Yubashiri Replica – 24cm Die-Cast Metal Katana | Permanent Desk Duty

Solid die-cast zinc alloy, 24cm (9.4"), 71g (2.5 oz) — that's the Yubashiri replica, shipped free worldwide by BlacksmithSONG. This one didn't survive the story — an enemy's rust-based devil fruit power finished it off during the Enies Lobby arc, corroding it past saving. Ours doesn't have that problem.

What Is the Yubashiri?

The Yubashiri was one of Zoro's earliest swords, a black-lacquered katana classified among the 50 Skillful Grade blades. He carried it for years until Enies Lobby, where an enemy's rust-based devil fruit power corroded it beyond repair. Zoro later left its remains at Thriller Bark, the same place he picked up Shusui as its unofficial replacement.

Shot by Us

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. We shot the scabbard close enough to catch the thin gold linework against the black lacquer, and angled the blade so the wavy edge and cross-shaped guard both stay sharp in frame.

What You're Holding

Shelf Space, Honestly

At 24cm (9.4") and 71g (2.5 oz), Yubashiri lands close to the average across our katana lineup — nothing about it demands extra shelf space. It's proportioned to sit comfortably between taller and shorter pieces without looking out of place, and the black lacquer keeps it from disappearing into a dark shelf. The in-hand photo above is the fastest way to confirm exactly how it reads at your desk.

The Metalwork

Yubashiri is die-cast in zinc alloy as a single body, then hand-finished — the curve, the cross-shaped guard, and the wavy edge line are all set in the mold before any hand-finishing happens. The thin gold linework on the black scabbard carries through the casting rather than sitting on top of it. We lined up the whole set in our One Piece collection guide if you want to see it next to the rest of Zoro's blades.

Choose Your Display

Bare, or add a Small Stand (+$2), Large Stand (+$3), or Vertical Stand (+$4) — vertical works well here, letting the black lacquer and gold trim read clean against most backgrounds. A fan-made tribute to one of One Piece's more overlooked blades, unofficial and unaffiliated — paired naturally with Shusui, and part of the Grand Line Katana Vault's katana lineup.

Free worldwide tracked shipping gets Yubashiri to your door in 10–14 days if you're in the US, tucked into a foam-lined gift box with a 30-day money-back guarantee behind it. Fan-made, unofficial, and not affiliated with anyone — the full story is on our fan art policy page. No rust-based devil fruits allowed anywhere near this one, so it should outlast its in-story counterpart by a fairly wide margin.

Wado Ichimonji is the sword that's outlasted every other blade Zoro has carried — the anchor of the same three-sword rotation Yubashiri once belonged to.

Safety Note: Recommended for ages 14+. It is not a functional weapon.
