This sword is a replica of Kochou Shinobu Stinger Nichirin Katana. Shinobu uses a heavily modified Nichirin Blade, it is the same as any katana from the handle to slightly above the tsuba, but above that, the weapon loses its blade and is replaced by a rod. It ends in a needle-like tip, resembling an insect's stinger. The "stinger" is designed for injection of Wisteria poisons into Demons. Shinobu's katana's tsuba is designed to bear resemblance to a four-petaled flower, trimmed with orange.
In order to become one of the highest-ranking demon slayers, known as the Nine Hashira, you must first prove your worthiness. That kind of training and dedication could not be achieved without the assistance of a reliable Nichirin, which is the sword or weapon that is specially made for a demon slayer to kill demons.
This replica Nichirin katana is made to look just like the sword owned by Shinobu Kocho, who despite lacking physical strength is nonetheless a very cunning and powerful member of the Nine Hashira in the series. The blade is constructed of high carbon steel with a black and silver finish and sports a unique cutout along the edge. In the anime, this “Stinger” blade is designed to inject Wisteria poison into demons. Etched onto the blade are the Japanese Kanji for “Destroy Demons”. A red-orange faux ray skin handle is wrapped meticulously with emerald green rayon in a traditional Japanese Style. The steel hand guard features a flower-like design in an orange and turquoise sinish. Included with this beautiful collectible katana sword is a hard matte black scabbard that features elegant yellow filigree designs and bright orange accents. A white belt frog Is also included to carry your sword wherever you go.
