This one is a great find. Beautiful build quality and also very affordable. It caught my eye emediately on the website, ordered it and when it arrived in almost less than a week I was not disappointed. The weight of it is awesome, really feels strong in hand. The sleek simple bamboo design is top notch also . This sword took me back to my days in Okinawa, Japan thanks True Katana! When it arrived there was a couple cracks in my scabbard causing it to release a little loosely but I addressed it with TrueKatana Customer service and they sent me a new scabbard free of charge! Best customer service ever! Sent an email with a couple pictures and Fiona responded promptly within 24 hrs. Very pleased with the TrueKatana brand so far! Looking forward to my next purchase. THANKS!!

I don’t know much about swords but it was pretty dirty on the inside so I don’t think I can keep it in the holder without it getting brown dirty stuff on it. but the quality of it was incredible thanks so much for the speedy delivery

I love this katana, It is very pleasing to the eye.
This black Bamboo Shirasaya is surprisingly made very well, it is handmade with a full tang that is made of 1045 carbon steel.
The tsuka or handle is fitted very tightly and does not move at all and is thin but fits nicely in the hand/s.
The habaki fits very well and isn't loose, the blade is pretty sharp and will cut but I'll put a much better edge on it with a wet stone and leather strop it will definitely take a fine razor edge.
The kissaki (tip) is done well and cleanly and easily penetrates cardboard, straw, and pigskin (yes I tried it).
The hamon or wave pattern made by clay differently treating it, is prounced enough to see and looks good, it fits good in the saya (scabbard) but could be a bit tighter I'll fix that with a thin shim. No biggie.
Overall this is a really nice Shirasaya and will be a great addition to my Japanese sword collection, it's well worth the money at this price.

I was surprised at the level of craftmanship for my first time buying a blade online. It's a solid build; quality blade that's VERY sharp and balanced.

Attention to detail an blade construction is very well an impressive I have not tested it as of yet. If it cuts and holds up to what the say worth every penny an some this is the 3 sword I have ordered from them an it is highly addicting because of the quality. I’m actually running out of space to place them.

Blade is curved about 6 inches from the tip, not bad but noticeable.
