Last Samurai Katana

Product Description

Based on the sword of the movie: Last Samurai

Laser etched on the blade are the Japanese characters: 今古有神奉志士

It supposedly means “I belong to the warrior, in who the old ways have joined the new.”

However, some sites report it says: “Serve with dignity and honor” or even “Since Ancient Times to the Present, God is with those who serve with dignity and honor!”
