Hozon — Certified Swords for Sale
Hozon ("Worthy of Preservation") is the foundational NBTHK certification confirming a sword's authenticity, quality, and historical merit. Hozon papers verify that a blade is a genuine Japanese sword of recognized craftsmanship — making it an essential baseline for collectors. Many Hozon-certified pieces offer exceptional value and are actively sought by collectors building their first collections.
2,325 items currently available from trusted dealers worldwide.
Programmatic access: range and multi-facet queries (by price, blade length, certification, and more) are available as JSON at /api/public/listings. See /llms.txt for the full schema and filters.
