Practical Iaito

The Practical Iaito is an economical yet functional sword for martial arts training. Now with the blade geometries and profiles of the performance series and the affordability of our Practical fittings, competition-standard cutting is within the reach of the tightest budget - Iaito: Frequent Drawing Practice. These unedged training blades provide for safe drawing for the beginning practitioner of the 450 year old art of Iaido. Forged from stainless steel the tempered blades are not only maintenance-free but more importantly provide the correct weight and balance needed for the rigors of repetitive drawing and sword motion practice.

Each blade has a deeply cut groove (bo-hi) to provide audible feedback when swung properly.
