Dai Katana

Dai Katana

Your master gave you your Dai Katana many years ago. It was a bittersweet moment for you, because while it meant you had overcome all the obstacles in your training, it also meant it was time to strike out on your own.

The hard leather along the handle feels comforting, and your hand finds its familiar, worn grip. As a traveling samurai (a ronin), your sword is your only constant companion.

You look beyond the campfire where a fresh fish is now cooking, sizzling in the heat, and watch the flickering shadows along the tree line. You have a feeling that tonight you and your sword may be tested once more when you hear the unmistakable snap of a twig and you grip your sword in anticipation.

DETAILS

The Epic Armory Dai Katana features a distinctive Asian appearance with a curved, slim, single-edged blade and square guard. The long, durable leather-wrapped handle fits both hands and offers a firm, comfortable grip on the battlefield. Made with durable closed-cell foam around a fiberglass core and finished with a strong latex coating, you can be sure your LARP weapon will provide the safety and appeal you desire when creating your Asian-inspired kit.
