Bohi Modern Wakizashi

Prepare for your next mission wielding the Bohi Modern Wakizashi. This wakizashi bears the legacy of traditional swords from Japanese history, reimagined for the modern warrior.

A Masterpiece of Design

Forged from 1566 high-carbon steel, this modern wakizashi shows off a traditional craftsmanship dating back millennia. Carbon steel is renowned for its strength and durability. This wakizashi, also known as the Japanese short sword, is meant to be wielded with one hand. The blade has been differentially hardened to reveal a stunning visible hamon line. Hamon is the wavy pattern along the cutting edge of the blade. The sharpened blade is curved slightly like true wakizashis from feudal Japanese history. Designed for the modern samurai warrior, the blade has the iconic bohi along the blade, also known as the fuller. This fuller removes extra weight from the blade without compromising its speed or strength.

Further down, the copper habaki, or blade collar, is anchored to the guard by the copper seppa. Seppa are two small washers placed on both sides of the crossguard. The tsuba crossguard is fashioned in the maru gata style. The maru gata style means it’s designed like a circle with two perforated holes on either side of the blade.

Moving down to the hilt, the handle is made of riveted G10 plates. Those plates are textured with small, thin grooves for a secure grip. Embossed on the hilt is a silvery dragon as the menuki. Menuki refers to the decoration on the handle.

This modern silver dragon wakizashi comes with a black saya, also known as the scabbard. The scabbard has olive paracord sageo, referring to the cord tied around the scabbard for tying to your belt. The sageo is tied to a polymer kurigata, known as the protrusion on the scabbard. At the bottom, the scabbard has a polymer kojiri, also known as the pommel.
