guarantee you, any katana that is even remotely usable will cost at the very least two hundred to three hundred dollars and that is a great deal ! Cheness produce some nice ones, and hanwei has some decent ones in the lower end but very very nice ones in the upper end. I am pretty sure this blade is just surface hardened and not thorough hardened.(meaning it is not fully tempered inside and will break) And as far as full tang goes that can mean alot of different things, I have an old hanwei katana that snapped on me during a cut one day after a few years of training with it, so I dissaembled it the handle and was comparing the tang from the hanwei katana and a cheness katana the hanwei was almost half the thickness, both sowrds are considered "full tang" I'm pretty sure this blade would snap in a second if you really tried to strike something. And that means your gonna have ten or so inches of sharpened steel blade flying up at you so hopefully you luck out like me and it doesn't hit you in the face. I am giving this four stars for a nice decoration sword that can be swung around here and there but never would I consider this suitable for practice kata and absolutely never would i strike something with this, from the way it looks i could probably cut or break cut this sword in two with one of my better katanas. Just be careful not to hurt yourself and don't knock people with way more experience than you.(ie talkin crap to the blacksmith, that guy is far closer to the essence of these things than you ever will be and your ignorance and big mouth just makes you all the more stupid sounding.
very good completely accurate September 21, 2008 T. Weiler (usa) Complete accuracey i was actualy watching some kenshin episodes and i noticed a faint HI on the right side of his sword very nice and sturdy too strong as heck, sharp enough to cut a hair. awsome buy for the price.
Good Buy August 29, 2008 Daniel Beer Great sword and fast shipping. Haven't used it but seems very sturdy. Perfect sword to buy if you like Rurouni Kenshin.
