This is our junior delux varient of the 1045 Carbon steel iaito!!

Made for the smaller practitioners as well as the increasing number of youth participating in JSA. (See the photo below comparing the overall length and apparence of this sword to that of a typical 28" iaito).

It is constructed in exactly the same way a carbon steel katana is... only blunted on the cutting edge. Hand forged, hand polished, full length nakago (tang), double mekugi (retaining pin).

At 24" in blade length, this sword allows the smaller swordsman to execute drawing and sheathing techniques properly... Rather than having to twist your body to accomodate to a larger sword (and ultimately developing bad habits which are difficult to correct later on).

Additionally, the lighter weight of this sword presents less of a strain on the arms of the practitioner, allowing for a more comfortable practice session.

A basic sword with the standard weight, dimensions, strength, construction of a carbon steel katana and perfect for iai practices. Can also be used for stage and film purposes...

(This is a small batch trial production run... Not yet determined to be a regular inventory item).
