Item History & Price
The story behind this sword" In Kill Bill Vol. 1, Beatrix Kiddo travels to Okinawa Japan, to find the greatest swordsmith in the world, Hattori Hanzo. Beatrix learns of Hattori Hanzo swords through her former companion, Bill. She finds Hanzo hiding in a sushi shop and asks him to make her a sword. At first, Hanzo refuses to make her a sword as he states that 28 years ago, he swore a blood oath to god, he would never make another sword again and hasn’t since. Since then, he said h...e has retired. He also states that the reason he doesn’t forge the swords anymore is that he has remorse for making “instruments of death” that kill people. Beatrix convinces Hanzo to make her the sword by reminding him of Bill, the person she wants to kill; who was a former student of Hanzo’s, and who was also gifted a Hattori Hanzo katana. Hanzo was reminded of Bill’s dishonorable actions with one of his honorable swords and feels obligated to help her annihilate Bill, and to forge her a sword that will kill him. Hanzo realizes that Beatrix’s desire to kill him is a righteous quest to right Bills wrongdoings. He agrees to make her his final sword and says that it will take thirty days. After thirty days past, Hanzo creates a special, private ceremony to honor the finished sword and its new owner, Beatrix. The ceremony included Beatrix, Hanzo, and a witness dressed in white robes and surrounded by candlelight. Hanzo explains during the ceremony, that the sword is his greatest creation ever forged. He quotes, “If God gets in her way, God will be cut.” Hanzo felt the sword was destined to Beatrix and called her the “yellow-haired warrior.” The sword was then placed in Beatrix Kiddo’s hands to begin her quest.
