From the Musha Collection comes this intricately hand forged "Seiryu" katana. Full tang 1045 high carbon steel makes this a resilient katana that is sharp right out of the box.

Detailed Maru gata style tsuba depicts the Seiryu which is known as one of the Dragon Gods who represent the chthonic forces of the five forms of the highest deity. In Japan, it is one of the four guardian spirits of the country and mainly protects the city of Kyoto on the east side.

The Highlander style katana has a unique intricate dragon head shaped handle with a brass colored detailed dragon themed tsuba. Unlike traditional katana the Highlander with the ivory color dragon head handle stands out from all the common katanas.

All Musha swords are able to be fully disassembled. Maru Gata style Tsuba, Fuchi, and Kashira all can be swapped out for a different set. Real wood handle is wrapped with traditional cotton.

Designed to be a fully functional katana, the Seiryu Katana with its quality build will astonish you with its value.

Sword arrived with loose Fuchi, Tsuba, and Sepoa.

I grew up watching the Highlander TV show. Overall, it's a really cool piece. The actual Tsuka feels very solid and isn't loose. Just the Tsuba, Sepoa, and Fuchi. The handle also doesn't seem to fit inside the Fuchi very well. I'm sure it could be fixed fairly easily, but my intention is to use it as a wall hanger. I'm sure that using a plastic faux ivory handle makes it difficult to get the fit perfect.
I previously bought a Shirakawa Black Ryu Katana from Musashi, and the fit and finish of that sword is excellent.

FAQ

What is the importance of provenance in determining a sword's value?

Provenance establishes the basic facts about a sword. It provides the date it was made, who made it and who owned it. This allows you to determine authenticity and, through this, the sword’s monetary and cultural value.

How can I protect myself from buying a fake Samurai sword?

Knowing the provenance of a Samurai sword is one sure way to ensure you are not duped. Purchasing the sword from an authorized and reputable dealer further safeguards against becoming the owner of a fake Samurai sword.

Are there any legal restrictions on owning a Samurai sword?

If you purchase a Samurai sword, you must be at least 18 in the United States. However, while owning and even displaying a Samurai sword in your residence is perfectly legal, state-governed restrictions may apply to whether you can carry it in public.

What are the responsibilities of owning a historical weapon?

If you own a historical weapon, you are assuming responsibility for its care and continuance. You must take care to treat it with the respect it deserves. You must ensure:

  1. It retains its excellent condition or can be restored appropriately to a pristine state.
  2. You preserve all the paperwork indicating its provenance.
  3. You protect it from damage, theft and other adverse situations.
What are the different types of Samurai swords?

Samurai swords are available in several types. The major kinds are:

  1. Katana
  2. Wakizashi
  3. Tanto
  4. Nodachi
  5. Tachi

Of these, the Katan is the most recognized.

What is the difference between “Musha” and “Musashi” swords?

The primary difference between Musha and Musashi swords lies in the materials and craftsmanship:

  • Musha Swords: These are more entry-level or budget-friendly swords, typically made with less expensive materials. They are perfect for beginners or those looking for a functional yet affordable sword.
  • Musashi Swords: These are higher-end swords, crafted with superior materials and greater attention to detail. They are often favored by collectors or martial artists seeking top-tier performance and aesthetic value.

Both Musha and Musashi swords are functional, but Musashi swords offer a premium experience with higher craftsmanship.
