Ryūgan, the Katana

Ryūgan, the Katana from Epic Armoury, is a blade with presence. Designed for those who appreciate both elegance and efficiency in their LARP weaponry. Named after the “dragon’s eye,” it’s built for movement, control, and a sense of style that stands out without being overly loud. The silhouette is inspired by traditional katana forms, refined for fantasy worlds and fast-paced action.

This latest addition to the Stronghold Masters range has been streamlined and rebalanced, making it much easier to manage than earlier versions. Made from latex-free injection-molded EVA foam around a strengthened fiberglass core and featuring a Kevlar-reinforced tip to provide added protection, Ryūgan is built to withstand heavy use. It's ideal for high-intensity fighting due to its slightly thinner profile, while still offering the distinctive Stronghold softness and resilience.

Whether you're cosplaying at a con, posing for your next photoshoot, or want a sword that swishes like you do, this one does exactly that.

The handle features a textured wrap in true katana style, canvas cross-laced in small, squared segments for a secure grip and added comfort. It's a small detail that lends the sword a grounded, tactile feel, especially when used bare-handed or during extended sessions. The balance sits naturally between the hilt and blade, making Ryūgan feel fluid in motion without being too light for satisfying strikes.

Ryūgan's eight distinct colors allow you to match it to your gear or your character:

• Amethyst Purple, a rich, arcane hue with a touch of mystery

• Citrine Yellow, warm and sharp, like sunlight through steel

• Emerald Green, earthy and bold, perfect for wild and natural looks

• Gold, timeless and royal, with a commanding presence

• Noble Steel (silver), clean, classic, and confident

• Ruby Red, fiery, fierce, and impossible to ignore

• Sapphire Blue, cool and focused, with ocean-deep depth

• Shadow Black, sleek, subtle, and quietly powerful

Ryūgan is more than just good-looking, it's about feeling good. Light, strong, and full of presence, it's waiting for you when you are.
