Build quality is lacking in some areas. r
r
Packaging is terrible. It comes in a taped up Styrofoam container instead of a wooden or cardboard box. Its from China, but that's expected.r
r
The katana itself is decent and sharp.r
The outer finish on the saya is nice and looks exactly like the pictures.r
r
However, it was extremely hard to remove the katana from the saya, due to the habaki area getting stuck. I ended up having to lightly sand down the koiguchi area once I eventually got the katana out of the saya.r
r
Moreover, the blade rattles in the saya, which I'm not sure how I'm going to fix yet.

Handmade Japanese Katana Sword T10 Folded Clay Tempered Steel Real Hamon With Black Scabbard |
Nice solid blade. Arrived quite sharp and with a bit of oil applied which is nice. Only flaw is the blade fits quite tightly into the shirasaya (scabbard) right at the tsuba but nothing a bit of light sanding won't fix (which i plan to do). Nice beginner iadio training blade, it also looks beautiful in person.

A great katana with good weight for practice.
I've been looking for a dull, yet rightly weighted katana to practice Iaido with at home and this one hit the spot. The white coat does wear off somewhat quickly when sheathing, but as this is a training tool, wear and tear is expected.
Overall I'm quite satisfied with the design and quality of the katana.

Handmade Japanese Katana Sword With Black Blade And Scabbard |
Well I can say that the sword is a work of art with out a doubt I can also say that it is made of cheaper parts besides the metal that I ordered. The craftsmanship is not to bad but not incredible. It is good for its price range. But I can't see myself using it to learn any new skills.
On a different note there was a bit of shipping damage SO PLEASE be
warned!

This is the 4th sword ordered from TrueKatana. Everyone of them has been of high quality with fine detailed work. I believe some of the best work in the field for the price. The art work on this ninjato is fabulous. Will always look to them for my next purchase.

Got what I paid for.
279 plus a coupon was pretty good value for what I got. Their was a few problems to be expected from a cheaper Katana but the pros outweigh the cons in this scenario. And what I received was a beautiful Katana without a doubt.

Can only peak at it since it is a gift for my son and I don't want to fully open it. But looks great from what I can tell.

Overall the product itself was exactly what I ordered. I seemed skeptical the the sight could provide high quality blades for the decent price, but overall was impressed with how it turned out. Took about two weeks to ship!

I'm no katana expert, however the katana sword by "True Katana" has a quality feel and look to it. The handle wrapping is tight and the fittings are nice. The blade is SHARP and LIVE. "IT WILL CUT". Delivery was pretty fast.

Craftsmanship is there. Not just the price. Edge geometry and handle built to last. Given my first wakizashi when I was 7. This will be a great starter till next time. Thanks guys.

Handmade Japanese Katana Sword T10 Folded Clay Tempered Steel Real Hamon With Black Scabbard |
Overall good replica Katana. These are nice for the cost. They are not battle ready and not very sharp. However, if you wanted a show piece these will do nicely. Keep in mind an authentic Japanese Katana will cost thousands. Some new katanas are 30k . One more thing, these are made in China not Japan. If you want a replica you will be pleased.
