Raven Forge And Ubisoft Announce Full-Scale Replica’s of Yasuke’s Wakizashi & Naoe’s Tantō

by

Raven Forge have announced two brand-new full-scale replica swords from Assassin’s Creed Shadows.

In the game “Assassin’s Creed Shadows”, you can now pre-order both the swords of Yasuke (Wakizashi) and Naoe, with Naoe’s Tantō priced at £139.99 and Yasuke’s Wakizashi at £199.99.

In other words, it’s not the first time Raven Forge has created a life-size copy for the Assassin’s Creed series. Last year, they announced plans to build a full-scale replica of Altaïr’s sword from the initial game.

Yasuke’s Wakizashi 

The wakizashi, a highly respected side sword of the samurai, was usually carried together with a katana – a symbol representing their status, responsibilities, and abilities. This remarkable replica boasts an elaborately wrapped fake rayskin handle and scabbard, unique menuki (ornaments adorning the handle), and a tsuba patterned after the Oda clan’s crest. Each detail has been carefully crafted to authentically reproduce Yasuke’s weapon.

Pre-order Delivery Estimate: Early August

Naoe’s Tantō

As a gaming enthusiast, immersing myself in the rich history of feudal Japan, I’ve come to appreciate the tantō – a weapon that combines functionality with status. This trusty sidearm was not just a tool for the samurai, but also a testament to the exceptional martial arts skills of the Onna-musha, the valiant warrior women.

This replica, crafted with utmost precision, boasts a handle elegantly wrapped in convincing faux rayskin and intricate menuki (ornamental handle adornments) that speak to its historical significance. The saya, or scabbard, is meticulously detailed, mirroring the grandeur of the era it hails from.

Production dimensions:

As a devoted fan, here’s my take on the product specifications:

I’m excited to share that this item measures 430mm in full length. The blade itself stretches out to 295mm, while the grip spans 128mm. The base of the blade is a robust 26mm wide. It features a full tang and boasts a weight of 425g. Constructed with durable 3CR13 – Tempered steel, it’s a quality piece indeed.

The edge on this beauty is blunt, designed as a prop replica. But fear not, fellow enthusiasts, we’re anticipating delivery by early August!
