Overview
Honshu Boshin® Saber Sword And Sheath
The Honshu Boshin® Saber sword is a swift striking modernized short saber with a sharp blade crafted from 7Cr13 stainless steel. The ergonomic and securely grip is molded from hardened thermoplastic rubber which is surmounted by a steel guard. The sword is just the right length to be handy in close quarters, but long enough to be effective at longer lengths. The sword is paired with a tough and sturdy scabbard of stitched faux leather with an integrated buttoned retaining strap and an integrated belt loop.
Please Note: The retaining strap at first may be difficult to button. It is intentionally made tight because it is expected for the leather to stretch as it settles in for a more long-lasting secure grip on the sword. You may need to stretch the leather to get it to button for the first time and it may then be a good idea to let the leather stretch and settle into its new form.
