Ninja Gaiden introduced us to the young ninja warrior, Ryu Hayabusa. In the beginning, Ryu's father (Ken) is shown doing battle with another ninja. Ken is defeated, and apparently dead. Back in Japan, Ryu discovers a note from his missing father, explaining his whereabouts. This is where his amazing journey to find his father begins. This Ninja Gaiden Sword is a beautiful design sword with the scabbard in black. The caps and the hilt are in gold colors and the scabbard has one gold ring on it. The handle is wrapped in red nylon ribbon which gives the sword a classy look. The sword also comes with a nylon back strap just like the one in the Ninja Gaiden Video Game. The guard has a beautiful design on it and are in gold color.

Ryu Hayabusa is a direct descendant of the Dragon Lineage; ninja warriors from ancient times who forged the Dragon Sword that Ryu now wields, who slew the Dark Dragon and sealed away the Evil Deities.
Through years of training, developing his ninja senses and skills, Ryu has become what is known as a "modern day Super Ninja". He advanced even further and became the legendary Dragon Ninja, like the ones who sealed away the Evil Deities in ancient times.
Ryu has an adept understanding of what is right and wrong, and in his own way is an honorable person, but prefers to keep such facts hidden. In fact, he is quite responsible, but presents an attitude of noninvolvement to the world outside his life. He tries to avoid fighting Jann Lee in the second tournament, and also tries to avoid Ayane in his quest to eliminate the Tengu and Genra. On the other hand, once involved, Hayabusa doesn't hold back, immersing himself fully into the situation. Finally, he is very philosophical on matters concerning the world around him (very much like Gen Fu), and seems to be well beyond in wisdom than his current years would depict.
