Onikiri – KON52 – 41in Sakabato – Fixed Blade Knife – 1045 HC Satin – Cord Wrapped – Jade

Description

Inspired by the legendary reverse-edge style, the Onikiri KON52 Sakabato is a unique blend of historical reference and modern interpretation. The sakabato, known for its reversed cutting edge, symbolizes discipline, restraint, and mastery—an iconic motif that appeals to longtime sword enthusiasts and anime-inspired collectors alike.

The blade is forged from 1045 high-carbon steel with a satin finish that enhances its visual depth while allowing the grain and shaping to remain visible. At 41 inches overall, the blade presents a well-balanced length suitable for both display and kata practice. The satin polish brings a soft luster that feels premium without unnecessary flash.

The standout feature of the KON52 is its jade-green cord wrap. This vivid, refreshing color gives the sword a distinct aesthetic that immediately stands out from traditional black or red-wrapped models. Beyond appearance, the handle wrap is functional, providing secure grip and comfort during handling. The saya is styled to match, completing a cohesive look that blends elegance and individuality.

Collectors value this model because it bridges thematic inspiration with real-world construction. The sakabato edge orientation makes the blade a conversation starter, while the steel, shaping, and construction quality ensure it remains a legitimate katana suitable for kata or collection display. Whether you’re a fan of the reverse-edge lore or simply drawn to its rare styling, the KON52 brings personality and craftsmanship together in one compelling package.
