Taikyu Katana by Dragon King SD35480

The Taikyu Katana by Dragon King is a weapon crafted with precision, tradition, and modern durability in mind. At its heart is a 28.87-inch blade forged from 9260 high carbon steel, a material well-regarded for its toughness and resilience. Finished in satin, the blade carries a clean and refined look, emphasizing the steel’s strength while reflecting its quality craftsmanship. Built as a full tang fixed blade, the Taikyu is designed for stability and balance, ensuring that every strike carries controlled power.

Measuring 40 inches overall, this katana maintains the proportions and handling expected of a serious cutting sword. At 2 pounds, 9.5 ounces, it strikes the right balance between weight and maneuverability. That weight provides enough heft for impactful strikes, yet remains agile in hand, allowing for smooth and precise cuts. Whether displayed as a collector’s centerpiece or practiced with in a martial setting, this blade delivers the performance expected from Dragon King’s commitment to quality.

The handle is constructed with durability and tradition in mind. A synthetic base ensures long-lasting strength, while the green cord-wrapped overlay provides both an authentic aesthetic and a functional grip. The wrap allows for confident handling, keeping the sword steady during practice or demonstration. It’s a handle design that blends old-world tradition with modern materials, ensuring lasting reliability without sacrificing the spirit of the katana.

Adding to its presentation is the saya, finished in a deep blue lacquer with teal sparks that shimmer when light strikes it. This detail enhances the katana’s visual appeal, turning the scabbard into more than just a housing—it’s a complement to the weapon itself, reflecting elegance alongside the katana’s power. The contrast of steel, green cord, and shimmering blue lacquer creates a striking combination that highlights both craftsmanship and artistry.

The Taikyu Katana by Dragon King is more than a display piece—it’s a fully functional weapon that embodies strength, tradition, and beauty. For practitioners, collectors, or anyone who respects the legacy of the katana, it stands as a blade of purpose and distinction. Order it today from SMKW!
