Decent quality but it would be nice to know that it shipped from china and takes 6-8 weeks to arrive and is only shipped in styrofoam and tape.

The sword is very nice & was packaged quite well. I like the weight & the blade is sharp.r
The only thing I seen was a hole in the bottom of the tsuka (hilt).r
I am looking forward to cutting with it in the spring.

Handmade Japanese Ninjato Sword With Black Blade |
I'm manly giving 4 stars on this Katana for one reson!! The blade unlike last two has a very slight curve, in about 3" for same distance from tip it curves in only about 1/16th possably 3/64th out on only 3 " so not anything major! A love my other perchased of the cane Katana which os very nice. I did make it look like a real walking cane as per last review! r
But this one, I also don't like the rubber clad Tsaba, so covered that and the shiny Kashira to bright / shiny and flashy of me. So that is covers to.also Tsuba has weak spots because of thinness to outside edge too.r
Not sure if Blade very slight curve is because this blade is a second or not.r
It has done me no good trying to contact seller 6 plus times, as I have never received a response! Even for a simple question. Decent buy for the money though!!r
As stated in other reviews ( you get what you pay for) mist of the time..r
Good price/ functional sword..

I like the sword. It is well balanced. It will primarily be a collectable on a stand.
I may practice a kata or two with it. Thank you True Katana.

Handmade Chokuto Ninjato Sword T10 Carbon Steel Real Hamon |
IPad Air4 for size comparison. It's beautiful, just like the photos. It has a hefty weight and feels sturdy. I absolutely love it and just need to get a display stand for it.
I didn't want to remove the plastic on the blade, as I don't have any oil yet to care for it, so I'm leaving it wrapped but I saw no chips, bends, dents, or scratches on the blade. It arrived carefully wrapped between two blocks of Styrofoam in perfect condition and tracking was easy to follow. Overall I'm super satisfied and so glad I bought it.

Handmade Japanese Shikomizue Sword, Bamboo Style Chokuto Without Tsuba |
I love this sword;the fact it came early on the Sabbath, I actually prayed over it and had it blessed. I love the color, the lightning, the sheath,the character of the blade overall regarding design, even the leather grip ,feels amazing.
It feels like a full tang in the blade, great weight for me and working on my forearms. Haven't done a cutting test quite yet but I felt the edge slide against my finger and I know for sure it's sharp, yet it didn't cut me to cause bleeding.
Awesome blade, I recommend.

Handmade Chokuto Ninjato Straight Sword High Manganese Steel With Blue Lightning Blade |
This was my 3rd purchase from True Katana. But it's my first straight blade Katana (don't know the technical name) Very sleek and stylish. I love the simplicity of this sword. It came packaged well, the blade was wrapped in plastic and had a layer of oil to preserve it. Very sharp!!, feels good to hold and swing. Don't know if they make a set of this or not. I find no irregularities, no wobbling what so ever and it slides in smoothly. The Katana is exactly what they post on the site, just looks better up close and personal. Very pleased with this purchase.

Very nice and well made. The sword stays in its wooden sheath until you pull it out. This was a concern for me as
I had ordered the same style sword from another company and the wood was bass wood. It’s a soft wood, the sword falls out of its wooden sheath on its own!!
So I was quite impressed with the construction of this sword from True Katana. It was exactly what I was looking for.

The items is nice, scabbard fits and holds well. Good ballance. Grip feals great. I would take this blade into battle. The little details make this a 3 star review or I would expect a better quality for the price point. They used too much glue, it seeped from places leaving a bead around the edges. There appeared to be something on the brass before they blackened it, that rubbed off and revealed a untreated surface or blemish. Minor scratches on some parts of the tang part. And it radles, somewhere in the handle something makes a rattling noise when you swing it side to side or quick rotations in the rust.
