OEM Stainless Iaito 001, 002 (Unsharpened) - Liquidation Sale

Liquidation Price: $169.99

The OEM Stainless Iaito 001 and 002 are a completely different design than our regular iaitos. These are completely revamped from top to bottom. It has a larger tsuka diameter, catering to western practitioners with larger hands
who may find the standard tsuka geometry to be too small. Simple tsuba, synthetic sageo, coupled with stainless steel renders this sword much easier to maintain than most other iaitos. 28" blade length. The only difference between SS-001 and SS-002 is the color of the tsuka ito and sageo.
