Katana sheaths don't usually fall off that easily. Most Katana sheaths hold it in place even if it's held like that. If it falls, then it wasn't constructed properly. However, it's best to just hold it correctly.
Lmao that's what I thought as well, but maybe because the katana is merely a replica and not made for an actual fight, that's probably why it's not as good as the real deal. Still though, it's pretty dangerous.
The blade should not slide out. Part of the function of the Habaki is to keep the blade snug. Often katana users will have to pop the sword out by pushing their thumb on the Tsuba. If your sword is sliding out it wasn’t made correctly
Exactly what I was thinking. They made it seem as if tipping the handle downwards slightly will make the whole thing slide out. Only case I see something like what happens in the video other than bad manufacturing/wear and tear, is they never actually fully put it back in.
even authentic katana can have loose fits, it all depends on the wear on the fittings. sayas are wood so they obviously get worn down by metal habaki, and katana aren't meant to be super snug that in itself is bad manufacturing
@@winky.44It's not meant to be hard to draw, but it shouldn't rattle and fall out easily either. It has to have enough contact that you can feel the Habaki contact the Saya, and also not have it bounce as you walk. If you want to secure your sword, the lace on tge Saya could be used to tie the sword down, to prevent it fallibg out when pointed down wards, running without your hands free to keep the sword in place.

True but theoretically its possible if you take the katana to a place with a different temperature and humidity level than where it was made it could come loose. Ive had both happen - katana gets stuck in sheath, and katana slides out too easy
I don't use a katana, but I use a similar sword, and I was taught that you hold it like this so no one can disarm you before you have drawn your sword.
seeing these things just fall out of the saya is making me chimp out how cheap are these things lmao even my dragonking modern wakizashi i could EASILY hold upside down and it would stay in the saya for as long as i needed it to!!

Real handmade katanas from japan dont slide out. If its slides out its poorly made sheath/fit. It should require some force to pull out. Youre supposed use one to hand pull the blade and thumb on the other hand to push the tsuba. If your blade slides out. Itll be terrible for horseback riding. Your blade just falling out or flying in and out of the sheath like crazy. 200 dollar katanas are just for display. Actual blades costs thousands.
@@Tuulos for most katanas, the habaki creates a little bit of tension that helps the blade stay secured inside the saya, but katanas are heavy, and it's not enough tension to fully lock it in place when it is upside down. The idea behind this is that you want to be able to draw the sword very quickly, and be ready to slash at a moments notice, just like how gunslingers want to be able to draw there pistol quickly.
Also, the first years, as you sheath, make sure the blade is up and not facing the groove of your thumb. It only needs to happen once guys. I bare touched my desk with that thing and it left a deep cut. A little bit deeper than I thought it would.
Most, if not ALL well made katana's will Not just slip out of the sheath. There is a reason at matches you will always notice that they will push out the katana with the thumb before actually pulling the sword out of the sheath.
Basic Íaîdō stuff right? Even us watching anime and not blade combat proficient know That much! : D I am still gonna not swing blades around thinking they’re safe cause they’re in the scabbard like some kinda physically active noob… yes that feels like the right terminology!
@@Fool408 and what are you doing thats causing that amount of wear and tear? Unless you're drawing it as fast as possible from the sheath it shouldn't be wearing out that fast but then again I wouldn't trust a katana bought from an online site to be drawn without it breaking immediately let alone it actually cutting something.
Mine does slip unfortunately. But, I haven't noticed the problem with sensei's katana, my fathers or even my replica. My real swords habaki is loose though. And I think the fuchi is too wide.
On the contrary I caught the round blade of a bread cutter mid fall. It sliced into my thumb a bit but not to the bone. I thank my reflexes because my foot was right below all that. Man this story is hard to believe if it didnt happen to myself.
High-quality katanas have a proper vacuum seal around the hibaki (small brass piece right above the tsuba [handguard]) that prevents it from slipping out. The sword should have a snug and firm fit inside the scabbard that can only be pulled out.
was about to say the same thing here. agreed. the only katanas I've ever come across that "fall out" of their scabbards are the cheap flea market type crap that are primarily display pieces. the proper "battle ready" variety that I've got and handled over the years have ALL had a solid tight fit that prevent the blade from just falling out.
I do own one and it’s actually a pretty scary thing to handle. I was surprised how easily the tip penetrated things which usually isn’t even the thing you see in videos. The blade itself is razor sharp and something that long, that is that sharp with a decent amount of weight behind it, just isn’t something to play around with. My respect for them went up tremendously after seeing what it is capable of up close. I keep it clean and in a stand and only rarely take it out for inspection.
UNLESS, ofcourse, the habaki is made well enough so that it won't slide out easily, but also not be a tight fit. Japanese craftsmen had a specialist for most parts of the katana and the habaki was a very important part as it prevented the blade from falling out of the saya. It's still important to hold the tsuba, but it shouldn't really fall out automatically if you tilt it too much. I could hold my katanas upside down by the sheathe and wouldn't fall out unless I'd do any rough movements.
Anime has been preparing me for this my whole life 👁️👄👁️ Edit: Well getting all of these likes was unexpected indeed. Also for the people in the comments it's a joke lol 😭
you just added a new fear in my mind, craziest part is I may never get a chance to hold a katana but still this fear is etched into my brain forever!!! 😂😂
Properly made katana should have a retention, caled "seal". There are even different techniques of breaking a seal. If your katanas slide out so easily, than they are not properly made
Exactly, you can use the thumb to push on the tsuba to pop the seal. Not to just prevent it from sliding out. As you said, a properly fitted sword will never “fall out”
Thank you, this was the reply I was looking for. So many people here are just consuming this nonsense, any authentic katana will have this feature. Saying the sword will just, "slip out" is pure madness, the thumb on the tsuba is also essential for drawing the sword in a swift motion
If you want form fitting, then you'll have to pay more for a custom. you're paying for mass-produced the shelf parts. Was thinking of wrapping the cling film around the blade and spray mould release, then pour silicone into the saya. Slip the blade in and let it set. But I don't know how the silicone would react with the carbon steel.
@@stevenstocker9873 Even cheap mass-produced katanas have a seal unless they are utter garbage. I have a $30 one that was the first in my collection, and it will not just fall out of the sheath unless it was not put back in properly in the first place. You could hold it upside-down and shake it and it wouldn't fall out. And again, only $30!

