This decorative sword was inspired by the Wado-Ichi-Monji, which pirate hunter Lorenor Zoro (jap. Roronoa Zoro) wields in the anime One-Piece. The Wado-Ichi-Monji belongs to the great grade swords and thus to the 2nd rank of the sword classification within the anime and manga.
It has an approx. 67.5 cm long, slightly sharpened blade made of high carbon steel, its tsuka is wrapped in a white grip band. The simple decorative elements on the tsuka and saya, like the cross-shaped tsuba, are made of gold-anodised aluminium. The black-coated saya is made of wood.
History behind the sword
The Wado-Ichi-Monji was forged by Shimotsuki Kozaburo in Wano and later taken with him to the East Blue when he left Wano. His son Koushiro, head of the Isshin Dojo in the village of Shimotsuki, kept the valuable family heirloom in his dojo's storehouse.
Lorenor Zoro, a distant relative of the Shimotsuki family, became a student in Koushiro's dojo after losing a duel against his daughter Kuina. Kuina and Zoro were in constant rivalry with each other and fought 2000 duels with wooden training swords. But after 2000 losses, Zoro demanded a fight with real swords. Kuina agreed and secretly borrowed the family sword Wado-Ichi-Monji. She also won the 2001 duel, after which she revealed her dream of becoming the strongest swordsman in the world to Zoro. On the following day, Kuina passed away unexpectedly. She was looking for a whetstone to remove battle scars from the family sword before returning it to its place. In her search, she fell down a set of stairs.
Shocked by this event, Zoro announced to Koushiro that he wanted to become the best swordsman in the world and asked him for the Wado-Ichi-Monji, which Koushiro then gave to his second-best student.
From that moment on, the Wado-Ichi-Monji was a sacred object for Zoro that he never ever handed over. It served the three-sword-style swordsman flawlessly and proved its worth time and again in numerous battles against increasingly stronger opponents.
Please note that this katana was designed as a collector's item or decorative object.
