There is a lot of thoughtful detail to appreciate on this 41” Zetsurin Samurai Sword. The 27” blade has been handmade from high carbon steel and is razor sharp. To offer balance, it has been given a blood groove down its length. To ensure a controlled and comfortable grip, nylon tightly wraps the hilt while dual bamboo pegs help to secure the blade in the handle. Included is a beautiful hardwood scabbard that’s quite unique all on its own, as it has been fitted with a removable throwing knife. The longer you look at it, the more you will notice and appreciate a two-tone painted design throughout. A black storage and carry bag has been generously included.
