Elite Performance Katana

This sword is light and fast.  

The same safe durable edges as on all of our performance blades, but with 1/3 less weight than the Standard Katana at just under 400 grams - That's lighter than a fencing foil, a competition wushu sword, and even some bamboo blades!

If you want light, fast, and safe you no longer have to choose between floppy painted bamboo or thin whippy steel swords. The Elite Performance Katana will help you maintain ultimate safety and control in choreographed fight scenes without worrying about damaging your blades with controlled contact*.  

Or if your focus is on tricking and flipping and want the lightest sword possible that can still hold up to blade on blade contact, the Elite Performance Katana is for you.  

Comes standard with a lightweight 7075 AL Musashi-style tsuba, crisp geometric bohi and Choji faux-hamon and a black saya.   
[A substitute tsuba may be requested or customized for an extra fee, but it may make the sword heavier]
