This is a very
affordable and beautiful stainless steel iaito with for iai kata
practices. The closed surface of the steel from the mirror polish
makes this a gorgeous blade to look at and use. Not to mention the
fact that it will not require cleaning and maintanence as a standard
carbon steel iaito would.
Its construction
and assembly is the same as a carbon steel katana... only blunted
on the cutting edge.
The tsuba has
been upgraded from the old prayer wheel and is now much more attractive
Toyotomi crest tsuba. Note the mirror polish, making this a very
attractive blade.
Double mekugi.
Please
note that this blade should not be used for cutting exercises.

Type 9 Non-Sharpened 28" Stainless Steel Iaito Sale
Price: $169.99
Regular Price: $259.99 Our
Type 9 Iaito is constructed of a heat treated stainless steel. (A well treated
stainless steel blade with increased resiliency can be still very suitable in
katana length. It is, in fact, harder on the tools and a more difficult material
to work with.) It does not require the maintanence as a carbon steel blade would
since it is resistant to staining and corrosion. The edge of this blade is blunted
for iai kata practices. Cutting edge is smoothly finished so there is less of
the dangers associated with using a live blade for kata. The assembly and tolerances
are exactly the same as our regular blades. This blade is not made for cutting
or striking. | Stainless
