UNITED CUTLERY HONSHU-BOSHIN

The Honshu Boshin® Katana fuses tradition and innovation to yield a masterwork of modern sword design. True to the legendary katana’s roots, the Boshin® boasts a 30 3/8” 1060 high carbon steel blade that’s unrivaled in sharpness and strength. But this is no ordinary Katana. Trading traditional trappings for chic contemporary style, the cutting edge Boshin® is an undeniably modern weapon. Textured TPR shrouds the handle for an ergonomic no-slip grip you can’t get from conventional ray skin and cord. The handle is crowned with an oversized polished steel pommel, and the guard snubs fanciful ornamentation in favor of a practical pointed ellipse design. In keeping with the Boshin’s® clean, functional motif, the sleek wooden sheath is largely unembellished, save the genuine leather cord. Even among more expensive swords, the remarkably affordable Honshu Boshin® Katana shines brighter than the rest. Wielding it is almost Zen-like – you just have to experience it for yourself!
