I must say I am completely satisfied with my order and blade is well oiled and everything is sharp and in great condition I’m truly appreciative for the care and time that truekatana took to make this tanto. Thank you very much I will be doing more shopping with truekatana from here on out when I want another blade. I can’t wait until my Katana comes in the mail. Thank you!!!!

This is a great tanto! Very well- made, with a sharp blade. The tsuba and grip are beautiful. I presume the sheath is made of wood. A great short sword for $80.00.r
Not a bad deal at all! Thank you.r

An exquisite craftmanship, very sturdy, genuine materials and really beautiful.

Only one point of disappointment, and it is a major one for me;
like written in your description of this Tanto :
- "razors edge sharp"
- "battle-ready swords"
- "built for cutting" (?!)
- "extremely sharp hand honed edge".

I am afraid it is not true.

I own a Katana with those qualities and this Tanto is not near
to cut something at all. It is even dull at some points to say the truth.

....but 4 stars anyway because it is awesome for display.

The sheath is very loose and slips off if I put it upside down so it’s a little dangerous to use can easily fall out of the sheath

Really excellent quality. Especially considering the price. I wouldn’t describe it as especially sharp, but that takes hours and would Jack the price up.

I like it.

The package arrived in good shape and a few days earlier than expected.
The Shirasaya Tanto TK-JZ-KT-L190016 shortsword appears to be well made and of good quality. I will put a final edge on the blade and polish up the brass fittings to bring it to it ‘s full potential . I am very satisfied.

Really love it, one thing compared to the other swords I've gotten, the sheath doesn't really hold the tonta and will slide off sometimes especially compared to the katana I've gotten which will hold and stay no matter what
