Great sword for the price. Could have been a bit sharper. But, I bought it mostly for display. It arrived much faster than I thought. I’ll definitely buy from True Katana again.

Sword is beautifully made. The shipping process was quick and I have 0 issues regarding the sword I received, however, the sword is not as sharp as I was expecting it to be, I'd just recommend getting some whetstone if that's important to you.

Wwii Japanese Type 98 Army Shin Gunto Officer’s Sword With Brown Leather Scabbard |
I admittedly bought this sword and its shorter companion with the intention of cannibalizing their koshirae to be put on another blade, so I wasn't particularly concerned with the utility of the sword. However, I'll admit that when it arrived I was pleasantly surprised by it. The construction seems pretty tight, the blade while flat ground and through tempered has a pretty good geometry and feels solid. For the money I gotta say this is a really good buy.

Love it, love the wooden sheath, first one I have that is not either leather or lacquered. Really like the blend of red and black in the blade. Overall very happy with my purchase. Got a few more in mind that I plan to buy from you guys at some point. Thanks again.

Handmade Japanese Sekiro Katana Sword With Red Blade |
I have held a real 95 gunto military sword and this one for the money is an excellent reproduction! Very sharp, so be careful! The metal is high grade carbon steel (1095) which holds its edge! A nice collectors piece without having to spent serious money on the real thing!

The sword is beautiful, and actually higher quality than I expected. Obviously refrain from hitting it against stuff, but it’s still sharp either way. I’m still amazed at the accuracy!

Excellent product, got delivered on schedule and with no major issues. A small problem was one of the rings on the sheath came loose, but thats easy enough to fix with glue.
Would absolutely recommend true katana for any other items. It looks great.

I really wish I could give 5 stars, but I received a damaged product. I was given a 25% discount, but I would have much rather had the sword in good condition than have some money off. However, the two katanas I got are still very cool and I love them, hence why I would want to give a 5. However, for the price I wish the condition was better.

High-performance Wwii Japanese Type 98 Army Shin Gunto Officer’s Saber Sword With Brown Scabbard |
I recently decided to start collecting WWII Japanese swords so I purchased a Type 98 Shin Gunto reproduction from TrueKatana to see what these swords looked like back in the day. The quality of the sword was very good, very reasonably priced and only took a couple of weeks to arrive. I will definitely buy from them again!
On a side note, a few months ago I purchased a beat-up Type 98 Shin Gunto at a garage sale for a few hundred bucks. I found Ishido Teruhide's name on the tang as the swordsmith. The blade has been authenticated and now I know what it should look like when it's fully restored!

Took a while to get here but was less than a month, the quality of the katana is amazing and very sharp and already got some lube on it or something and the packaging was protective enough got here with no holes. Very satisfied, already on my wall
