Samurai Sword HESHIKIRI HASEBE NOBUNAGA ODA Katana
【Description】
Ever since its origin during the Nambokucho period (Circa 1336-1392 A.D.), Japanese sword ‘HESHIKIRI HASEBE’ made by Hasebe has impressed plenty of past Samurai and sword collectors in history. Daimyo Oda Nobunaga is the most famous Samurai to have owned this sword. His cutting his servant in half is the origin of its title ‘Heshikiri,’ as he shoved this sword against the cupboard where the retainer hid on the behind. The sword Hasebe smoothly penetrated the whole furniture and reached over the servent’s body.
The original Heshikiri Hasebe is now registered as a national treasure and currently belongs to Fukuoka City, Fukuoka.
This product has some remarkable features as follows:
-Surpassing most replicas, the Midare-Ba pattern on the blade’s Hamon is nearly as intricate and beautiful as real Katana shows.
-the Buddhist mantra on its Tsuba (Handguard) that reads ‘南無妙法蓮華経,’ which means ‘I dedicate my faith to the great lessons of Renge-Kyo (the Buddhist Scripture).’

【Give the Replica Japanese Sword to Your Significant Other】
Are you looking for a unique gift for someone interested in Japanese culture?
We recommend you give them the replica Japanese sword as a present.
All our replica Japanese swords are great to display as they are precisely designed following the traditional Nihonto style.
Katana was the primary weapon of Samurai for a long time during the Samurai period. In Japanese culture, giving a sword to someone means to hope that the sword protects them from evil spirits and misfortune. Therefore, the Japanese sword still has its place in Japanese ceremonial events such as the Japanese wedding. The bride puts a Tanto(primarily known as Kaiken) under their belt, hoping that it protects them. Also, in the Shichigosan ceremony, people give a short Katana to their children wishing for their healthy growth.
