I have absolutely LOVED every actual katana I have purchased from you and I love these unsharpened ones too! They're perfect to keep up practice without damaging my kickboxing stand on the off chance I miss. Cool swords! Thank you!

The Good: this iaito has a nice simple aesthetic. The blade and handle are well balanced and it is sufficient for beginner Iaido training.
The Bad: at this price point there are some compromises that have been made that I would like to see changed on a newer model. They are as follows.
1. The plastic saya is disappointing. Plastic shavings get stuck to the blade, there’s a lot of rattle, and even a cheap wooden saya would have been much preferred to plastic.
2. The edge of the iaito is kind of fat. This might be a good thing for beginners worried about stabbing themselves (iaito can still be sharp on the tip, even sharp enough to cut flesh or stab into something) but a thinner and more refined edge would have been better.
3. The handle wrapping is a little loose, but for the price that is expected.
Despite all these negatives the sword definitely allows me to train in a way that’s better than a bokken for Iaido and for that I would recommend it for a tight budget iaidoka looking for their first training iaito.

I really like this particular unsharpened katana. I went the unsharpened route to avoid damaging my kickboxing stand I practice swings with sometimes and am happy with the weight distribution as it's a bit lighter feeling than some of the sharpened katanas I've used in the past. This makes me want another for my other hand which I'll probably get at some point.
Thanks!
P.S. I wish you still had an Amazon store (maybe I'm missing it) so I can add your stuff to my wishlist

The katana is good-looking. Is too light for my personal preferences. I had to glue the small metal ring on the top side where the waist string runs through. It came off very easy. The blade as it is aluminum bends easily. In my opinion, it needs to be thicker and wider. That will make not bend so easily and give it more weight. Overall I am satisfied even though it is on the expensive side when it comes to the cost and came with no sword cover or bag.

This is the first time I’ve purchased a trainer katana and was well worth the money. This is a quality training tool that has given me the confidence to properly execute basic sword strikes, unsheathing and re-sheathing techniques, and ultimately appreciate the art itself! Excellent trainer, looking forward to hopefully getting a real one- if my wife lets me:(

Katana was just as described, great detail to workmanship and good quality from what I can see. Not as light as I thought it would be but still much lighter than my other steel swords. This sword will be used for performing katas that require spinning and twirling.
Will show it to students to see if they like it, then will order more.

-Overall, a little too light for me.

Great practice sword. Few minor cosmetic issues, but it's a practice sword that is likely to get nicked up anyway. Would purchase again.

overall experience:
website is easy to use, has an extremely wide selection, and explanations for different product types. i was a bit skeptical of the advertisements and customer reviews, but TrueKatana is legit. every sword they advertise is exactly how it appears when delivered; these swords are great for cosplay and iaido/iaijustu.
for sharp, “battle-ready” swords, they are reviewed to not be the sharpest or most effective for regular sharp use. however you’re better off spending more for a better piece that will last longer because TrueKatana is more for display anyways
my personal order: i ordered an aluminum non-sharp katana for practice and display; it’s a solid piece that is assembled with nice quality. would order again if ever interested in a second one. i was able to track my order as well all throughout the process
TL;DR: very honest advertisement for nice blades at reasonable prices. you get what you order. but don’t expect an amazing cutting/sharp sword; spend more money on a better sword for those purposes
