Shi Samurai Sword Letter Opener Set Wakizashi

Samurai weren't always the space-traveling, laser-wielding, mech-piloting adventurers they are today. In the past, they used to fight with swords and stuff. But seriously, we all know samurai are honorable, cool, and historically awesome. They wore armor and fought with swords and trained their mind as well as their body. They were the super heroes (and heroines!) of feudal Japan. And now you can have a little part of their legacy help you at work.


These specific metal bladed letter openers are based on the comic Shi written by William Tucci. They are replicas of the swords Anna Ishikawa uses to fight the Yakuza and avenge her family members' murder. It's sort of ironic that these letter opener swords are based on a comic book, which is printed on paper - as paper is the natural enemy of the letter opener. But that's beside the point. These swords are a beautiful and functional edition to any cube-land samurai's desk.
