Product Details
Shinobu Kocho is the only Hashira who cannot cut off a demon's head. She is too small, and her arms lack the strength for the final swing. Every other pillar kills by decapitation. Shinobu kills by poison. Her Nichirin blade is modified with a stinger-like tip that injects wisteria-based venom directly into demon tissue. She does not need to overpower her enemy - she needs one clean thrust. Insect Breathing is built entirely around that principle: speed, precision, and a toxin that does the work after the blade is already withdrawn.
The 1045 carbon steel blade carries a black finish at 40.5 inches and 3.2 lbs with full-tang construction. The handle combines red PU samegawa with blue cord wrapping - the only warm-cool color clash in the entire Hashira lineup. Every other Hashira sword uses either monochrome or coordinated warm tones. Shinobu's red-on-blue creates visual tension that mirrors her character: always smiling on the surface, burning with grief underneath. The four-leaf alloy tsuba represents butterfly wings, tying directly to the Kocho sisters' motif. The black hardwood scabbard is finished with premium natural lacquer.
Mike bought this as a gift for his daughter and calls it "a very nice katana, exceeding my expectations based on the cost." Stephanie ordered it for her best friend's wife - "it exceeded all my expectations." Tim calls it his "favorite katana I own" and says he will be buying more. The gift pattern is striking in the reviews: most buyers purchased this sword for someone else - daughters, husbands, sons, best friends' wives. Shinobu reaches households that might never have searched for a katana otherwise.
For the Hashira wall display, Shinobu's red-blue handle pops between the darker tones of Giyu and Muichiro on one side and the bright colors of Sanemi and Zenitsu on the other. Pairs naturally with Kanao Tsuyuri's flower sword to tell the complete Kocho family arc. Browse the full Nichirin sword collection for all available builds.
