Today we want to share something many collectors and Japanese culture enthusiasts often ask us:
Does Supein Nihonto ship its authentic samurai swords and armors across Europe?
Yes, we do.

Supein Nihonto specializes in authentic katanas, wakizashi, tanto and samurai weapons, all personally selected in Japan through trusted dealers, antique markets and long-standing contacts. Every piece is original, unique and certified.
We do not sell replicas or modern reproductions — once a piece is sold, it is permanently removed from our catalogue.


Europe-wide distribution of Authentic Samurai Swords

Thanks to optimized logistics and experienced carriers, we offer safe, fully insured shipping to Germany, France, Italy, Belgium, the Netherlands, Portugal, Austria, Switzerland, Denmark, Sweden, Finland, Ireland and virtually any European country and across the world.

Each sword, kabuto or armor is carefully packed using protective materials adapted to its age and condition.
Every shipment includes:

  • Tracking
  • Full insurance
  • Authenticity documentation

Ordering a Katana from Germany

Collectors in Germany show a growing interest in Edo-period, Meiji-period and Showa-period swords. We frequently ship:

  • Signed katanas
  • Wakizashi with original mounts
  • Tanto pieces
  • Complete koshirae
  • Antique fittings and tsuba

Germany is one of the fastest-growing European markets for authentic Japanese swords.


France: a strong appreciation for Japanese Art

France has a rich tradition of collecting art and historical objects. Many French buyers trust Supein Nihonto because they seek pieces that are rare, original and difficult to find locally.
Antique fittings and masks are also highly requested.


Italy and Belgium: demanding collectors seeking unique pieces

Collectors from Italy and Belgium tend to value historical relevance, condition, signature and craftsmanship. For them, Supein Nihonto’s authenticity guarantee is essential.


Personally selected in Japan

We travel to Japan several times a year to source unique samurai pieces directly from antique dealers, specialized markets and long-trusted contacts.

This allows us to offer:

  • Authentic swords for different budgets
  • NBTHK / NTHK certificates when available
  • Rare pieces not found in other catalogues
  • True historical artefacts withdrawn from the Japanese market

Personal assistance anywhere in Europe

Wherever you live, we guide you through the process of choosing the right piece for your collection, offering support on:

  • Documentation
  • Transport and insurance
  • Sword mounts
  • Era and condition
  • Certificates and appraisal
  • Historical value
