Handmade Japanese Shikomizue Sword Full Tang |
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.

Blade is nice, but not very sharp. The sheath part (forgot what it’s called) is poor quality, and it leaves chips of wood on the blade when pulling it out

Great Katana! I recieved it quick. The sword itself has high quality and feels durable. While not deadly sharp it's still fairly sharp and can indeed hurt someone. I'll definitely be looking forward to buying more from this site.

This was my 3rd purchase from True Katana. But it's my first straight blade Katana (don't know the technical name) Very sleek and stylish. I love the simplicity of this sword. It came packaged well, the blade was wrapped in plastic and had a layer of oil to preserve it. Very sharp!!, feels good to hold and swing. Don't know if they make a set of this or not. I find no irregularities, no wobbling what so ever and it slides in smoothly. The Katana is exactly what they post on the site, just looks better up close and personal. Very pleased with this purchase.

Very clean katana, I wish some where the blade and the guard meet were cleaner, there was access glue or something but other than that, it’s fantastic

Beautiful sword. Love it. The only complaint I have is it doesn’t like lock it self into the scabbard it easily falls out. But with it always being on display I should have to worry it’s just the thought it could fall out at anytime was kinda concerning for a minute but overall it was what I wanted.

I don’t know much about swords but it was pretty dirty on the inside so I don’t think I can keep it in the holder without it getting brown dirty stuff on it. but the quality of it was incredible thanks so much for the speedy delivery

Beautiful knife. The only problem I have is that the blade is a little scratched when I got it, but besides that it is a nice knife.

Handmade Shirasaya Tanto Sword T10 Carbon Steel Real Hamon |
It is a nice waskizashi, but the blade looked soaked in oil/wet (could have been due to temperature change from shipping). There is some mild chipping on the scabbard where the sword slides in, and I'm rather underwhelmed with my purchase. I would like to return it, but the process sounds expensive and complicated (I am in the US).
