Distinct mounting style
Tachi-style pieces are identified by their presentation and suspension-oriented koshirae.
Discover newly made tachi-style swords inspired by the earlier Japanese sword form traditionally worn edge-down. Our listings focus on the features of the actual finished model: blade dimensions, steel, curvature, fittings, suspension-style mounting and saya details.

US$89Tachi and katana are related Japanese sword forms, but their traditional wearing orientation and mountings differ. On a newly made tachi-style sword, the most visible distinction is often the koshirae and suspension hardware rather than length alone.
For that reason, compare each model by its documented curvature, blade and handle dimensions, fittings, saya construction and total weight. We use the term tachi-style to describe these modern Longquan-made pieces accurately without suggesting that they are antique Japanese swords.
Review the suspension hardware, fittings and saya decoration as a complete presentation.
Compare the stated blade form and measurements rather than assuming all tachi-style swords are longer.
Check the documented steel, heat treatment and fitting materials for the individual model.
Advanced dimensions and decorative work require feasibility and price review.
Historically, tachi were generally worn suspended edge-down, while katana were commonly worn edge-up through the belt. On modern reproductions, mounting style is often the clearest distinction.
No. They are newly made tachi-style swords produced and assembled through our workshop in Longquan, China.
Selected dimensions, blade details, fittings, saya finish and engraving can be reviewed. The approved scope, price and production time are confirmed before work begins.
Tell us the intended use, dimensions, blade requirements, mounting preferences and destination. We will review feasibility before a custom order is accepted.
