For the price this is perfect. This is my second purchase from this website and I couldn’t be happier. This sword especially, came in very quickly with only around a week wait. It is perfectly balanced and for the price is very well crafted, probably even worth more. Though the reason I gave it a 4/5 is that it isn’t truly “battle ready”. If you hit this sword against another then there will be major damage, but for me this isn’t a problem because I use mine for mainly cutting fruit. Amazing product!

Overall, this sword looks great. The pictures on the website are pretty accurate and, if anything, undersells how good the sword looks. It arrived at my house in great condition and was well packaged.
The few misgivings I have about the sword have to do with two main issues I experienced:
First, was the fact that despite the claims of this sword having an "Extremely sharp hand honed edge" according to the site. Mine would not manage to could through anything. I'd equate it's sharpness to a decent butter knife before I described it as "extremely sharp". I can run my finger along the length of the blade with decent pressure and not have any mark whatsoever. This isn't a huge deal however since I don't actually intend on using this sword for any actual cutting, but the inclusion of that line on the product description page was a bit misleading in my opinion.
Second, and more importantly, is the fact that it seems like the sword seems to *barely* fit inside the scabbard that it came with. Upon drawing the sword for the first time, I thought that they had put some sort of lock or catch on the scabbard to keep the sword in it. It turns out it was not, and it just took an unreasonable amount of force to unsheathe the sword. It has loosened a bit over time, but the sword still takes a large amount of force to take the sword out and put it back into the scabbard (you can't push out the sword at all with your left thumb like you always see people with katanas do, you have to pull it decently hard with your right hand in order for it to move). This has already started to seemingly wear on the gold part of the sword that extends past the tsuba and goes into the scabbard. This will not really matter if you plan on hanging this on a wall or in a mount in the scabbard, but if people want to see the blade itself and you keep taking it out, then it will start to get scuffed with time.
So in short, if you plan on keeping this sword up on a display and either never take it in/out of the scabbard, then I would easily recommend this. If you are planning on keeping this in the scabbard and taking it out somewhat often to show people or to look at yourself, then you might want to look at a different one, and you should not expect this to be "extremely sharp" as the description says.
These issues may just be issues with my particular sword rather than a systemic issue with all of these swords, so do with this information as you will.

Very happen with my purchase. I was a little nervous because I know there is a slippery slope between a quality, very expensive katana and complete crap. And I'm not a sword expert, I'm not slaying dragons or trying to cut God, I just wanted a decent katana to hang on the wall that isn't garbage. This hit the mark perfectly. This has the weight, balance, and detail of a real, practical sword. I did eventually do more research into what makes the more expensive swords more expensive and it usually just comes down to minor hand-made details that only an expert might notice, whereas this sword uses more machine-built parts. Otherwise, the details are all there. With that in mind, I'm quite happy with the purchase and would recommend it to anyone who wants a decent katana without taking out a loan to get it.
