Frequently Asked Questions
Why combine katana and tanto?
Viewing handmade construction at two dramatically different scales reveals how forging techniques adapt. The contrast is educational and visually engaging.
Can I build a matched handmade set?
Yes. Select katana and tanto in the same steel type for a coordinated pair. Add handmade wakizashi for a three-piece set.
Are these individually forged?
Yes. Every piece is individually hand-forged. No two are identical, making each katana-tanto pairing unique.
What steels work best as matched pairs?
Damascus reveals the most visible contrast between scales. T10 shows hamon differences. Any steel makes a compelling pair.

Sehr zufrieden mit meinem Katana, die Saya ist schön, die Tsuba ein Traum. Das Gewicht überzeugt mit einer guten Balance. Die Klinge ist gut geschärft. Dies ist mein 2. Katana von TrueKatana und definitiv nicht mein letztes. Absolute Kaufempfehlungr

P.S. Der Versand nach Deutschland dauert etwas… bei mir 4 Wo.

Regarding my order,r
r
Overall I am happy and would order from TrueKatana again. I think they are a great value for they price they ask. A great gift idea for any man with a decent amount of testosterone.r
r
Could anything be improved..?r
r
I got a cut and paste answer to a question I asked, that wasn't really a real answer.r
r
Also when I purchased I got an email thanking me for the order and saying I would receive another email that would tell me it had shipped and approx arrival time. That email never came. But I got my very bad-ass sword pretty quick anyway, about the time I was starting to wonder.r
r
I would recommend this company, and will likely buy again.r

Amazing customer service would answer my numerous emails even before I ordered the Katana almost instantly.

The Tanto arrived in less than a week a was carefully packaged. As far as appearances go the item is exactly as pictured. The blue hue is brilliant and the blade is sharp. I will definitely be purchasing from True Katana again.
