The “Three Wise Monkeys” is
a popular symbol of the “See no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil”
proverb popular in many cultures around the world. The proverb itself
is thought to have originated in China and was brought to Japan by a Buddhist
monk, while the association with three monkeys appears to be a Japanese
play on words. Our Three Monkey Katana and Wakizashi are built on traditional
Shinogi Zukuri style blades with Bo-Hi to reduce weight and improve balance.
The high-carbon blade is hand forged and differentially tempered. The
blackened iron Tsuba features the “Three Wise Monkeys” in
relief. Estimated Retail Price 680
