The funny thing about Japanese swords is that, while superficially to the completely untrained observer two swords might look “the same” – one is priced at $10,000 and the other, $60 (ok, you would think even the untrained eye might see the difference – but the point I am trying to make is that Japanese style swords, especially production models, are priced depending on how REFINED they are).
The only problem is, the more refined the blade – the more $$$. So what is the answer for someone who appreciates and wants a taste of a higher level of craftsmanship, but whose budget can’t justify spending over a grand to get one – we offer a middle way: why not buy an elite level WAKIZASHI!
We selected two of Hanwei’s finest to stock at SBG. And we shaved our margins to the bone to make the affordable alternative even more affordable.
Check out what we selected below.
