'''Takumi's Shinai''' (タクミの竹刀 ''Takumi no shinai'', lit. '''Takumi's Bamboo Sword''') is a [[Sword|Katana]] that is introduced in ''[[Fire Emblem Fates]]''. Eponymously named after [[Takumi]], Takumi's Shinai pays homage to his little-known skill with the blade. Like its Japanese name suggests, Takumi's Shinai is fashioned entirely out of bamboo and is better suited for practice purposes, a fact that is translated through its low [[Might]]. This fact is further reinforced through it being imbued with a property that functions similarly to the [[Mercy]] skill from ''[[Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn|Radiant Dawn]]'', where it is unable to deliver finishing blows to foes possessing more than 1 [[HP]].
