AS FEATURED IN

THE NIGHT THE SHADOWS CAME HOME...

Long ago, a dark witch walked beside the roads at dusk, slowly swinging her lantern. As townsfolk passed and their shadows touched her lantern light, those shadows were ripped away and caged. Shadowless people faded into empty air until the surrounding villages started to empty.
 
A young gardener named Leese collected as much nightshade as he could and crushed it, coating a blade with the dark juice. The steel gleamed deep midnight blue, and Leese hid in the witch's own shadow. He drew the sword silently and cut her lantern in half. Thousands of shadows poured out, racing home to lift their owners from the netherworld. The light that fled the destroyed lantern clung to the edge of the blade. The silver flicker never faded.
 
Our Night Shade Tachi honors this legend, bringing light and shadow to your sword collection.
 
What is a tachi? The Tachi was the weapon of choice for the samurai class during the Heian period (794 to 1185) and into the Kamakura period (1185 to 1333). It has a more pronounced curve than a katana, especially towards the hilt, making it ideal for use on horseback.

Is the Night Shade Tachi sharp?

Yes. Its 1060 carbon steel edge is sharpened. It's made for display and light cutting only.

Is the story behind it real?

No. The Night Shade Tachi is an original Mini Katana design, and its story is a legend written for it, not history.

Can I bring it to a convention?

Most conventions ban sharp blades. For cosplay at events, choose a dull, foam, or plastic option and always check the venue's weapons policy first.

How do I care for my sword?

1. Wipe the 1060 carbon steel blade with a soft, dry cloth after handling. Fingerprints carry moisture and salts.
2. Apply a thin coat of protective oil every few weeks, more often in humid climates. Carbon steel rusts if neglected.
3. Don't store it in the saya for long periods in damp places, since a scabbard can trap moisture.
4. Keep oil off the handle wrap, and check now and then that the mekugi pegs are snug.
