![]() A good trick is to pin your pattern down and draw the shape with a marker. I liked it, but it wasn’t long enough so I had a little trick, you see the red dots? that’s where I cut my pattern and added an extra centimeter so it was now 18cm long. I grided my paper and started drafting my pattern. The original tsuba (or guard) was 8cm but it wasn’t good enough for my design so I modified it. My katana was 101cm long, with a maximum width of 4cm at the base and 3cm at the tip and slightly curved at the end. ![]() As this is not something you find at home I wrote down its measures for you.

Drafting the patternįor the first part you will need: 10mm semirigid foam, a cutter, a rotatory tool, a marker and sandpaper ![]() That is why we are going to make our own foam katana. Unfortunately, you can’t bring a real katana to a convention. This time we are making something bigger, a katana! There are so many characters with katanas in anime.
