Japanese Ninja Kyoketsu Knife – Ready to Use and Throwable

The Kyoketsu knife was an essential, versatile tool of the Japanese ninja—unlike any other blade of its time. It served countless roles: cutting through armor, slashing open walls and doors, scaling castle walls, and even serving as a thrown weapon to eliminate enemies from a distance. Designed for speed, adaptability, and surprise, the Kyoketsu became a symbol of the ninja’s ingenuity.

This Kyoketsu Knife is a historically inspired, functional replica, crafted for cutting practice and training straight out of the box.

The sickle-like blade is sharpened along its curve, with a pointed tip protruding from the top for piercing strikes. Hand-forged from resilient 5160 spring steel—highly esteemed in the sword community for its durability—this blade offers strength, flexibility, and cutting performance.

The one-handed handle is crafted from genuine rosewood, fitted with metal accents including a sturdy collar and a ringed pommel at the base. The ring allows a rope to be securely tied through it, enabling whirlwind strikes or scaling techniques reminiscent of true ninja combat tactics.

Completing the piece, a proportionally designed scabbard ensures the blade is safely protected and easy to carry.
