Handmade Japanese Katana Sword T10 Carbon Steel With Sunflower Tsuba

For the price this is perfect. This is my second purchase from this website and I couldn’t be happier. This sword especially, came in very quickly with only around a week wait. It is perfectly balanced and for the price is very well crafted, probably even worth more. Though the reason I gave it a 4/5 is that it isn’t truly “battle ready”. If you hit this sword against another then there will be major damage, but for me this isn’t a problem because I use mine for mainly cutting fruit. Amazing product!

Handmade Japanese Katana Sword Damascus Steel With Black Scabbard

Beautiful and simple. My first shirasaya. I’ve only been practicing Iaido with it for a month now, so still learning to trust the craftsmanship. Nonetheless, a fine creation it seems to be 👍

Honestly was afraid it wasn’t gonna turn out how I hoped but it came out to be perfect, it’s feel so cool to hold and it’s weight is perfect. So happy with my katana. The blue blades are actually blue too, was worried that it wouldn’t be but it’s it’s 100% blue. Very happy thank you

Was questioning the many reviews I saw before buying it but I bought it anyway and couldn’t be more happy with the quality of it.

Handmade Japanese Katana Sword Damascus Steel With Black Scabbard

Reviewing, selecting and purchasing their swords is fun and easy, so have a great time buying your sword, but you must be willing to accept a bit of suspension of disbelief in the process that you are purchasing high quality swords of rare craftsmanship from a venerated master sword smith especially for swords that are priced below $200 that are clearly mass produced from a purely on-line company. I first purchased the Chokuto Ninjato straight sword with blue blade for $199.00 which arrived in 11 days, but I was not satisfied with several misaligned detailing on the blade that clearly disrupted the intricate look. I paid to have the sword returned and was promptly refunded my money after they received the sword. I then purchased a 1060 black steel katana with stand for $191.00. The katana arrived in 7 days, but the stand took 14 days because it was shipped from China. The katana itself is adequate, but it did slip out of the scabbard, and the handle hit the ground causing the blade to shift out of alignment with the Habaki. I will need to remove the handle at some point to realign everything and shim the scabbard to prevent this from happening again. These purchases were presents for my 17 year old son as an introduction into katanas, so the on-line experience was exactly what I needed and expected. Also, I was very satisfied seeing the joy of my son and his friends handling a real katana. For my needs and expectations, I will not hesitate to purchase another sword from Truekatana in the future; however, if I were a true collector of katana or was needing specific design elements, I would likely seek out a brick and mortar company and work one-on-one with someone to find a katana that exactly fit my needs and fully expect to pay much more. I gave 4 stars instead of 5 because the entire process was as expected for a purely on-line company, but it was not exceptional. I was particularly disappointed Truekatana did not check the quality of the first sword I purchased prior to shipping it.

Straight Sword, Handmade Chokuto Ninjato Sword Spring Steel With Blue Blade

This is a very beautiful and ornate blade. It is a little heavy and long for my personal use but might be perfect for another. It came somewhat sharp but easily gained an edge with a few passes of a stone. I aim giving a 4 because it states it was "Battle Ready" but its edge was not prepared for conflict.
