Rurouni Kenshin Reverse Blade Sword Set Before the Meiji Restoration - Himura Kenshin was known as Hitokiri (Murderer) Battousai. When the old government was overthrown and the fighting had drawn to an end - Hitokiri Battousai had disappeared. Kenshin wandered the countryside for nearly eleven years; the world presumed him dead or lost. When Kenshin returns - he is no longer Hitokiri Battousai - for he has sworn never to take another life again. His sword is not a regular sword - but a reverse-bladed sword - meaning that he cannot kill anyone with his sword - but he can defend himself. Kenshin is a man who is trying to escape his past - and create a future for himself. You can now own a replica sword set based on this great legend. This set includes the Katana which is 38.5 inches overall with a 27 inch blade - the Wakizashi - 29.5 inches overall with a 19 inch blade and the Tanto - 19.5 inches overall with a 11 inch blade. The blades are made out of 440 stainless steel (Factory Edge). The handle is cord wrapped with steel fittings and a black hardwood scabbard. For those unfamiliar with the reverse blade katana - the sharp side is opposite where you would normally expect it - while the normal cutting side - is the wide unsharpened portion of the blade. The idea behind this is when striking your opponent as you would with a normal sword - when using the reverse blade sword the opponent would be stunned - not cut. -- $199.95  |
