Art Gladius Training Katana – Aluminium Blade & Leather Handle

Detailed Description and Features:

  • Appearance: The katana features a classic, elegant design inspired by traditional Japanese swords. Its slightly curved aluminium blade has a polished finish. The simple, round guard (tsuba) and pommel are made from durable stainless steel, giving the weapon an authentic look and contributing to good balance.
  • Handle (Tsuka): The handle is meticulously wrapped in quality burgundy-coloured leather, ensuring a firm and comfortable grip during practice sessions.
  • Blade: The blade is crafted from lightweight yet robust aluminium. Importantly, it is blunt (edge thickness approx. 1.5 mm), guaranteeing maximum safety during handling and training. Aluminium excels as a material for training weapons due to its low weight, ease of maintenance, and resistance to corrosion. The total blade length is approximately 570 mm (plus a 20 mm tang extending into the handle).
  • Scabbard (Saya): Included in the delivery is a wooden scabbard (saya) in a light natural wood colour, which serves to protect the blade. The scabbard is elegantly finished with a burgundy cord (sageo).
  • Dimensions and Weight:
    1. Overall length: approx. 870 mm
    2. Katana weight: approx. 369 g
    3. Scabbard weight: approx. 242 g
    4. Total weight: approx. 611 g (the favourable weight facilitates handling)
  • Manufacturer: Art Gladius, Spain – a guarantee of quality European craftsmanship.

Intended Use:

This katana is specifically designed for practising combat techniques, kata, and various martial arts (such as Iaido, Kenjutsu, Aikido). It is not intended for full-contact sparring or for striking hard materials. Thanks to its realistic appearance and safe design, it is also an excellent accessory for:

  • Cosplay and historical costumes
  • Theatrical and film performances
  • Decorating interiors with an Asian or martial theme

Safety Guidelines:

Although this is a practice weapon with a blunt blade, it must always be handled with respect and maximum caution:

  1. Always ensure you have sufficient free space around you during training to prevent accidents.
  2. Never point the sword at other people or animals.
  3. When practising with a partner or in a group, ensure the safety of all participants and consider using protective gear.
  4. Regularly check the condition of the weapon, particularly the tightness of the guard (tsuba) and the integrity of the handle wrapping.
  5. Always store the katana out of the reach of children and in a safe place.

This Art Gladius Training Katana allows you to safely develop your skills or perfectly complements your costume or collection. Its high-quality materials and precise Spanish manufacturing make it a reliable companion for your training.
