Placed the order on July 14th and received the sword today. Apparently when TrueKatana says "in stock" that means in stock in China.....still, the tracking was not bad at all, I could log on and get info anytime, right up until delivery. I admit I was apprehensive about paying this much for a Katana, but I have to say that it has exceeded my expectations and I am very happy with this purchase. r
The fit and finish is absolutely perfect, I cannot find a flaw in this blade, handle or scabbard. It even came with a neat silk lined case that I wasn't expecting. The Hamon is perfect, the blade has a beautiful taper and it is true to all the features of a WWII type 98 Shin Gunto. Anyone worried about the quality matching the price should buy with confidence, you will not be disappointed with this Katana!!!!!!

It looks great. The material is good quality and the making shows good craftsmanship. It arrived just in time when I expected. I never saw such a great wooden blade and such a brilliant and detailed handle for those tpye of swords. The wood is very light and also the handle, means it's well balanced as well. It's worth it, I would advice buying.

High-performance Japanese Katana Sword Melaleuca Steel Real Hamon With Black Ebony Scabbard |
Two very elegant sword stands - photo shows the double but the single is also excellent. Both pieces are simply constructed of very pleasing wood, assembly was easy and took only a minute or two. I am very happy with both these pieces and would recommend them. They may have been designed for katana, but I use them exclusively for Chinese dao and jian swords, and they are perfect for these.

Handmade Brown Wooden Blade Unsharpened Wakizashi Sword With Black Scabbard And Iron Tsuba |
Very beautiful and detailed craftsmanship. Love this for practicing Iai draws. Do not expect to use this as a bokken! The katana is very light and is not intended for dueling. However, is very nice as a showpiece or for simply practicing draws. I am extremely satisfied with this sword and the attention to detail. I am definitely interested in adding more to my collection. Shipping was laggy but very worth the wait. I highly recommend this to anyone learning Iai or just wants something cool to display.

Handmade Wooden Blade Unsharpened Japanese Samurai Katana Swords With White Scabbard |
I was pleased at the ease of ordering and the katana getting here before the birthday party. BUT. The damper on the purchase is the quality if the practice katana. The way the wood is attached to the handle is flimsy and is not attached properly. Its loose and looks like it will come apart if used to practice. I gave this gift and can't get it back to be returned so I'm stuck having giving a faulty katana and fell bad because of it. I wish you could send me a replacement as when the one I gave breaks (and it will) I will be able to make it right. PS. The katana does look nice. David Garner

The stand looked great. It was sturdy. However, it was a bit hard to assemble. The grooves in the wood were not cut properly. I ended up having to sand the grooves by hand in order to fit the pieces into the grooves.
