Shitodome for Kurikata

Shitodomé were designed to fit into the hole on the sides of the Kurikata and the Kashira in order to limit the fraying of the silk cord as it passes through the holes and also to add a little bit of glitter to an otherwise dark colored part.

Shitodome for kurikata

Shitodomé were designed to fit into the hole on the sides of the Kurikata and the Kashira in order to limit the fraying of the silk cord as it passes through the holes and also to add a little bit of glitter to an otherwise dark colored part.

Shitodomé can be found on many fine quality Japanese swords produced in the 'old days'. Because Shitodomé need to fit into a tight & small hole in the water Buffalo horn Kurikata, there is a tendency for them to bend easily and as such, restrict the free passage of Sageo and in most cases, totally deny their passage.

This is a pair of Shitodome made from gold gilt silver base.

My Promise To You

Nothing leaves this place without checking

Nobody like to receive a katana or any other product with a quality problem. A loose tsuba, seppa, chip in the saya,or any other damage. So before I ship your order , I personally check the quality of the product. Only if it’s 110% ok I will ship it to you.

90 Days return policy

Placing an order online is a great thing but sometimes you feel disappointed when you receive it . Although I’m doing my very best to provide you with a lot of detailed pictures and videos where possible, I do understand your concern . So if you don’t feel comfortable with your purchase just return it. Contact me prior to returning your order. This policy does not apply on any personal made katana or customized katana.

No charging before shipping

In case you pay with visa or mastercard, your card won’t be charged automatically when placing your order. Only when I finished the quality check and the courrier confirmed the pick up of your order, your card will be billed.

    Living in the EU, I had to find a retailer within EU in order to avoid trouble with Customs authorities. I was lucky to find the Samurai Sword Shop, where Dave was as helpful as one can get.
  • Koch, Ernst  
    I've ordered the Practical Pro katana together with a double sword stand by Samurai Sword Shop.
    They seem to have nice people working there cos they treat you like friends. I made that up drom the mails they send me about my order. I'm sure I'll order my next katana by Samurai Sword Shop too.

Want to customize this sword ?

If this standard model is almost what you’re looking for but it need a few personal tweaks and a 100% custom katana is not an option or needed, I can always give this baby a little ‘facelift’.

Rewrapping the tsuka with the material and or color of your choice, changing fuchi & kashira , tsuba, menuki and or seppa are all possible.

A rewrap of a standard size tsuka (katana) will run around 125 euro, including cotton ito.
