A blunt bladed shinken (training sword) for iaito, iaijutsu, partner training, and film / stage / reenactment combat.

The Tori iaito features truly elegant furniture: a flying crane themed tsuba and matching fuchi/kashira, with a kabuto inspired menuki. The high quality brown leather tsuka-ito is tightly wrapped over black same. The saya is wrapped at the mouth with black-lacquered rattan and finished in a textured brown.
