Red Ninjato
Hand forged swordDescription
Red Japanese Ninjato
The handle of the Red Ninjato is wrapped in vibrant red cord, providing a secure and comfortable grip. The traditional wrapping technique not only enhances the aesthetic appeal but also ensures the handle remains firm and slip-resistant during use. The tsuba (guard) is intricately designed with a motif that complements the red handle, adding to the sword’s overall elegance. This decorative guard also serves a practical purpose, protecting the user’s hand during combat.
The scabbard, or saya, of the Red Ninjato is crafted from high-quality wood, lacquered to a glossy black finish. This contrast between the red handle and the black scabbard makes the sword visually striking, whether displayed or worn. The scabbard is adorned with a red cord wrap, which not only enhances its appearance but also ensures it remains securely fastened to the user’s belt. The smooth, lacquered finish protects the blade from the elements, ensuring it remains in pristine condition.
The Essence of the Red Ninjato
The Ninjato is renowned for its shorter blade and straight edge, distinguishing it from the more curved and elongated Katana. Historically, the Ninjato was favored by ninjas for its ease of use in tight spaces and its ability to deliver swift, lethal strikes. The compact design allowed ninjas to carry the sword discreetly and maneuver swiftly. The Red Ninjato honors this tradition, combining historical accuracy with modern craftsmanship.

How the Red Ninjato is forged
This iconic Japanese sword is traditionally forged using a meticulous and time-intensive process. The blade is typically made from a combination of iron sands and charcoal that has been smelted in a traditional furnace. The steel is then repeatedly heated, folded, and hammered to remove impurities and create a strong, durable blade with a sharp edge.
The resulting sword is not only a functional weapon, but also a work of art that embodies the rich cultural history of Japan.
