Product Details

The blade on this ninjato is forged from manganese steel and finished with a pronounced hammered texture running along the flat, creating a rugged, hand-worked surface that catches light differently at every angle. A hand-finished hamon line traces the edge in a natural wave pattern, giving the chrome-polished blade visual depth that distinguishes it from mass-produced alternatives. The straight ninjato profile measures 41 inches overall and weighs 3 lbs, offering a substantial presence without feeling unwieldy in hand or on a display stand.

The full tang construction extends through the entire length of the tsuka, ensuring the handle and blade move as one unit. The tsuka itself is wrapped in a traditional diamond-pattern cord in brown, layered over a black ray-skin (same) underlayer. Small gold menuki accent pieces are visible beneath the wrap, adding a refined metallic note to the warm earth-tone grip.

A black round plain iron tsuba marks the transition from grip to blade with quiet authority. Its unadorned circular form is a deliberate design choice - keeping the eye moving along the sword's silhouette rather than stopping at decorative flourish. This minimalist guard is a hallmark of the koshirae style this piece embodies.

The saya is crafted from PU leather in a rich caramel brown, smooth and uniform in finish. An antique brass ring fitting is mounted on the saya body, its aged patina and decorative petal base providing the one moment of ornamental warmth in an otherwise restrained design. A brown sageo cord completes the mounting. If you're exploring similar pieces, our Brown Sageo Ninjato collection offers additional options in this color family.

This ninjato ships in a 43 x 4 x 4 inch package at a shipping weight of 4 lbs. The package dimensions make it straightforward to gift or store. For those drawn to the straight-blade ninja sword tradition more broadly, the Chokuto Ninja Sword collection provides related styles worth comparing. Note that a sword stand is not included.
