- The Musashi Iaito provides an economical yet authentic sword for the Iaido practitioner.
- The blade is unedged for safety and forged from steel for more precise weight and balance than an aluminum blade can offer.
- The blade is also maintenance free, providing a lifetime of practice without worry of rust or tarnish.
- Miyamoto Musashi, arguably the most famous swordmaster in Japanese history, fought more than 60 duels before retiring and writing his famous treatise on swordplay, the ?Book of Five Rings?.
- Development of the two-sword style of swordplay, with the Daito (long sword) and Wakizashi being used together, is credited to Musashi.
- Mounted in black, the Musashi Elite is faithful to the original down to the famous double-ring iron tsubas.
- The tsuka-ito is in leather over ray skin.
