The neighboring Kouga and Iga clans of feudal Japan were bitter enemies for centuries and their warring Ninja families have been immortalized in Japanese literature. To commemo rate these secretive warriors we have introduced our Kouga and Iga NinjaTo. The dismountable doublepegged Tsuka of the Iga NinjaTo features a traditional wrap over natural rayskin and Clouds and Sun/Water and Moon Menuki. The blackened iron fittings include a Tsuba displaying the Iga Mon and a wave motif both repeated on the Fuchi/Kashira. The Saya features a partial rattan wrap and a heavily reinforced spike. The Iga features a forged high carbon blade differentially quenched to an edge hardness of 60HRc. Essential tool for the Ninjutsu practitioner. Made by Hanwei.
