Frequently Asked Questions
What makes these samurai swords handmade?
Every production step is performed by skilled artisans: steel forging by hammer, clay application for tempering, hand grinding and polishing, and individual assembly of all components. No CNC machines or stamping presses are used.
How does handmade quality relate to the samurai tradition?
The samurai sword tradition was fundamentally an artisan craft. Each historical swordsmith produced blades individually, signing their work on the tang. Our handmade process honors this tradition of individual creation.
Are all samurai swords in your catalog handmade?
Yes. Every sword we offer is handmade. This collection specifically highlights the handmade aspect for collectors who prioritize artisan craftsmanship within the samurai sword category.
Can I see the maker’s marks?
Each blade shows evidence of individual handwork through natural geometry variations, unique hamon patterns, and hand-filed tang surfaces. These marks of individual creation distinguish handmade swords from machine production.

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

1045 Carbon Steel Katana with Red Cord Handle, Dragon Tsuba in Black Lacquer Saya |
Steven Moore

This is a gift so I did not do anything more than check color and and over all construction. Did not remove plastic wrap. Looks good. Gave 4 stars because you did not send me an e-mail saying it was shipped so it sat at the front door for days because I was gone.

The wakizashi that I received was absolutely gorgeous! The blade, handle, scabbard, and every detail was second to none…oh and it’s sharp as heck too, so don’t go fooling around or you’ll be admiring one of these beautiful weapons from the emergency room. This is my second time ordering from TrueKatana and both times it has been a home run! Love it!
