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 : )

Short Straight Sword, Handmade Hamidashi Tanto Sword High Manganese Steel With Blue Blade |
I simply love this katana.
I was surprised at how very well made it was, the size, the weight, and the sharpness although I'll sharpen it more.
The tsuka is wrapped in leather very securely and it's comfortable. The length is great for a sword of this weight and length. The kashira is pretty sweet as is the habaki and there's no guard, which I personally like.
I like that the blade doesn't taper but remains fairly wide throughout, it cut easily right out of the box to which it was wrapped great protecting it in shipment. The scabbard is pretty nice, wood covered and securely stitched with a clear coat over it for protection.
Overall a really nice sword, I'll be using it on my book cover.

Handmade Japanese Katana Sword With Blue Blade And Natural 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.
