Reach and Grace — The Naginata Tradition

The naginata holds a unique place in Japanese sword history as both a devastating field instrument and a disciplined art form still practiced today. Its curved blade mounted on a long wooden shaft provided reach advantage and versatile cutting angles that shorter swords could not match.

Our naginata collection features hand-forged blades in high carbon steel, mounted on traditional wooden shafts with secure tang construction. The curved blade profile echoes the katana but with different proportions optimized for the naginata’s extended reach.

A naginata makes a dramatic centerpiece in any Japanese blade collection. Display alongside a Katana, Wakizashi, and Japanese Tanto for a comprehensive collection spanning the full range of Japanese blade types.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a naginata?

How large is a typical naginata?
A naginata typically has a blade length of 30 to 60 centimeters mounted on a shaft of 120 to 180 centimeters, creating an overall length of 150 to 240 centimeters. The substantial size makes the naginata an impressive display piece.
How should I display a naginata?
Due to their length, naginata are typically displayed vertically against a wall using bracket mounts, or horizontally on a long wall-mounted rack. The extended length requires planning for adequate wall or floor space.
Is the naginata still practiced as an art form?

Overall good weapon nice cutting and feel but something wrong with the glue job inside the saya as it would keep getting on the blade no matter how many times said saya cleaned it and washed it out with soap and water until I cut it in half and removed it and did my own glue job which seemed to fix that but yea cause of that I can’t give it a 5 star I’m sure you’d understand

1060 Carbon Steel Japanese Naginata - Black Hardwood Saya, Full Tang, Hand Forged Polearm 1060 Carbon Steel Japanese Naginata - Black Hardwood Saya, Full Tang, Hand Forged Polearm
Michael E Glass Indiana, United States

The swords arrived 7-8 days after they were shipped. I had received an email confirming the order when I placed it, however I did not receive an email when it shipped, so I didn't know to look for them. They may have been outside a day before I noticed the boxes. With that said the boxes arrived in good shape with no obvious shipping damage. I'm not the biggest fan of the all styrofoam containers, due to it being a little messy when opening the packaging, but I can't deny it did an excellent job in protecting the swords as they arrived in perfect condition. I haven't had a chance to cut any water bottles yet, but all of the swords seem reasonably sharp. Everything seems well built with no obvious defects that I can tell at this time.

My first Naganata. I'm hooked. The most solid and we'll balanced sword I have purchased yet. The wooden Saya is a thing of beauty. The entire sword is gorgeous from top to bottom. It came perfect out of the box. Sharp, no rattles, fits perfectly in the saya. It will be my main blade to practise with going forward. Great job!
