Note: Katana arrived in styrofoam without an outer box and had some smudges on the handle that needed to be cleaned. However, it is great quality, arrived in a timely manner and overall, very happy with my purchase. Received many compliments.

Handmade Aluminum Blade Blunt Unsharpened Practice Katana For Beginner Training

I really like this particular unsharpened katana. I went the unsharpened route to avoid damaging my kickboxing stand I practice swings with sometimes and am happy with the weight distribution as it's a bit lighter feeling than some of the sharpened katanas I've used in the past. This makes me want another for my other hand which I'll probably get at some point.

Thanks!

P.S. I wish you still had an Amazon store (maybe I'm missing it) so I can add your stuff to my wishlist

Decent for the money. Had to glue some stuff back together, but not a huge deal. Good enough for training purposes and is sufficiently whimsical.

The shipping was fast- I believe it was at my door 5 days from when I placed the order.
As for the katana, the Saya is plastic and the blade is aluminum, making it extremely light weight and easy to wield. I've only had it for a day and done some basic drawing/drills with it. Admittedly I am concerned about how it will hold up to even light contact, so time will tell.
For now I am happy with it, but the price does seem high for a practice weapon (based on the plethora of "sharp" edged, and probably poor quality, weapons I could have gotten for a fraction of the price). If I can get a couple years of use out of it, I'd say it was worth it.

The ordering process and the shipping were quick, and while the katana is nicely weighted, I have to admit that I'm a little disappointed in the quality of the piece. It doesn't slide easily out of the Saya and there are rough, somewhat unfinished edges on the Tsuba. As a secondary training sword, it'll be fine, I guess.

Great sword and super fast shipping. The sword is really light and will be great to use to practice tricks.

A great katana with good weight for practice.
I've been looking for a dull, yet rightly weighted katana to practice Iaido with at home and this one hit the spot. The white coat does wear off somewhat quickly when sheathing, but as this is a training tool, wear and tear is expected.
Overall I'm quite satisfied with the design and quality of the katana.

Paint on the katana blade was scratched and after a few draws from the plastic Saya it received more scratches. The koiguchi was incredibly tight.
Other than that it arrived quickly and will make a good practice katana. It feels good in the hand.
Next time I would not get the painted blades.

The Iaito is incredible no rattling and every thing is well put together the only thing I didn't like was the saya made from hard plastic

Excellent quality! Fast shipping! Will definitely order again!

Katana was just as described, great detail to workmanship and good quality from what I can see. Not as light as I thought it would be but still much lighter than my other steel swords. This sword will be used for performing katas that require spinning and twirling.

Will show it to students to see if they like it, then will order more.

The sword is exceptionally well made! My son loves it!

However, we never received the wall mount I ordered with it.

Very well built, very easy to use for Iaido. The only thing I was surprised on was that the Habaki had a lot of wear on it which was strange for a new item but it doesn’t affect the use of the sword in any way.

The product arrived in a timely fashion, and in excellent condition. Although it appears darker, in person, than expected, it is true to the design shown on the website and it looks amazing.
