In Sucker Punch’s Ghost of Tsushima (2020), Jin Sakai is the last samurai of Tsushima Island during the Mongol invasion of 1274. The game, winner of numerous awards (BAFTA Game of the Year, The Game Awards Game of the Year), won players over with its refined aesthetic inspired by Akira Kurosawa’s films. The Ghost of Tsushima Katana sharpened edition is the replica of Jin Sakai’s katana in its standard design.
The blade (nagasa approximately 70 cm) features a uniformly polished finish, consistent with the weapon’s appearance in the game. The sori curvature is restrained, faithful to the standard samurai-era katana profile depicted in the game.
The fittings follow Sucker Punch’s design in standard form: tsuka wrapped in brown ito over samegawa, dark alloy tsuba with traditional motifs, matte black lacquered saya with red accents on the cord fittings, copper sageo, and burnished bronze habaki.
A piece for fans of Sucker Punch’s game, a complement for Jin Sakai cosplay in samurai armor (Sakai, Gosaku, Tadayori, and more), décor for open-world or samurai-themed gaming rooms, or a gift for anyone captivated by the game’s cinematic aesthetic. A katana that embodies the spirit of 1274 Tsushima.
Intended for collection, display, and decoration only. Not designed for functional use (combat, cutting, sparring, or martial training).

Time-honored craft. Masterful gesture. A one-of-a-kind, hand-forged piece built to last.
The blade takes shape beneath the hammer. Each layer of steel is folded and re-welded under heat to create a core that is both strong and flexible.
The steel is brought to high temperature, then quenched rapidly: this fast cooling hardens the edge and reveals the hamon, the wavy line that runs along the blade.
The smith hand-polishes the blade with natural stones of increasing grit, revealing its luster, its edge, and the soul of the steel.
Each blade is crafted by master artisans according to traditional forging techniques.
