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.

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.

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

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

Sword was as described personally the ito wrap was too dark for me but the munuki we're beautiful same with all the other fittings and all we're secured tightly. A couple problems though is that the blade doesn't fit perfectly in the saya so there's a little bit of a rattle and secondly the habaki is just pressure fit to the koiguchi so it's tight but not the tightest fot will fall out if you shake it too much while its facing down, but other than those two things the sword is awesome will be buying from here again someday.

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.

I love my sword! Great for Iaido or Kenjutsu training!

Pros:
-Hamon is beautiful
-Makes a nice swooshing noise
-Nicely balanced around the tsuba
-Exactly as described!

Cons:
-Ito wrapping could be tighter and cleaner
-Overall, a little too light for me.

This is a more expensive dull/practice katana than a lot of products out on the market, but totally worth it. Very solid build with great balance. A really excellent practice blade which closely resembles a katana. I have no concerns about really working out with this blade (have heard too many bad stories about poorly built practice katanas flying apart). Plus, the crazy fun pattern just makes me smile.

Great practice sword. Few minor cosmetic issues, but it's a practice sword that is likely to get nicked up anyway. Would purchase again.

overall experience:
website is easy to use, has an extremely wide selection, and explanations for different product types. i was a bit skeptical of the advertisements and customer reviews, but TrueKatana is legit. every sword they advertise is exactly how it appears when delivered; these swords are great for cosplay and iaido/iaijustu.

for sharp, “battle-ready” swords, they are reviewed to not be the sharpest or most effective for regular sharp use. however you’re better off spending more for a better piece that will last longer because TrueKatana is more for display anyways

my personal order: i ordered an aluminum non-sharp katana for practice and display; it’s a solid piece that is assembled with nice quality. would order again if ever interested in a second one. i was able to track my order as well all throughout the process

TL;DR: very honest advertisement for nice blades at reasonable prices. you get what you order. but don’t expect an amazing cutting/sharp sword; spend more money on a better sword for those purposes
