Distinctly modern sword with an ancient soul Boshin® retains legendary wakizashi sharpness, adds state-of-the-art upgrades
The Boshin® Wakizashi epitomizes Honshu's celebrated knack for fusing tradition and innovation into masterworks of modern sword design and engineering. True to the legendary Japanese Wakizashi’s roots, the Boshin® boasts a 22 1/2” full-tang blade that is simply unrivaled in sharpness and durability. Swordsmiths and scholars have long deemed the storied Wakizashi the sharpest weapon on the planet, and, fittingly, no edge on any sword, anywhere can contend with the shear cutting and cleaving clout of the Boshin’s® impossibly sharp 1060 high carbon steel blade. It can literally slice through a cinder block like a hot knife through butter, suffering nary a scratch or fissure. But take one look at the Boshin® and it immediately becomes clear - this is no ordinary Wakizashi.
More "black ops" than "black tie" Boshin® sheds elegant samurai robes, dons tactical duds tailored to today's warrior
Trading traditional trappings and garb for contemporary style and cutting-edge appointments, the innovative Boshin® is undeniably a weapon for the modern era. Advanced textured TPR rubber shrouds the tsuka for an ergonomic no-slip grip you just can’t get from conventional ray skin and cord. The tsuka is crowned with an oversized polished steel kashira with handy lanyard hole, and the tsuba snubs fanciful ornamentation in favor of a pragmatic asymmetrical pointed ellipse design. Deep blood grooves extend along the sleek, gleaming blade from the base of the tsuba to the outset of the boshi, the blade’s placid terminal curve that culminates with the stinging kissaki, or point.
"Saya" love it Sleek, tastefully clean scabbard furthers contemporary vibe
A tough black wooden saya, or scabbard, secures the razor-sharp blade. In keeping with the Boshin’s® clean, functional aesthetic motif, the satiny smooth saya is largely unembellished, save the handsome black genuine leather sageo. Even among far more expensive swords, Honshu's remarkably affordable Boshin® Wakizashi is sure to become the cherished focal point of your collection, admired and coveted by all who lay eyes on it.
Zen and the art of swordcraft Wielding the Boshin® is nothing short of surreal
With its fierce cutting potency and sublime feel, wielding this carbon steel masterpiece is almost Zen-like and beyond description; you just have to experience it for yourself! Truly a must-have for longtime Japanese Wakizashi aficionados, beginning sword fanciers and everyone in between.

Reviews
amazing
"My son order a sword but accidentally ordered two, budk made it so simple and easy to change that up, they didn't fuss and mailed the first one out while holding the other sword for me to confirm the cancellation. It came quickly, on time and I ordered pretty close to Christmas. The sword was sturdy. sharp and my husband was thrilled, While my daughters fiance was jealous. This business has been around forever and proved why, thank you so much."
It's great but can be better
"The wakizashi is well made but the habaki(base of the blade) does not fit flush with the Saya(sheath). A good sword should remain in its scabbarb even if held upside down. Other then that, I like the sword and plan to fix it myself. Hope this helps!"
Wakazashi
"Beautiful sword! Good quality, I'd use it in battle confidently. very attractive as well!"
Absolutely spectacular piece of metal work
"The katana overall is exceptionally well balanced. I truly appreciate the slightly heavier handle. It allows for a better grip and maneuvering of the blade itself. The fact that it’s all black is especially incredible and beautiful to me. The bladed is captivating mesmerizing extraordinarily sharp. The craftsmanship was outstanding, and I could not have expected any better. Definitely buying another one soon."
Fantastic Wakizashi
"Title says it all - balance is perfect for one handed use but the handle has comfortable space for two. Blade is well tempered and returns to true when bent. Definitely getting the full sized version next."
Great quality! Extreme value
"I absolutely love this Sword. I purchased the Wakizashi 34” sword and I am still in awe of its beauty. For me it’s perfect. The weight is perfect and feels like a great quality product. I honestly love the weight to it. In a combat situation I would feel more confident with something with weight. For me it’s a perfect balance of beauty, simplicity and function. I will now buy the 41” Katana knowing the quality I can expect! Beautiful Sword. Thanks!!"
Ninja
"Smooth to operate. Make an expert of a novice very quickly this one."
Nice blade
"It has a nice feel in the hand and was delivered without issue. Haven't tested the blade yet but with the weight it has it shouldn't be bad, real nice sword."
Good buy for the money
"Seems solid, decent craftsmanship, my only complaint is it has a very obtuse edge and not sharp at all, I can run my finger down the whole blade with pressure. Not sure if it's for shipping or if mine just didn't make it to the wet stone."
