Movie Trivia
In the world of Kill Bill, the legendary swordsmith Hattori Hanzo swore never to make a tool of death again. He broke his oath only for The Bride (Uma Thurman) so she could defeat Bill, who wielded this very sword. Bill's katana bears the demon motif, symbolizing his dark and dangerous nature as the leader of the Deadly Viper Assassination Squad. This replica lets you connect with this tale of revenge and honor.
Important Warning and Care
Please keep in mind that this is strictly a decorative replica. The stainless steel blade is not tempered for practical use.
- Warning: Never use this katana to strike objects or for fencing practice. The construction is not designed to withstand impact; the blade could break or the handle could come loose, potentially causing injury. It is a "wall hanger" meant for display or cosplay.
- Maintenance: Although the steel is stainless, we recommend avoiding touching the blade with bare hands (sweat is acidic). Wipe it occasionally with a soft cloth and apply a little preservation oil (like WD40 or silicone oil).
