Ichigo Tensa Zangetsu - Bleach Bankai Katana Replica, 1045 Carbon Steel, Black Blade
- Tensa Zangetsu is Ichigo's Bankai - where other Soul Reapers expand outward, Ichigo compressed all that power into a faster, slimmer black blade.
- Squared black alloy tsuba matches the anime's angular Bankai guard - specifically screen-accurate, not a standard round katana tsuba.
- Black cord wrap over red samegawa - the red-on-black handle accent is the signature Tensa Zangetsu detail Bleach fans look for.
- All-black 1045 carbon steel blade, 41 inches overall at 3.0 lbs - the slim profile and monochrome silhouette define the Bankai look.
- Note: this replica does not include the chain at the pommel from the anime - blade, guard, handle, and scabbard are all screen-accurate.
- 5-star rated, 277 reviews. One buyer said it 'replicates the one from the show to the T.' Free shipping & 30-day returns.

Product Details
Tensa Zangetsu is the sword that broke every rule about Bankai. Where other Soul Reapers release massive, overwhelming transformations, Ichigo's Bankai compressed all that power into a blade smaller, faster, and more precise than its Shikai form. The all-black design with its slim profile and squared-off guard became one of the most recognized sword silhouettes in anime - the visual shorthand for power through restraint.
This replica captures the Bankai form with a full-black 1045 carbon steel blade at 41 inches and 3.0 lbs. The black cord wrap sits over red samegawa - that red-on-black color accent is the signature detail that Bleach fans look for. The squared black alloy tsuba matches the anime's angular guard design rather than a traditional round katana tsuba. The black hardwood scabbard completes the monochrome look.
One thing to note upfront: this replica does not include the chain (tensa) at the pommel end that appears in the anime. The blade, guard, handle wrap, and scabbard are all screen-accurate, but the chain element is not present. Buyers who are specifically looking for the chain detail should factor this in. The vast majority of the 277 reviews focus on the blade and overall build quality rather than the chain, which suggests most buyers prioritize the core design over that particular accessory.
And the feedback on that core design is consistently strong. One buyer described the detail as "amazing" and said the sword "replicates the one from the show to the T." Another said "very well made, balanced, and looks great" and plans to order more. A buyer who purchased it as a gift reported it was "100% real" quality. The recurring theme across 277 reviews is that build quality surprises buyers who expected less at this price point.
Bleach experienced a massive revival with the Thousand-Year Blood War arc, and Tensa Zangetsu is the defining piece in Ichigo's journey. For Bleach collectors, browse the full Bleach anime sword lineup. This is the essential starting piece - the sword every fan recognizes instantly.
