Questions & Answers
What is a katana?
A katana is a traditional Japanese samurai sword known for its curved, single-edged blade, visible hamon (temper line), and exceptional balance. Built with a full-tang construction and a wrapped tsuka (handle) with a protective tsuba (guard), a katana is hand-forged for cutting performance and durability. Collectors value its craftsmanship and history; practitioners value its speed, edge retention, and control.
How long is a katana?
Most katanas measure about 100–105 cm (39–41 in) overall. The blade (nagasa) is typically 70–73 cm (27–29 in), with a handle (tsuka) around 26–28 cm (10–11 in). Exact dimensions vary by model and customization. Each product page lists precise specs.
Are your katanas sharp and battle-ready?
Yes—every katana we sell is razor-sharp and hand-honed by a master. These are functional, full-tang swords suitable for cutting practice (e.g., tatami mats) as well as display. Always handle responsibly and follow local laws and training best practices.
Do you ship worldwide?
We deliver worldwide. However, please check your country’s purchase and import rules for swords before ordering. Regulations can change, and while we strive to serve as many countries as possible, we can’t verify every jurisdiction at all times and may adjust our shipping destinations accordingly. Customs duties or taxes (if any) are the buyer’s responsibility.
How much does a katana cost?
Pricing depends on steel type (e.g., T10, 1095, Damascus), heat treatment and hamon, hand-polish, fittings (iron/copper), and overall craftsmanship. As a guide, entry-level functional katanas start around a few hundred dollars; mid-range, hand-forged pieces are typically mid-hundreds; master-crafted or highly customized models can be higher. Check our collection pages for current pricing and promotions.
Is the katana full-tang?
Yes. Our katanas use a full-tang (nakago) that runs the length of the handle and is secured with bamboo mekugi pins. This construction maximizes strength, balance, and safety under use.
How long does delivery take?
Shipping is free, and delivery typically takes around 10 days. You’ll receive a tracking number once your order ships. Processing times and customs clearance can add a little extra time depending on your location.
