Handmade Japanese Shikomizue Sword, Bamboo Style Chokuto Without Tsuba |
This was my 3rd purchase from True Katana. But it's my first straight blade Katana (don't know the technical name) Very sleek and stylish. I love the simplicity of this sword. It came packaged well, the blade was wrapped in plastic and had a layer of oil to preserve it. Very sharp!!, feels good to hold and swing. Don't know if they make a set of this or not. I find no irregularities, no wobbling what so ever and it slides in smoothly. The Katana is exactly what they post on the site, just looks better up close and personal. Very pleased with this purchase.

Sword is solid and well put together, but the last 2 inches has a slight curve to the right when looking from the spine. Compared to the other 2 katanas I own it's noticeably heftier, but that doesn't mean much to me. The saya and handle are nice in my opinion and the entire thing feels pretty sturdy. The only issue is with the blade itself, but thats also the heart of a sword so even if its slight it's still noticeable

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.

It would get a full 5. However the blade rattled slightly when locked. Can’t be a Ninja with that much noise lol.
It is however beautifully made and sharp. I will need to order another at some point.
