The Walking Dead Katana “Rezā Ken”

The handcrafted “Rezā Ken” Japanese samurai sword draws inspiration from the “Walking Dead Katana” (Special Black Edition), making it one of the most sought-after swords in the katana market. This samurai sword features a razor-sharp blade traditionally forged from T10 steel and crafted by hand using time-honored Japanese smithing techniques. The saya and handle are made from genuine hardwood. Both the tsuka (handle) and the saya (scabbard) are elegantly covered in leather and include an adjustable carrying strap.

The blade of this unique katana is clay-tempered, showcasing a genuine hamon, and is traditionally polished with sand. As such, this samurai sword meets the standards of a true Shinken-Katana, ready for the art of tameshigiri (cutting sport). The high-quality craftsmanship and the hand-carved saya made of genuine hardwood elevate this samurai sword as a standout in the mid-price range of katana.

“If one person tells a lie, a thousand others repeat it as truth.”
