Handmade Damascus Seax Sword 15-Inch Blade, Viking & Anglo-Saxon Replica

The ninjato holds a distinct place in Japanese-inspired blade design, recognized by its straight blade and square guard, differing from the curved profile of a traditional katana. This shape became associated with stealth and close-quarters use in popular portrayals of Japanese sword craft. The Nightblade Ninjato Sword continues that same recognizable profile as every Handcrafted Ninjato we forge today.

Forged steel construction adds real durability to this design. Skilled smiths shape the blade to hold both strength and a clean, functional edge, giving each piece genuine cutting capability beyond a purely decorative build.
