4pc BLACK DUNCAN MACLEOD HIGHLANDER III SWORD SET Brand New in the Box 4pc BLACK DUNCAN MACLEOD HIGHLANDER III SWORD SET. This beautiful set contains a katana (43"), wakizashi (33"), and a Tanto (24").The katana, or the Japanese long sword, refers to a specific type of curved, single-edged sword traditionally used by the Japanese samurai. The weapon was typically worn by members of the buke warrior class paired with the wakizashi, or short sword. The two weapons together were called the daisho, and represented the social power and personal honor of the samurai.Tanto is a Japanese blade or small sword- a smaller version of the Katana. Tanto are often interchangeable with Wakizashi, and were preferred on the battlefield due to the fact that they were smaller and got in the way of battle much less. Their use was similar, and they were a samurai's sidearm.Tanto are forged generally in hira-zukuri, meaning that they have no ridge-line, unlike the shinogi-zukuri shape of a katana. They are generally very thin and therefore would cut soft targets very, very well. This set is a must have for any collector. The magnificent black lacquered saya (the scabbard), featuring bright black and gold cord wrapping, and a handguard piece of each sword are intricately designed as individual works of art. The handguard is the highlight of this piece. It is white acrylic with black highlights and a highly detailed mold. Its pommel is crafted into a menacing dragon head while the sides are molds of ancient oriental drawings.This is a limited production item. This is the Black version. The Highlander people say Black is the official color. Includes a hardwood table top display stand.This would be a great gift for any sword/knife collector or for yourself.
