If you ever wanted to step into the world of One Piece and wield three blades like Roronoa Zoro, now is your chance to fulfill at least part of that dream. Proplica, a prop-making brand owned by Bandai, has released not just one but all three of Zoro’s famous swords in life-size replica format. The three swords come with a display stand, and some special features that set them apart from other replicas you may find of the swords.

Zoro’s replica swords were first announced on the official X (formerly Twitter) of Premium Bandai on December 23rd. They were also shared one day later on Christmas Eve by the X account for the One Piece manga. Additionally, a special video featuring the swords was posted on YouTube by BANDAI SPIRITS around the same time. All three show different images of the replicas, and showcase some of their special features.

Zoro’s Famous Three Swords

When Two Just Isn’t Enough

One Piece is a huge story encompassing countless characters, but Roronoa Zoro is one of the most crucial – and has been around since near the beginning of the epic tale. Zoro is determined to be the best swordsman in the world, and wields not just one but three swords. All three of Zoro’s swords have a name (at this point in the story), along with their own story to tell. The three swords are called the Wado Ichimonji, Sandai Kitetsu, and Enma.

When Zoro first joined the story, only the Wado Ichimonji had a name. This iconic white sword is also the one that Zoro characteristically wields in his mouth, which can also be seen in Netflix’s live-action version of One Piece. Going beyond the live-action show, Zoro’s other swords have changed and improved throughout his journey. This especially applies to Enma, which previously belonged to the legendary samurai Kozuki Oden. Zoro is able to fight using all three swords simultaneously, though he doesn’t use them all unless he needs to.

Official Replicas of Zoro’s Swords by Proplica

You Can Wield Three Swords, Too


The three swords that have been made by Proplica are official One Piece goods, produced directly by Bandai. They are life-size replicas that are as screen-accurate as possible. The three swords in the set are Zoro’s current three, the Wado Ichimonji, Sandai Kitetsu, and Enma. The set comes not only with all three swords, but also a display stand, which impressively displays all three blades in their sheaths.

In addition to being screen-accurate weapons, the three replica swords also have a very special feature. They also newly recorded play dialogue lines from Zoro as well as Kozuki Oden, the previous owner of Enma. A sample of the dialogue can be seen in the YouTube video BANDAI SPIRITS posted of the swords. Of course, the dialogue is only available in Japanese, by the Japanese voice actors behind those characters.

In addition to posting photos of the trio of blades, the One Piece manga X account also posted a photo of Zoro holding the Wado Ichimonji in his mouth, which is exactly what any fan would likely want to do as well if they got their hands on the famous white sword. The X post from Premium Bandai also links to an interview with the staff member who led the project of making the swords, but be advised that again this is only available in Japanese.

The swords are set to release in June through Premium Bandai Japan, and can be purchased for 59,400 yen ($380 USD). Keep in mind that they are real prop swords, not toys, and do come with both special voice recordings and a display stand. Each sword also has a sheath, not just a naked blade. This may be your only chance to wield three swords, just like Roronoa Zoro does – but we don’t really recommend actually using them.
