 Hanwei Odachi
(大太刀)
Forging and heat treating a 49" blade is a tough task
but the Hanwei smiths have mastered the technique and
we're excited to bring you our functional and
historically accurate O-dachi. The "O" means great and
we're not kidding. With an overall length of 67" there's
only one way to describe this sword - large! Patterned
after an original from the 14th Century, when Odachi
were still in use on the field of battle, this sword is
a must for Japanese sword enthusiasts.
This is a truly awesome sword. If you love big
swords - you are going to have to get the Hanwei Odachi.
