Iaido is a Japanese martial art associated with smooth, controlled movements of drawing the sword from its scabbard, striking, cleaning the blade, and then replacing the sword in the scabbard. Today a blunted metal sword called an Iaito, is typically used for practice. Most are made of an aluminium-zinc alloy, which is often cheaper and lighter than steel, and meets the Japanese legal requirement that restricts the manufacture of swords.

Hanwei's Iaito (designed for Iaido drawing practice) features a blade that is unedged for safety and forged from steel for more precise weight and balance than an aluminum blade can offer. It is also maintenance free, providing a lifetime of practice without worry of rust or tarnish. Genuine Same (Rayskin) on the Tsuka, with a tightly-woven cotton wrap (Tsuka-Ito). The long tang is double-pegged for security. The fittings are decorated in a Japanese Dogwood motif with dragon menuki, and the handsome Tsuba is of an iron "sunburst" design with a brass habaki. Built for Martial Artists.
