An iconic weapon of the Shinobi from feudal Japan, the Ninjato is a formidable weapon. Also named the Shinobigatana or the Ninjaken, the type of blade was traditionally worn horizontally across the back at waist height. Authentic replicas of this historical sword can be admired at esteemed locations such as the Ninja Museum of Igaryu, the Gifu Castle Archives Museum, and the Koka Ninja Village Museum.
With such a rich history, it's no surprise that the blade has found a place in pop culture. Popularized by notable practitioners like Masaaki Hatsumi and Stephen K. Hayes, this type of sword still remains an essential part of modern Ninjutsu.
This Ninjato model from Samurai Sword Store has a high manganese steel blade for durability and understated sophistication. Wrapped in a black cord over a black rayskin base, the handle keeps your grip secure. But it's the tsuba that truly stands out, with an intricately designed with a dragon motif. The sword comes paired with a sleek grey scabbard that will protect it when not in use.
Expertly hand-forged and razor-sharp, this full-tang weapon is not only a striking display piece but also a battle-ready tool forged using time-honored swordsmithing techniques. Whether for practice, collection, or admiration, this Ninjato embodies the skill, strength, and spirit of the legendary shinobi warriors.
