This sword is not an Odachi but a Nagamaki, and you can distinguish them by the handle. Nagamaki had handles from about 60 to 90 cm, while Odachi had a handle about as long as a katana.
A robust, professional-grade Katana sword crafted for advanced strength-cutting drills—Tameshigiri—engineered in the style of traditional Japanese Ō-dachi swords (Jap. 大太刀, great sword). Ō-dachi represents a class of exceptionally long Japanese blades, customarily carried across the back and produced based on time-honored techniques using premium materials including steel, bronze, wood, and genuine stingray skin.
Forged from expertly tempered 1060 Carbon spring steel, the blade features a zero-grind edge, finely polished for a seamless finish between the flats and the cutting edge. Extremely sharp, the sword delivers precise and effortless cuts through training mats.
A wooden handle is wrapped in authentic Same (stingray skin - Raja). Enhanced with a decorative metal Tsuba (guard), Kashira (pommel cap), and Menuki (ornamental under the handle wrap), each element is precision-cast from high-quality metal. The scabbard (Saya) is expertly fashioned from wood and finished with enamel to mimic genuine Japanese lacquerwork.
An outstanding fusion of historical replica design and a highly functional, sharp-edged weapon for close combat.
Ideal for experienced practitioners of sword arts (Kenjitsu, Iaido, Kendo) as well as discerning collectors of weaponry.

A huge Japanese sword and incredibly sharp. You can have fun cutting water bottles with it or fruits and vegetables like pumpkin or watermelon. For me, it's great fun to use.
