How to Choose Your One Piece Katana

Start with the sword. Zoro’s current trio—Wadō Ichimonji in a white scabbard, Sandai Kitetsu in a red scabbard, and Enma in a purple scabbard—is available in steel, a light-up version, and as a mini-katana; his older swords, Shūsui and Yubashiri, are also available. The swords of Trafalgar Law, Mihawk, and Luffy round out a display dedicated to the crew and its rivals.

Next, choose the version. The Metal One Piece katana, often made of two-tone 440 steel, have a lacquered wooden sheath and measure about 1 m. The One Piece Wooden Katanas, with two-tone bamboo blades, weigh about 550 g and are easy to carry for cosplay. The luminous katanas combine a metal blade and an ABS component illuminated by LEDs. The mini katanas are 45 cm long.

The Must-Haves of the Collection

Some pieces stand out from the standard format and are showstoppers in their own right: the Dracule Mihawk's Yoru Sword, with its 90-cm blade, and the Trafalgar Law's Kikoku, 143 cm version. As for Zoro, the Shūsui katana and its 70-cm blade is reminiscent of Ryūma's sword, while Enma comes with a black sheath or purple.

Displaying and Caring for Your Katana

A katana looks its best on a presentation support or a wall mount suitable for the length of its sheath, protected from moisture and direct sunlight. For steel blades, wipe off fingerprints with a soft cloth, then apply a thin layer of oil, such as Ballistol all-purpose oil, from time to time. Our Katana Care Guide explains each step in detail.

Do the One Piece light-up katanas come with batteries?

Can you buy and carry a One Piece katana?

Metal replicas are restricted to adults. When transporting your katana, always keep it in its box or in a sheath; never carry it by hand on the street. At trade shows and conventions, metal replicas are usually prohibited, and sometimes even wooden ones: replicas are generally only allowed for cosplayers during parades.