Like a lot of people are saying, well made katanas should not just slip out. They’re meant to be a snug fit specifically so that doesn’t happen.
That's right. Normally you don't use your thumb to keep the sword in its sheath, but to help your other hand draw.
True but theoretically its possible if you take the katana to a place with a different temperature and humidity level than where it was made it could come loose.

UNLESS, ofcourse, the habaki is made well enough so that it won't slide out easily, but also not be a tight fit. Japanese craftsmen had a specialist for most parts of the katana and the habaki was a very important part as it prevented the blade from falling out of the saya. It's still important to hold the tsuba, but it shouldn't really fall out automatically if you tilt it too much. I could hold my katanas upside down by the sheathe and wouldn't fall out unless I'd do any rough movements.

Exactly
there are two types of people , people with katanas and people with friends
and weaboos with katana
I have both, what does that make me then?
@@EdgeGilid you're obviously schizophrenic
Oi why did you delete that lmao

Also, place your thumb not in the middle, but to the right side of the tsuba, unless you want your thumb to be cut in half.

@@Ritam_ggis this a joke
Properly made katana should have a retention, caled "seal". There are even different techniques of breaking a seal. If your katanas slide out so easily, than they are not properly made
Exactly, you can use the thumb to push on the tsuba to pop the seal. Not to just prevent it from sliding out. As you said, a properly fitted sword will never “fall out”
Thank you, this was the reply I was looking for. So many people here are just consuming this nonsense, any authentic katana will have this feature. Saying the sword will just, "slip out" is pure madness, the thumb on the tsuba is also essential for drawing the sword in a swift motion
If you want form fitting, then you'll have to pay more for a custom. you're paying for mass-produced the shelf parts. Was thinking of wrapping the cling film around the blade and spray mould release, then pour silicone into the saya. Slip the blade in and let it set. But I don't know how the silicone would react with the carbon steel.
@@stevenstocker9873 Even cheap mass-produced katanas have a seal unless they are utter garbage. I have a $30 one that was the first in my collection, and it will not just fall out of the sheath unless it was not put back in properly in the first place. You could hold it upside-down and shake it and it wouldn't fall out. And again, only $30!
@PhoenixFyre13 , well my kill bill ten ryu bride sword, has this problem as does my koto katana, which set me back 90-100 quid each...
