Miyamoto Musashi needs no further introduction as the master swordsman
and a founder of his original Niten Ichiryu school in early Edo era. His
remarkable record shows that he was undefeated in over 60 years of sword
duels, including the match with Sasaki Kojiro at the Ganryu islands. Kazusanosuke
Kaneshige sword is said to be his favorite and this Musashi Koshirae was
designed and made according to it. The cotton Tsuka is securely wrapped
over the genuine sharkskin. A set of silver-plated Fuchigane, Tsukagashira,
Kurigata and Saya O-jiri is nicely featured.
Weighes approximately 880 gram without the Saya.
Each Iaito sword from Nishijin Sword features a flex resistant and well-balanced
blade made of zinc/belylium alloy, which, as the result, can provides the
breathtaking feeling as much as you could get with the Shinken practice.
Proudly hand-crafted by Japanese swordsmiths in Japan. Because each of
your order is made to order, please allow three to four weeks for the production.
Nishijin Sword Price: $864.00
