Naginata Japanese Battle Axe

The Naginata, famed weapon of the Sohei, or warrior monks, of medieval Japan was fearsome in the hands of a skilled combatant and is today of great importance in the martial arts field.

Our Naginata, while retaining its traditional qualities, has now been revised to better meet the needs of the martial arts practitioner. Mounted on a long tang to better absorb the shock of a blow, the blade has a strong distal taper for balance and quickness.

The Naginata is supplied with a wooden saya, a protective cloth bag and a traditional boxed maintenance kit.
