41" Demon Nichirin Fantasy Foam Samurai Sword

This was for my son for his Halloween costume. Was way better then I thought it would be. Good quality. Hes so happy with it..

My son has destroyed all of his old Nerf swords and we have been looking for replacements for a while. When he saw this, I was hesitant as it looked firm and sharp, but he knew the anime the sword was a replica from and really wanted it. This sword is amazing! Even his16 year old brother is caught playing with this thing. It is harder foam then Nerf, so we have set firm rules about playing more cautiously. After three weeks the sword is all in one piece, looks great, and no one has gotten hurt. Ordering another from this company for friends/siblings to be able to play too.

*Allow me to start off by stating that I have had this sword for about a month now and the images are not from the opening of the package. It came in perfectly painted*I am very pleased with this product as I only purchased it because of plans to attend a costume party as well as take a few photos with it. I did however not plan on buying a fake sword for my own collection and would've bought a more accurate and the actual sword if the time of the party was different, I guess I'll just have two swords for Mitsuri. This sword is also great because as far as I'm aware, you cannot take a real sword into a convention and this will be a perfectly safe and nearly accurate alternative.Quality- The quality of this sword is much better than I expected when paying the listed price. I do however want to note that if you are buying this, that the paint does in fact rub off if you take it out of the sheath too many times or if you hit it against something. I know this because my friends decided to use both it and the sheath as swords and have a sword fight and the aftermath was pink and black paint rubbing off onto the before white sheath. I did luckily have the right colors or paint to paint over the marks where the original paint rubbed off. Just be sure that if you want to get longtime use out of this product that you don't allow people to hit it against objects and that you are easy when pulling it out of the sheath and/or putting it back into it.Size- The sword is much longer than I had thought it would be, but I think this is a situation in which my height is the issue and not the manufacturers themselves. It's a great length for someone of average height.Sheath- This was my biggest issue and the reason for only giving this product 4 stars as opposed to 5. The sheath smells absolutely vile, unlike any product I have ever purchased off of Amazon, it smells like vinegar mixed with something more chemical. It is also very thick as the inside is made with a rather thick layer of foam, which is the reason why the paint was rubbing off inside of the sheath when I would use it.Hilt (Was not a big issue for me but might be for others) - This was also a slight issue for me as Mitsuri's sword in the show has a beautifully detailed hilt with hearts where the pink shows through, as opposed to the diamond shapes on this hilt. This however was something I knew before purchasing this product, but I was unable to find an accurate sword in time for what I needed it for. The hearts that make up the guard on this sword are also rather disappointing as the guard in the show are clearly hearts and these are quite flat and resemble a flower. The guard is also not attached to the sword itself and is very clearly made of a cheap foam material. This part of the review is mainly just me being picky about the product itself and this was something I had already known before buying it, I just wanted to add in that the guard is not attached and more cheaply made than the rest of the sword. However, due to the price I payed for this product, it did not affect my review on the item as well as the fact that it does photograph nicely. I will however be buying a more accurate sword for display in the near future.

Out of the box, I was a little nervous but honestly I'm super happy with it! I wanted a foam sword to take to cons eventually and it definitely works. When you get it, the handle stopper needs to be pushed through the blade to the handle (basically just put together) and then it stays and it's perfect!!! Definitely worth the money, and it even came 3 days early!!! It's thick too so I don't have a fear that it'll break. Definitely recommend especially for con cosplays of Zenitsu.

I bought this for my niece because she is a big fan of the anime. The sword does not look exactly like the anime but I love it because it is foam and safe for kids, as much as a foam sword can be. She is about 10 and has 2 sisters, kids being kids I did not want her to hit her other siblings with the sword but since it is foam I am not too worried. She loves it and it matches well with her costume.

It was advertised to come with two swords, like the character has but it only came with one. Otherwise it's nice and lightweight and sturdy.

So I was expecting a flimsy little blade of foam that would last maybe 1 or 2 outings. Apart from the lack of pattern on the hilt, it's well put together

This is the real deal as far as foam swords go. Its the sturdy sort with a little weight to it so it feels good to hold and wave about. It resembles Rengoku's nichirin sword really well too. The painted flames along the blade in particular are nice. I paired it with a costume for Halloween, and the sheathed sword fit nice and snugly in a belt, so it was perfect all around for what I was looking for: a cheaper option than a real sword but quality enough that I didn't feel like I was ripped off.

Too small, nothing like what was said in the description. It said it's like 27 inches in length but it's just too small like a kitchen knife.
