Konron Shinken

Quality shinken for tameshigiri at an affordable price.

These quality 9260 steel shinken are especially designed for tameshigiri or cutting tests. If you're looking for a cheap dojo cutter, your search is over.

This small collection of shinken are just great for frequent tameshigiri exercises in your dojo (or at your home) Cutting goza, multiple rolls of Tatami omote, bamboo and other medium hard targets are no problem at all for this sword. The addition of 1,8 – 2,3% silicon to the steel of these blades are making them very strong but also very flexible and perhaps better cutting katana than most of the differentially hardened swords.

Forged Steel Shinken

Quality Forged Steel Katana swords & Unique Shinken

These quality 1070 steel katana swords are ideal if you are looking for a very nice AND functional katana. The nice finish and unique hamonline are making these swords unique in their price range !

Each shinken you will find on this page has an unique hamon (created by the clay process) and you won’t be able to find 2 exact the same swords as it's the case with most of the 'production' katana on the market today. The smith put a lot of time & effort in the clay-coating process in order to give each blade it’s own “soul”. We tested these swords ourselves and we can guarantee you that these swords are not only beautiful but also functional and a good katana for the practitioner !
