Protective Carrying Case for Katana with Shoulder Strap
Materials and Workmanship
The outer layer of the case is made of durable black faux leather (leatherette), which gives a professional impression and is easy to maintain. The interior is lined with soft felt, acting as padding to protect the sword's surface from abrasion. The case is spacious enough (width 14 cm or 5.5 inches) to accommodate most standard katanas, including the tsuba. The closure and overall design are engineered for easy handling.

Etiquette and Practical Use
While historical samurai carried their swords in their belt (obi) practically all the time, nowadays carrying exposed weapons in public is unacceptable and often illegal. A quality carrying case (sword bag) is therefore a necessity. It allows you to move in public without attracting unwanted attention while protecting your investment in the weapon. This case is suitable for sharp katanas, iaito (blunt practice swords), and wooden bokkens.
Maintenance
Caring for the case is very easy:
- Cleaning: The outer leatherette surface can be simply wiped with a damp cloth if dirty. Do not use aggressive chemicals.
- Storage: Ensure you insert the sword into the case dry and clean. If the case gets wet, let it dry thoroughly while open to prevent mould from forming inside, which could damage the sword.
You might also find a sword cleaning kit useful with this case, which you can carry inside along with the sword.
