All three of the tantos in my order are beautiful, and it's easy to see all the hard work and expertise that went into creating them. I expect to receive the 3-tiered bamboo display stand any day now. Thank you, TrueKatana, for a smooth transaction.

Handmade Japanese Tanto Sword Pattern Steel With Blue Saya |
Wasn't very sharp. The instruction listed not to sharpen, along with many other don'ts. The web site made me believe that this Tanto was of high quality steel and "Battle Ready". I really didn't want a display.

The tantos were acceptable overall. However one was too tight when fitting in the scabbard while the other was too loose. Otherwise, good blades.

Handmade Japanese Short Tanto Sword 1045 Carbon Steel With Golden Blade |
Very nice looking but somewhat cheap. The gold line is painted on and it’s white instead of the gold(ish) in the picture. The grip isn’t real ray skin either, just a plastic/rubber replica. Other than that it’s a nice piece. I haven’t tested it so I don’t know how it holds up durability wise.

Handmade Japanese Tanto Sword High Manganese Steel With Blue Blade |
Here's my honest opinion about this tanto.
If i'm not mistaking myself the describtion said "razor sharp". I don't know if that was typo because this was not close to that sharpness at all.
I'm 51 years old and I know a thing or two about sharpening blades., so this i can fix myself easily.
The fitting between the habaki and saya is under all criticism. It was so poorly made that if you tilted it the knife fell out. NOT very safe. Again this i fixed.
This was definately not made by an experienced craftman.
If i were you i had contacted whoever you choosen in China to sharpen up, or searched for another blackdmith
After all, this has to do with your reputation. I don't blame True katana. I blame the amateur that made my tanto.

The craftsmanship on the tanto is great. The weight and balance are very good and it looks exactly as advertised. The only thing holding me back from a 5 star review is that the blade is not secured in the wooden sheath and will slide out from gravity. A good addition would be a piece that holds it securely in the sheath. Otherwise great quality and very much worth a purchase!
