Description
What is an Iaito?
An Iaito is a specialized practice sword used in the Japanese martial art of Iaido (the art of drawing the sword).
While it looks nearly identical to a real Japanese sword (Shinken), it is specifically designed to be non-sharpened for safety during training.
Most Iaito are crafted from a high-quality zinc-aluminum alloy. This material is intentionally used because it cannot hold a sharp edge, meaning it is not classified as a weapon under Japanese law and does not require a permit.
Put on the traditional samurai armor and wield a katana at an unforgettable samurai workshop in Tokyo. Get a hands-on sword experience, wear the hakama, and immerse yourself in the Samurai and Ninja Museum.
