The Kagari Rokushisouken [1] are a set of paired twin swords with detachable blades. They are currently owned by Hibiki Kohaku.
These swords are short and thick. Each blade is made up of multiple segments and can detach from its handle through the use of a trigger. The blades come with a sheathe to slot blades into. Hibiki generally uses the Rokushisouken with one held in a reverse grip and the other sheathed, his hand resting on its handle. After certain moves or winning a round, Hibiki will detach both blades and reach for replacements.
Rokushisouken's segments are inconsistent, being shown as having as many as ten segments or as little as six.
Etymology
The exact kanji for Rokushisouken is unknown as its name has only been spoken out loud and never shown in written form. Kagari may be 縢り, which means darning (to sew up), or the less likely 篝, which means brazier, a type of heater. Rokushisouken is likely 六枝双剣, literally Six Sets of Twin Swords. The name could be translated as: Darning: Six Sets of Twin Swords.
