LARP Ryugan the Katana – Shadow

Let the calm of battle flow through you while you wield the LARP Ryugan the Katana. Forged from darkest shadow, this legendary katana is eager to taste battle in your hands.

Step Onto the Path of Shadow

Crafted from EVA foam, this LARP katana is an excellent weapon for samurai, Ronin, and all kinds of fantasy warriors fighting in LARP events. It’s coated in a layer of latex for longevity. A fiberglass rod core in the center makes it a strong and flexible weapon. This ensures it will last in your kit for years to come, letting you embark on the path of the warrior with confidence. This LARP samurai sword is similar to a hand-and-a-half sword, meaning you can wield it with one or both hands for control and battlefield versatility.

Ryugan means “the dragon’s eye,” a hint of clever fantasy detail well-suited to add some flair to your character. This black katana has an appearance that’s as elegant and deadly as shadow, a refined weapon for a refined warrior. Like true katana from feudal Japan, this LARP bastard sword has a curved, single-edged blade. This blade has a blackened finish with a jagged hamon line for added detail, making it look like it has been expertly crafted by master smiths. For added safety, the tip of the blade has been reinforced with Kevlar. This makes it excellent for slashing and piercing attacks.

All along the blade is a single groove called the hi. Below the blade is a blade collar, called the habaki, crafted as a reinforced plate. The tsuba, also known as the guard, is a series of interconnected rings. As an added layer of detail, these rings are intricately engraved with flowers. The tsuba can be removed for modifying your own DIY LARP samurai sword.

Reinforcing the guard is a contoured piece called the fuchi, often referred to as the hilt collar. The handle is wrapped in the tsuka-ito style to pay homage to traditional katana designs. Beneath the handle wrapping is the handle itself, crafted to resemble wood. At the bottom, the kashira, also known as the pommel, has the same darkened steel finish as the rest of the hilt.

Care Instructions:

• Latex weapons do need to be maintained to a certain degree. We offer a 100 ml LARP Protection Gel Silicone (MCI-3722) in our LARP Accessories section. We recommend you use the silicone on a regular basis. The silicone will keep the coating flexible and increases the lifetime of the weapon. It also prevents the coating from drying out, and improves resistance to wear and tear.
