I was looking at the wakizashi and they’re a bit…tacky with shiny gold tsuba and patterned saya.Hello, if you are looking to make a collection and display it, I advise you to look on this site, they have many katana and wakizashi of good quality and not very expensive.
Do what?To block the sword, you can weld the sheath to the blade or fill the sheath.
Where is this company located?Without a blade, there will be no realistic weight if you ever want to show them to students.

As far as actual functional swords, I'd agree with you.Firstly, welcome to the site.
Secondly, I hope you're not involved in the linked company... we may have some very different ideas of "good quality" there...
Speaking as a sword user for more than a few years: Displays are for display toys. Real ones are kept in a locked closet. Only displayed in museums and even they are copies of the original.Hi all, posted this in the Aikido section as well, but thought a cross post may also elicit some replies here.
Additionally, I would like to have a sword display with both Katana and Wakizashi, but here's the rub. It needs to be relatively inexpensive (for display only), and would prefer either bladeless, or fixed (unable to remove). The reason is, our dojo is located at a school with multiple other martial arts, and there are lots of kids/children around all the time. The area we practice in, is the matted area in the back, and it is not always in use. We have a concern about a child potentially walking back there unattended and finding a sword and the inherent liability therein.
Does anyone have any ideas/suggestions/thoughts about purchasing a "safe" sword display for the shrine?
Thanks,
Mike
