The Shinwa Dark Knight Damascus Steel Katana is one of the best values on the sword market today. The full tang blade is hand forged from 1045 and 1060 carbon steel that is folded 11 times, resulting in a remarkable, strikingly gorgeous 4,096 layers. The blade is then clay tempered, yielding a true hamon line and an impressive edge hardness of 58RC. The hardwood handle is traditionally wrapped in genuine ray skin. This sword features all the classic embellishments you love, including a brass habaki and menuki, as well an antique finished tsuba and kashira. A hand lacquered scabbard houses the magnificent 28" blade in glorious style.

Beautiful. Reviewed by on Oct 13, 2017   5 out of 5

Wow. Most likely Shinwa's best.


Great Sword! Reviewed by on Sep 25, 2017   5 out of 5

I have many swords, most of them katanas. This Shinwa katana is by far the best quality sword I have purchased from the company. Very well put together with a beautiful Hamon line. You can tell it's not a fake Hamon via acid etch because it's only visible in the right light. Just like it should be to reveal a true clay tempered Hamon. The fit and finish is amazing and feels fantastic in the hand. I've done martial arts from child hood holding several black belts and even an international ranked 2nd Dan black belt with the Kukkiwon world Taekwondo federation. I don't mean to brag just want you to know I've held many weapons over the years and this one is by far the best katana for under $500.00.


Overall amazing Reviewed by on Jul 11, 2016   5 out of 5

I bought this sword a few weeks ago and it is absolutely fabulous. Taking price and quality and performance into consideration it's an amazing deal and is worth the purchase for anyone who plans to use or display it.
