What is the right length for my Iaito?

Both a centreboard that is too short and one that is too long will hinder or prevent correct movements. We therefore recommend the following sword lengths as the maximum length.

Experience has shown that a size smaller is optimal for most people, as the table is designed for more advanced exercisers, for whom the pulling movement is slightly different than for less advanced users.

There is an extra column in the table for women. As the belt is traditionally worn higher on women than on men, it makes sense to use a different sword length.

The recommended measurement corresponds to the Japanese way of measuring. This means nagasa from munemachi (edge of the blade on the habaki) to the end of the tip.

In addition to our recommendation, there are also differences in the individual styles. That's why we always recommend asking your local sensei. As you can see, the optimum length can be a very individual issue. However, the table should help with orientation.

Body size Nagasa for men Nagasa for women Nagasa for novices

What do the Hamon names mean?

Brief explanation of the hamon variations you can choose from. Not all hamon are available for all swords. You can see the selection for the sword on the respective product page.

Suguha

A straight line. The most common pattern because the straight line goes well with the straightness of the samurai.

Notaries

Large waves. Another popular motif because the large waves create a very calm pattern.

Midare

A pattern with uneven, short waves and points.

Gunome

Relatively even short waves.

Doran

A more or less uneven pattern of larger waves and indentations.

Doran double line

The Doran pattern in a special version with two lines combined with each other. It looks much more sophisticated than the simple version. However, the realisation is also comparatively complex.

Dieses wunderbare Schwert zeichnet sich durch seine hochwertige Verarbeitung und seine schlichte aber edle Gestaltung aus. Das Schwert eines Landesherren.

Die hochwertige Eisentsuba mit Antiquefinish stellt eine stilisierte Chrysanthemenblüte dar. Die Menuki sind als Fächer gestaltet.

Besonders wertvoll ist auch die Same. Die Same-Perlen werden im Verlauf zum Griffende größer. Same mit so großen Perlen wird normalerweise nicht für Iaito, sondern für echte Schwerter benutzt.

Entsprechend der Wertigkeit des Schwertes ist die Sayaöse (Kurigata) mit einer goldenen Hitome verziert und es besitzt 2 Mekugi.

Wunderbar ausgewogen und hochwertig ist die Klinge. Die Klinge wird mit zwei Mekugi gehalten und ermöglicht so eine stabile und ruhige Handhabung.

Sie haben aber auch bei diesem Schwert die Möglichkeit gegen Mehrkosten eine Klinge mit doppelter Hi zu ordern.

Für Iaidoka, die die Vorteile dieses Iaito genießen möchten, aber trotzdem lieber mit einer leichteren Klinge üben, bietet Japan Budo eine leichte Klinge an bis 2,45 Shaku.

Beispiel-Gewichte bei normaler Klinge zur Orientierung:
Bei 2,50 Shaku ca. 900 g
Bei 2,60 Shaku ca. 980 g
