Sakabatou Kenshin Samurai X – Inverted Blade

Sakabatou Kenshin Samurai X – Inverted Blade

The Sakabatou of Kenshin is a symbol of redemption and pacifism, inspired by the legendary swordsman Kenshin Himura from the anime Samurai X. This unique sword represents Kenshin's promise to redeem himself from the past by protecting life, using an inverted blade to strike without cutting. Every detail of this Sakabatou captures the essence of the samurai's way that seeks to protect the weak, making it a perfect choice for those who value honor and justice.

Description:

Apparently identical to a common katana, the Sakabatou differs in that its cutting edge is on the inner side of the blade, unlike traditional katanas. This allows it to strike without cutting deeply, symbolizing Kenshin Himura's promise to use the sword for good.

Tsuba:
