TrueKatana has adequate blades, primarily T10... best bang for your buck; especially for tameshigiri.r
r
When you order your sword, pray that nothing ever goes wrong because the company has ZERO customer service.r
r
I've ordered 11 swords from this company. Despite that, they NEVER tried to make amends for selling me a shinobi sword once that was fucked up beyond repair. When I lodged my reasonable complaint, they acted like I was full of shit.r
r
Any decent company would spare NO expense in satisfiying a good customer. Not TrueKatana... they know their customer base needs what they have so they punish you for it.

Handmade Japanese Katana Sword T10 Folded Clay Tempered Steel With Crimson Scabbard

I buy swords from True Katana because they are pretty okay. I practice tameshigiri with them. They hold up fine.r
What DOESN'T hold up fine is this company itself. They once sent me a dinged and pockmarked shinobi. When I sent pictures and pointed out the damage, they were insolent and rude and dismissive. They didn't even try to reconcile with me.r
I recommend performance Katanas from this company; but you better pray they show up okay because this company's customer service is complete and utter garbage.

The detail on the blade scabbard are incredible. I am disappointed with the lack of the chain from the anime at the end of the handle and lack of detail on the hilt.

Handmade Japanese Katana Sword T10 Folded Clay Tempered Steel With White Scabbard

Honest feedback: My first ever katana. Beautiful craftsmanship. Does look exactly like the image online, and an intense feeling of caution and anxiety occurs when I unsheathe the blade. Hilarious, but highly important instruction/liability manual......DO NOT LICK THE BLADE. DO NOT CHOP VEGETABLES WITH THE BLADE. I can only image some of the cases.

Handmade Japanese Katana Sword T10 Carbon Steel With Black Scabbard

I’d maybe make an effort to emphasize handguards. It’s a sweet item. I may have not chosen to even get it with a handguard but I also just wasn’t aware sometimes it’s worth considering getting one

Handmade Japanese Katana Sword High Manganese Steel No Guard With Blue Blade

Only knocking off a star because it got "lost" for a bit and took a trip up the west coast. I'm pretty sure that UPS should take the blame for that.r
As far as the katana, 5 stars for sure. 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟r
It arrived in perfect condition. It's absolutely gorgeous. Even more than expected r
And most of all, my son LOVES it.

Handmade Japanese Katana T10 Carbon Steel With Orange Scabbard

I bought this Katana as an 18th birthday gift for my son. He’s very involved in martial arts and things of that nature. He went and found the Katana and asked for it as his gift. We were actually blown away by the craftsmanship and beauty of both the katana and the wooden sheath. The Katana itself is gorgeous and so well made the attention to detail is remarkable. The wooden sheath is stunning and looks like a masterpiece itself. We quickly ordered wall mounts and it’s proudly mounted on my son’s wall in his room. It’s a stunning piece to look at and he LOVES having it as part of his decor for his room as well as just an amazing piece of what I’d call art! I’m sure he will be finding more on your site to order for future occasions and I will definitely happily purchase knowing we are getting such high quality goods.

Very good nice quality katana, although it will wear down quite fast if used for cutting. it is best to be left as display. If you love swords, you will not regret this purchase.

Handmade Japanese Katana Sword With Waves And Fish Style Tsuba

At first the katana its hard to take out from the scabbard so need to trim a little bit in the inside to loosen a bit. Then the piece of wood that is holding the sageo in the scabbard fell off. But all in all the katana is sharp. Good balance of the blade and when you swing the blade it makes a hacking sound, and what I like is the hamon of the blade with a wave like pattern.

Very neatly made and solid. My teenager collector was just delighted. Highly recommend!

Handmade Japanese Katana Sword 1045 Carbon Steel

Placed the order on July 14th and received the sword today. Apparently when TrueKatana says "in stock" that means in stock in China.....still, the tracking was not bad at all, I could log on and get info anytime, right up until delivery. I admit I was apprehensive about paying this much for a Katana, but I have to say that it has exceeded my expectations and I am very happy with this purchase. r
The fit and finish is absolutely perfect, I cannot find a flaw in this blade, handle or scabbard. It even came with a neat silk lined case that I wasn't expecting. The Hamon is perfect, the blade has a beautiful taper and it is true to all the features of a WWII type 98 Shin Gunto. Anyone worried about the quality matching the price should buy with confidence, you will not be disappointed with this Katana!!!!!!

High-performance Wwii Japanese Type 98 Army Shin Gunto Officer’s Saber Sword With Brown Scabbard

Amazing quality. Everything is snug, tight, and very well-built. The tang is tightly wound with durable ray skin underneath. The end cap of the tang is snuggly fitted. The blade itself, while this will be used for display, is extremely sturdy. r
r
My main purchasing factor was that True Katana was the only company selling WWII katanas (olive color, rosewood, etc.), and all of the designs and effects are 100% accurate, with the reasonable exception that there is no stamp on the blade (but that's expected, because those forges did not make the blade). With that being said, for what this is, it's well worth the price. r
r
Also, shipping was very fast considering it came from China to America.
