The Practical Shinobi Ninja-to whose construction patterns closely that of the Practical Katana, is a wonderful addition for those studying the Way of the Ninja.
The blade is made of hand-forged high-carbon steel and is differentially tempered using a traditional claying method. All the fittings (koshirae) are done in antiqued black iron. The ornate tsuba displays the kuji-kiri (energy-channeling hand positions) employed by the mystical ninja.
The tsuka is wrapped in a synthetic ray skin (same), available in black or white, and the tsuka-ito is done in imitation black leather. The saya has flat black finish with demon-head bindings for the black Japanese cotton sageo and an intricate kojiri on the end of the saya. A sword no practitioner of Ninjutsu should be without.
