I must say I am completely satisfied with my order and blade is well oiled and everything is sharp and in great condition I’m truly appreciative for the care and time that truekatana took to make this tanto. Thank you very much I will be doing more shopping with truekatana from here on out when I want another blade. I can’t wait until my Katana comes in the mail. Thank you!!!!

This company is great! This is my 4th sword from them, I even was fortunate enough to buy the Tibetan Warrior/Hunting sword that was limited. Had a full size katana, Wazikashi and now this Tanto. All exquisitely made and all are very durable! No need to show elsewhere, the selection is numerous and the prices are for everyone.

You get what you pay for!
Exactly as described.
Handle is on the cheap side but I probably only payed for the blade anyway!

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.

Could just be me but in the pictures it looked like the blade was a little wider than it was. Either way it came in and looks amazing.

Really love it, one thing compared to the other swords I've gotten, the sheath doesn't really hold the tonta and will slide off sometimes especially compared to the katana I've gotten which will hold and stay no matter what
