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.

Handmade Japanese Sword T10 Folded Clay Tempered Steel Real Hamon Full Tang With Black 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.

Excellent tracking info the whole way. Sword arrived securely packaged and in superb condition. Was bought as a present for my son after his final highschool wrestling season because a warrior deserves a good sword and now he has a great sword! We will purchase from TrueKatana again.

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!

Handmade Japanese Katana Sword With Blue Blade And Black Leather Scabbard |
The product is good however it had a strange musty smell. When you put the katana in the case sometimes it doesn't fit properly.
It is not the first time I buy here as you can see from the photo nor will be the last despite the inconvenience.

Handmade Japanese Tachi Odachi Sword Pattern Steel With Black Scabbard |
I bought this for my father in law who is a martial artist and loves weaponry. He is also a gardener and so the design on this suited him perfectly. This man only cries when he gets things made by the grandkids… although his tears were held at bay they were there as he looked and immediately started doing his sword forms. He had a huge smile so I think he loved it.

I'm decently satisfied with the quality of the katana. The only problems I've noticed is the sword is a little dull and the koiguchi is tight. The sageo is also messed up .

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.
