Mantis is proud to introduce the most significant advancement in our katana line to date; the Performance Series. Featuring four distinct blade variations (Iaito, Katana, XL, and XL Light) each sword has been designed from the ground-up, with blade geometry specially adapted to the needs of each Japanese martial arts discipline. Currently offered in four formats (Tori, Musashi, Practical Plus, and Practical) with more to follow, the series feature a wide range of steel type and furniture styles to meet every budget.

The saya (scabbard) is hand-carved from  a light weight strong Japanese wood and then lacquered. The Kojori (end cap), Koi-guchi (throat) and Kuri-gata (eyelet) are made of hand-carved horn. All swords come with a sageo (belt tie).
