This stunning piece draws inspiration from the serenity of bamboo groves, reflected in the bamboo-themed detailing on its hilt and sheath. The sharp blade, hand-forged by master artisans, mirrors the resilience of bamboo, offering unmatched strength and flexibility. Its handle, featuring a bamboo-patterned wrap, provides a comfortable, secure grip, enabling swift, effortless maneuvers. The Bamboo Style Wakizashi is not just a weapon—it's an embodiment of harmony, resilience, and the samurai spirit. This one-of-a-kind artifact is a must-have for collectors, martial artists, and lovers of unique artistry.
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.

I don't have a pic of the sword only a video but I do have a pic of what it did to my thumb when I dropped it and reached for it mid-fall. The sword obviously came super sharp, it looked just like the pictures on the website. It cuts good (not just fingers) so please be careful. Cuts bamboo like butter. It's definitely carbon steel not stainless. The weight is good not too heavy but with enough heft it'll swing good. The hamon is beautiful, the saya feels good and durable. I've bought swords for about $200 that weren't anywhere near the quality of this sword. I got it on discount from the website, TrueKatana also upped the discount after it sat in my cart for a week so I couldn't pass it up at that point. Took about 7 days to get it even from outside the US. The only issue I've found is it needs two mekugi (pegs through the handle and tang) instead of just one. I got it for use not for show so two would've been preferable for rigidity. Also if you plan on sharpening you need the right stones to polish or it will scratch the blade. I felt good with my purchase, definitely got my money's worth. I will get another as soon as possible. Also I'm giving 5 stars because this is the first one I've bought at this price range and with only one thing I considered a con (the single mekugi) I have no reason to not give a full 5 star rating. I hope this helps anyone considering making a purchase.

For about 150 bucks, the quality of the sword is pretty good for it's price. However, it is pretty tip heavy, and the scabbard's interior was pretty dirty, with pieces of dark stuff being of my sword each time I draw it. I'm not sure if this was rushed, but just something to watch out for.

Nice, solid, hefty Tanto short sword. Seems to be well-built and includes a wooden sheath. The top of the edge near the tip is sharp, although; the further you go down the edge the less sharp it becomes. Not a bad sword for the price and steel used.

The sword is really nice. No complaints about the sword itself. But, during shipping, something happened that caused the guard to punch through the shipping material and get damaged.
Nothing else was damaged on the sword. It’s unfortunate that it happened because everything else looks great and it arrived quickly.
5/5 for the sword
3/5 shipping
