Tanto looked great, no visible flaws. Cuts regular paper well, has trouble cutting thin magazine pages.

Handmade Japanese Short Tanto Sword T10 Carbon Steel Real Hamon With White Scabbard |
I’m excited about my shirasaya tanto! It is small enough to go with me, discreet enough to go unnoticed, and sharp enough to matter. Well done! The safety warning card was good for a load of laughs.

I was unhappy with the matte finish on the blade. Also, the fit is extremely loose in the saya.

Handmade Short Japanese Tanto Sword T10 Folded Clay Tempered Steel Real Hamon |
i have never used truekatana before and i am quite satisfied with 2 tanto purchases i made from there. first off, was packed well and was protected coming to this country. the shirasaya tanto is beautiful and is very sharp-cant wait to test cut with it. As a true gamble i ordered a higher end more ornamental tanto and was in disbelief as i saw that the blade is probably the sharpest of any blade i have. I cant wait to test. i have no doubt both tantos are properly pegged, functional, and will perform! if i have one complaint its that everything should come with its respective swordbag. I will order from truekatana again for sure.

I really love the craftsmanship and wish I could get the full sword that matches. I recommend TrueKatana to anyone that is a collector and have told my friends of the company. Delivery of package was prompt and safely packaged.

Handmade Japanese Short Tanto Sword T10 Carbon Steel Real Hamon With White Scabbard |
The items is nice, scabbard fits and holds well. Good ballance. Grip feals great. I would take this blade into battle. The little details make this a 3 star review or I would expect a better quality for the price point. They used too much glue, it seeped from places leaving a bead around the edges. There appeared to be something on the brass before they blackened it, that rubbed off and revealed a untreated surface or blemish. Minor scratches on some parts of the tang part. And it radles, somewhere in the handle something makes a rattling noise when you swing it side to side or quick rotations in the rust.

Handmade Japanese Double Edge Tanto Sword Full Tang |
The Tanto came as described and looked even more incredible in person. Truly a work of art that must be experienced, a picture with my android phone won't do it justice. Functionally sharp as advertised, will be a great show piece to go along with my collection. True Katana never misses, their products have been stellar.

Handmade Japanese Short Tanto Sword 1045 Carbon Steel With Black Scabbard |
It came well packaged which is always a surprise nowadays and the presentation was great. The blades quality is nice a bit heavy but that’s to be expected for this type of weapon. The sheath is nice with the black speckled pattern I do wish they covered the bottom of the sheath with paint instead of leaving it with a wood finish but it’s minute. Overall 9/10 especially for the price.

Decided I needed a Tanto to go with my kantana it is just different enough to provide a nice contrast red black and gold for the tanto and red black and silver for the kantana. Thank you for the beautiful tanto.

The package arrived in good shape and a few days earlier than expected.
The Shirasaya Tanto TK-JZ-KT-L190016 shortsword appears to be well made and of good quality. I will put a final edge on the blade and polish up the brass fittings to bring it to it ‘s full potential . I am very satisfied.
