The Grand Line Katana Vault: 11 Weapons, Weighed and Compared

30 Jun 2025 0 comments

BlacksmithSONG carries 11 One Piece weapon replicas: nine 24 cm (9.4 in) swords, Usopp's 16 cm (6.3 in) Kuro Kabuto slingshot, and Sabo's 22 cm (8.7 in) Iron Pipe. All start at $19.99, with die-cast zinc alloy bodies or frames and blunt, non-functional construction. Weights span 30–89 g (1.1–3.1 oz); Kuro Kabuto also includes elastic cords, a wrapped grip and a soft pouch. Among the nine swords, five carry a confirmed Great Grade rank, and five have belonged to Zoro at different points in the story. The two non-sword additions bring a different silhouette to the same shelf.

Here's the detail most katana replicas can't offer: One Piece actually runs a formal sword-grading system in its own canon, from Supreme Grade down through ungraded common blades. We checked every blade in this lineup against it directly rather than guessing, and the results below are sourced from the swords' own in-story classifications, not marketing copy. The two non-sword weapons are marked not applicable rather than treated as unranked swords.

The Full Lineup, Weighed and Compared

Piece Length Weight In-Story Sword Grade Starting Price
Shusui 24 cm (9.4 in) 68 g (2.4 oz) Great Grade (1 of 21) $19.99
Yubashiri 24 cm (9.4 in) 71 g (2.5 oz) Skillful Grade (1 of 50) $19.99
Ame no Habakiri 24 cm (9.4 in) 72 g (2.5 oz) Great Grade (1 of 21) $19.99
Kikoku 24 cm (9.4 in) 72 g (2.5 oz) Not ranked at all $19.99
Nidai Kitetsu 24 cm (9.4 in) 73 g (2.6 oz) Great Grade (1 of 21) $19.99
Enma 24 cm (9.4 in) 73 g (2.6 oz) Great Grade (1 of 21) $19.99
Shigure 24 cm (9.4 in) 79 g (2.8 oz) Graded, but no precise tier confirmed $19.99
Wado Ichimonji 24 cm (9.4 in) 82 g (2.9 oz) Great Grade (1 of 21) $19.99
Sandai Kitetsu 24 cm (9.4 in) 89 g (3.1 oz) Graded, but no precise tier confirmed $19.99
Kuro Kabuto 16 cm (6.3 in) 87 g (3.1 oz) Not applicable — slingshot, not a sword $19.99
Iron Pipe 22 cm (8.7 in) 30 g (1.1 oz) Not applicable — pipe, not a sword $19.99

Sandai Kitetsu remains the heaviest at 89 g (3.1 oz). Among the nine 24 cm swords, Shusui is the lightest at 68 g (2.4 oz), making Sandai about 31% heavier. Across all 11 pieces, the 22 cm Iron Pipe is lightest at 30 g (1.1 oz); the shorter 16 cm Kuro Kabuto weighs 87 g (3.1 oz). All 11 start at $19.99 and ship in a foam-lined gift box with free worldwide tracked shipping. Payment options are shown at checkout.

Five Blades, One Swordsman: The Full Arc of Zoro's Arsenal

Zoro fights with three swords at once, but he's carried five different blades to keep that number at three. Wado Ichimonji is the one constant — the sword he asked for by name after losing the friend who owned it first, and the only one he's never traded or lost. Sandai Kitetsu came the same way most of his gear does: he won it, betting his own arm that its curse wasn't real and walking away without a scratch.

Yubashiri was one of his earliest blades, carried for years until an enemy's rust-based devil fruit power corroded it beyond saving during the Enies Lobby arc. Shusui picked up the slack afterward — inherited from a legendary Wano swordsman's undead form at Thriller Bark, carried all the way to Wano itself, then traded away so it could stay home as a national treasure. Enma replaced it in his hand and hasn't left since: heavier than a blade its size has any right to be, and the one now completing his three-sword rotation alongside Wado Ichimonji and Sandai Kitetsu.

Four More Blades From Wano and Beyond

The other four swords in this lineup never passed through Zoro's hands. Nidai Kitetsu is the middle child of the cursed Kitetsu line — same family as Sandai Kitetsu, one generation older, and the legend says all three were forged by smiths tied to the Kozuki family. Ame no Habakiri is a matched pair with Enma: originally wielded together by Kozuki Oden himself, the two are the only weapon combination the story has ever confirmed capable of wounding Kaido, and the blade later passed to Oden's son Momonosuke.

Shigure belongs to Tashigi, a Marine officer who wields it with a signature quick-draw technique — and it's also the blade she was carrying the moment she first recognized Wado Ichimonji as a priceless meito rather than an ordinary sword. Kikoku is the odd one out in every sense: an oversized nodachi carried over Trafalgar Law's shoulder rather than at his hip, rumored cursed like the Kitetsu line, and — unlike every other named blade on this page — never given an official rank at all.

Two Weapons That Skip the Sword Entirely

Kuro Kabuto is Usopp's black slingshot after the timeskip. Our 16 cm (6.3 in), 87 g (3.1 oz) version pairs a die-cast zinc alloy frame with a white-wrapped grip, five elastic cords and a soft star-shaped pouch. It is a display collectible, not built to launch anything.

