Demon Slayer Katana “Kamado Tanjiro”

Tanjiro’s anime sword from “Demon Slayer” is forged from 1045 carbon steel with a distinctive red galvanization, handcrafted to perfection. It comes with a saya made of lacquered hardwood, enhancing the sword’s traditional beauty. The blade itself is hand-forged and traditionally polished with sand to achieve a pristine finish.

The high-quality craftsmanship, combined with the ornate, detailed, and elegant appearance that mirrors its depiction in the “Demon Slayer” series, makes Tanjiro’s katana a standout among cosplay swords. This piece captures the essence of Tanjiro’s character and the artistic spirit of the beloved anime, making it an exceptional choice for fans and collectors.

„To calm the spirits of those it has killed and to ensure that it claims no more victims, I will swing down my blade and mercilessly cut off the head of every demon! But… I will not destroy those who regret their actions and suffer from the things they did as demons. Because demons were once human. Because they were like me.” (Kamado Tanjiro)

Tanjiro’s Katana from Demon Slayer

Tanjiro is a young man of average height and an athletic, muscular build. He has tousled, black hair with burgundy tips that is combed back to expose his forehead, and large, dark red eyes with white pupils that appear lighter in the lower part of his iris. He also has a scar on the top left of his forehead, first seen when his mother took him to watch his father perform the Hinokami Kagura dance.
