I love almost everything thing about this tanto blade. While I could nitpick over insignificant details, my only real complaint is that the blade could be sharper, but bare in mind, I've been a professional cook for nearly 30 years and I'm comparing the sharpness to culinary standards even though I have no intention of using it for cooking.

Short Straight Sword, Handmade Hamidashi Tanto Sword High Manganese Steel With Blue Blade |
So, I ordered a Wakizashi, together with this absolute beautiful Katana, and they arrived today.r
r
I had a complaint about the Wakizashi, so that the TK-Team handled it a way, with that I am quite happy... so the customer-service is pretty super, as these guys take their Stuff serious.r
r
r
The Tsuka of the Katana is absolutely astonishing... upon holding it firmly, I get better grip than with other swords I tested, so I was positively surprised. The Blade itself is absolutely beautiful... it was a present for me father, and he is crazy about it as I am.r
r
Very good quality, feels just qualitatively very good... so I can only recommend it : )

The handel was glued to tang, and they had put a piece of plastic in it also. Took me 45 minutes to remove and clean all debris in handel. After reassembling, the handle was tight,so I don't know why it was glued and wedged in there.

Handmade Spring Steel Real Japanese Wakizashi Sword With Camouflage Scabbard And Iron Tsuba |
Arrived in timely fashion. Everything as described in many other reviews: well-packaged and preserved, with a heavy coat of oil under a plastic sleeve to protect the blade from rust. The katana itself is heavy, solid, and appears to be well-made. The edge is quite sharp, but probably not as sharp as some would prefer. This is easily remedied by someone who knows what they are doing. We haven't tried it on a pig carcass or anything yet. :) Will update should the opportunity arise.

Handmade Japanese Katana Sword With Blue Blade And White Scabbard |
The sword is a fine weapon, very sharp and light at 2 pounds. SF delivery was fast! I do question if the hamon is differentially hardened or mechanically applied. When reviewing the website and ordering there was nothing mentioning the hamon process. I would like True Katana to clarify this issue, before ordering any other swords.

Handmade Japanese Katana Sword 1060 Carbon Steel With Black Scabbard |
I rated 3 stars only because the type of steel (1095,1090, 1045, 1060) was not specified in the description of the sword. I bought because of high manganese content. Don't know the carbon content or manganese content of the blade. Sent an e-mail to True Katana but no response.

Originally sent item with different colors than the picture. Was told that the did not have the exact color as shown. I asked for a return. They sent a return shipping label. I sent the item back. While the item was in transfer, the sword in the correct color scabbard and handle inlays showed up on my doorstep. Happy that I got the correct item. Could have let me know that it was coming.