Sabo's Iron Pipe is the swordless alternative: a 22 cm (8.7 in), 30 g (1.1 oz) die-cast collectible with a satin-silver shaft, black collar bands and a right-angle elbow. Neither piece belongs in the story's sword-grading system, so their table entries are marked not applicable rather than unranked swords.

Where These Rank in the Story's Sword-Grading System

The grade column in the table above comes from a formal ranking One Piece runs in its own canon, from Supreme Grade down through ungraded common blades — and it's the one thing here that has nothing to do with price or size. Five of the nine swords — Wado Ichimonji, Nidai Kitetsu, Shusui, Enma and Ame no Habakiri — are Great Grade blades, the second tier from the top. Yubashiri sits one tier below at Skillful Grade. Sandai Kitetsu and Shigure are graded blades by reputation, but neither the source material nor our own research turned up a precise tier name for either, so we're not guessing at one. Kikoku stands apart from all eight: despite a reputation for being cursed, it has never been given an official rank in the story at all — proof that grade and reputation aren't the same thing.

Which One Should You Start With?

For the blade with the most history attached, Wado Ichimonji is the obvious pick — Zoro's first sword and the only one of his five he's never given up, starting at $19.99. For the highest confirmed grade with the most dramatic backstory, Ame no Habakiri pairs the only weapon combo ever confirmed to wound Kaido with a direct line to Kozuki Oden. For something no other piece on this shelf can claim, Kikoku is the one blade here with no official rank at all, despite the curse rumors — and for sheer density, Sandai Kitetsu is the heaviest piece in the lineup at 89 g (3.1 oz).

Prefer something without a blade? Choose Kuro Kabuto for Usopp's distinctive slingshot silhouette, or the Iron Pipe for the lightest piece here. Both start at $19.99.

Do the Replicas Come With Display Stands?

Yes, as an optional add-on on all 11: a Small Stand (+$2) or a Vertical Stand (+$4). The two new pieces also offer a Large Stand (+$3); check each product's options for the available styles. Vertical tends to suit the sword lineup particularly well, since several of these blades — Wado Ichimonji's white sheath, Shusui and Yubashiri's black lacquer — are meant to be seen from the side, and standing them upright keeps that profile facing out.

What Are These Replicas, and What Aren't They?

Every photo on this page is ours — shot in our own studio, of the exact piece we ship. No CGI, no renders, no supplier images. What you get is a display collectible, not a functional weapon: the swords measure 24 cm (9.4 in), Kuro Kabuto 16 cm (6.3 in), and the Iron Pipe 22 cm (8.7 in). Metal edges are cast blunt, Kuro Kabuto is not built to launch anything, and every piece here is recommended for ages 14+. These are fan-made, unofficial pieces inspired by One Piece, not affiliated with, endorsed by or licensed by Toei Animation, Shueisha, Eiichiro Oda, or any other rights holder. More on how we shoot and pack things on the about page.

This page now covers 11 pieces: nine swords, one slingshot and one pipe. Browse the linked product pages for each piece's current options.

One Piece Replica FAQ

Is this officially licensed by Toei Animation or Shueisha?

No. Every piece here is an unofficial, fan-made collectible inspired by One Piece, not affiliated with, endorsed by or licensed by Toei Animation, Shueisha, Eiichiro Oda, or any other rights holder.

Which of these replicas has the highest in-story grade?

Five pieces share the highest confirmed grade in this lineup, Great Grade: Wado Ichimonji, Nidai Kitetsu, Shusui, Enma, and Ame no Habakiri. None of the nine swords covered here is confirmed Supreme Grade, the tier above it. Sword grades do not apply to Kuro Kabuto or the Iron Pipe.

Why doesn't Kikoku have an official rank if it's cursed?

Because reputation and official classification are two different things in the story. Kikoku is rumored cursed and it's Trafalgar Law's signature weapon, but the source material is explicit that it has never actually been given a rank — unlike the five Great Grade and one Skillful Grade blades elsewhere in this lineup.

Are the replicas sharp or functional?

No — metal edges across all 11 pieces are cast blunt. Kuro Kabuto is also non-functional and must not be loaded or used to launch anything. These are display collectibles for ages 14+, not functional weapons.

How many of these has Zoro actually carried?

Five: Wado Ichimonji and Sandai Kitetsu (still carried today), Yubashiri (destroyed at Enies Lobby), and Shusui (carried until Wano, then traded for Enma, his current fifth blade). See the section above for the full arc.

How does shipping work?

Free worldwide shipping with tracking, a foam-lined gift box, and a 30-day money-back guarantee. Delivery times are on our shipping page. Payment options are shown at checkout.

That's the 11-piece lineup, weighed and compared. Browse everything in the Grand Line Katana Vault, or compare the nine swords with the other katana we carry in the Anime & Game Katana Replicas collection — including our Sword Art Online lineup in the Aincrad Blade Vault and the cursed tools of the Cursed Tool Vault. Prefer a single long blade to a full crew's arsenal? Sephiroth's Masamune is the other katana on our shelves worth a look — 26cm and the lightest thing in its own Vault.

For swords with a very different kind of body count, the Ashina Armory carries two blades built to permanently kill things that refuse to stay dead — including one the player can never actually hold in-game.
