Full description

The Michonne sword is a fan-made katana replica inspired by the blade Michonne carries in The Walking Dead, hand-forged in 1095 high carbon steel with a full tang and measuring 103 cm overall.

Michonne's katana in The Walking Dead

Michonne first appeared in the comic The Walking Dead #19 (2005), created by Robert Kirkman and Charlie Adlard. On television she arrives at the end of the second-season finale, “Beside the Dying Fire” (2012), played by Danai Gurira: a hooded figure with two chained walkers at her side and a katana, who saves Andrea from a walker.

The sword was not hers to begin with. Michonne later admits that she found it early in the outbreak and learned how to use it. In the comics she finds it in a neighbour's house.

In the third season she and Andrea end up in Woodbury, the town run by the Governor. Andrea wants to stay; Michonne does not trust him and eventually leaves alone.

This version is hand-forged from 1095 high carbon steel with full tang construction. The handle is wrapped in black and white imitation cowhide, the tsuba is alloy, the habaki is copper, and the scabbard is a solid wood saya with a traditional design.

Standard or Premium Edition?

The Michonne katana Premium Edition has the same listed size: 103 cm overall with a 71 cm blade. It differs in its materials: T10 carbon steel instead of 1095, a copper tsuba, a handle wrapped in white cotton over real rayskin, and a solid wood saya wrapped in genuine cowhide with a leather backstrap. Both sit in our high-end katanas, next to the Kill Bill sword, another screen blade.

  • Blade Material: 1095 high carbon steel, hand-forged
  • Construction: Full tang for maximum durability
  • Total Length: 103 cm (40.5 inches)
  • Blade Length: 71 cm (28 inches)

Questions about this sword

How heavy is the Michonne sword?

Approximately 1.2 kg. The overall length is 103 cm (40.5 in), with a 71 cm (28 in) blade and a 27 cm (10.6 in) handle.

What is the difference with the Premium Edition?

Materials and finish, not size. The Premium Edition uses T10 carbon steel instead of 1095, with a copper tsuba, real rayskin under the handle wrap and a cowhide-wrapped saya with a leather backstrap. The details are in the comparison above.

Is this Michonne's actual sword from the show?

No. It is a fan-made replica inspired by The Walking Dead, and it is not officially licensed.

Fan-made replica inspired by The Walking Dead. Not officially licensed.

Sharpened or not sharpened?

On most models, sharpening is optional and costs the same: when both are offered, choose Sharpened or Not Sharpened above. A not-sharpened blade is the safer choice for display and cosplay.

Lifetime warranty

Your katana is guaranteed for life against manufacturing defects: the blade (steel, heat treatment, geometry) and the original mounting (tang, tsuba, handle, wrap, saya), with no time limit.

Not covered: normal wear, damage from inappropriate use (cutting hard targets, impacts, throwing), lack of maintenance, and modifications or sharpening outside our recommendations.

The warranty applies to the original purchaser. To make a claim, email contact@katana-canada.ca with photos and your order number. It adds to your legal rights, it never replaces them.

Le katana est magnifique!!! Semble très bien construit et avec soin! La lame à de beaux détails! Bien emballé et bien protégé pour la livraison qui a été rapide. J'ai apprécié qu'on me partage les étapes de fabrication par email. Le katana est aiguisé, mais je n'ai pas réussi le test du papier. Néanmoin, je suis très heureux de mon achat! Je me répète, mais c'est une pièce magnifique!!!!!

Customer photo review of Katana Customizer

Arrived faster than expected, appears to be well crafted with tight fittings. Could be a little sharper, so bought some water stones to put some more work into it. Just wish I knew more about the steel used in the forging process. Not sure if I need to be diligent with keeping the blade oiled or not to protect it from rusting?

Beautifully crafted, fantastic weight to it and the feeling of...POWER in my hand. Pity I can't find a suitable replica for Rebellion or the Devil Arm Sparda to complete my collection but still a Beaty of a blade

The Customer Service responded pretty fast to my inquiries so ill give them a 5 for that. The Sword feels very custom. I love how it turned out. It isn't as sharp i thought it would be though.

Customer photo review of Katana Customizer

My Katana arrived promptly!! It was as beautiful as I hoped it would be. Extremely well crafted. I built my own and was not disappointed. I engraved our Japanese family name in Kanji and it came out beautifully. This will be a treasured piece to hand down for generations. So pleased with everything. Thank you.

Customer photo review of Flower of Fire Katana

I bought this set for my boyfriend as a birthday gift. Needless to say he was speechless and stoked. The craftsmanship, the detail and all together quality is insanely good. I got the cleaning kit and wall mount, 10/10 would recommend the stand. Only comment is that is arrived with a small nick on the tip of the sheath, other than that it is impeccable. Thank you to those who spent time and energy into these pieces, you are highly gifted! Will likely buy again in the future!

Designing the katana was awesome. A lot of choices to make .Shipping was incredibly fast and the katana is amazing and beautiful. Only negative was that it wasn’t very sharp but I’m a professional sharpener so not a big deal. Overall 10 out of 10!

I got this as a gift for my husband and he loves it. There were so many choices to make it truly custom, it was a lot of fun going through them all. There was communication throughout every step of the process which was greatly appreciated since it takes weeks from start to finish. I have already recommended it to a friend.

I love the Katana. A bit on the expensive side for what it really is but i can’t deny it looks amazing. It’s solid, looks really good and overall is a great item. I will attempt to sharpen it more in the futur because the blade was not sharpened enough to my liking. I recommend it. Mine took about 2 weeks to arrive from the day of the order.
