Wakō, collectible katana (倭寇 Japanese pirate or bandit)

Decorative Katana with two Kozukas (小柄 knife), marine and pirate decorations, delivered in a black and red cloth-covered box.


I was born seven centuries ago, in a very special forge. The blacksmith who gave birth to me worked in a cave whose only access required climbing a cliff. By the sea, the basaltic cliffs of Tōjinbō (東尋坊 Sakai, Fukui prefecture) are still a geological singularity today.
That's how I served this pirate samurai (倭寇 wakō), back in the XIVᵗʰ century. My master led a ship of 300 warriors and successfully carried out several attacks against the coast of China. Sunk in a battle lost to treachery, I made my way to the mainland, where I was forgotten. After many battles and a reduction in size, I was given a katana mount, but I still retain some characteristics of my origin as a tachi (太刀 ancestor of the katana), especially with the braiding that covers part of my scabbard (鞘 saya). I'm still imbued with the spirit of my pirate master. Time doesn't matter to me. I wait patiently for one who can wield a sword as well as a ship.

"Éthique du samouraï moderne: Petit manuel de combat pour temps de désarroi", Patrice Franceschi


"Until his death in 2010, Master Isogushi taught at the Ishen dojo in southern Japan. His teaching comprised two inseparable disciplines: for the body and mind, the transmission of the whole range of traditional martial arts; for the soul and mind, a new guide for the conduct of life. We don't know how many of Master Isogushi's pupils came from the five continents, and all that remains of his teaching are the course notes taken by my old friend Emiliano Zapoga, known as "the Mexican", and collected here. The master wanted his words to be self-contained, while at the same time forming a complete ethical model that could be used in a concrete way by any man or woman. To which I add young adults seeking guidance in their lives" ...read more
