The Wind & Thunder Wakizashi is fitted with the black iron Raiden tsuba and Tomoe motif fuchi and kashira. The handle is wrapped in genuine same (ray skin) and the tsuka-ito is premium Japanese black cotton. The saya is done in a traditional black lacquer and the sageo is also black cotton. This sword is an excellent choice for those interested in batto-jutsu. It is suitable for tameshigiri (test cutting) or kodachi kata. The CAS Hanwei Wind and Thunder Wakizashi fittings match the katana and make a great daisho set.
