Zenpan-Teki General Katana

The Japanese samurai sword “Zenpan-Teki”, known in Japan as the “General’s Sword” or the “Leader’s Sword”, is crafted from 1060 carbon steel through meticulous handwork. It comes with a brown saya made of genuine hardwood in a leather look and features a spring closure. By pressing the flower (safety lock) on the tsuka (sword handle), the katana can be drawn from the saya. The blade is traditionally polished with sand and honed to razor-sharp precision.

The superior craftsmanship, the beautiful brass tsuba, and the elegant appearance make this katana a standout piece among mid-range priced katana.

„Speed in martial arts has nothing to do with the true way of the sword. Those who master the way will never appear hurried. Those who have mastered a skill move with composure in all their actions; they never lose their rhythm. Whatever they do, it does not appear rushed. (Miyamoto Musashi)
