Sageo have been used on Japanese swords for many centuries. The purpose of the Sageo is to hold the scabbard into the obi belt and keep it from slipping. It is also used at times to secure the katana into its saya by wrapping the sageo around the tsuka and tying it off. Another traditional use was using it to tie kimono sleeves back while training or fighting so they didn’t get in the way.
We will custom cut Sageo to the length you choose.
