This Tanto is simple and elegant. Just what I wanted. A couple of finish points could be improved, to be honest. The Saya, scabbard, had a small raised rough spot from debris in the finish. The point where the Habaki, ferrule, meets the blade at the Mune-Machi, notch at the back, is rough due to uneven surface match of the two metals. The Ha, cutting edge, had a bur. This was easy to remedy with less than five minutes of sharpening. Not razor sharp, but it will pop a few hairs. To be fair, the price was reasonable, it was handmade, and it was shipped quickly. Customer service was excellent for me. They responded in a timely manner and were very nice. This Tanto is well balanced, feels good in my hand, and displays well. I am happy with this knife. I collect knives and this one is a beauty.

Exactly what I expected. Perfect craftsmanship and value. I have 7 swords from True Katana and only one showed up on bad shape. r

The customer service people are indifferent assholes who won't help when something is wrong; but if your order is perfect, cool! Pray for good results, you may need it.r
r
One bad result out of seven is only about a 14% chance you'll waste your money on flawed trash. That's good odds!r
r
Don't resist the 86% chance to buy a good sword. The bad service and bad quality control is the chance you'll have to take.

Handmade Japanese Shirasaya Tanto Sword Damascus Steel |
The Tanto sword is high quality and well-finished. The package arrived quickly.
Unfortunately, the wood sheath arrived with a seven-inch crack along the bottom.
The crack is where the Tanto, when in the sheath, has the sharp length of the blade.
I intend to keep the Tanto because of the high quality. It is first-rate.
If another wood sheath with a black gloss finish is available, please let me know.
Thank you,
D. G.

Handmade Short Japanese Tanto Sword T10 Folded Clay Tempered Steel Real Hamon |
Very pleased with the Tanto; the Fitment and workmanship is excellent!
There are only minor 2 niggles...
There several small black spots on the silver tsuba (possibly paint , as
I could not feel an edge to the dots, which I would have felt if the plating was failing).
the second niggle...it is kinda sharp, but should have been sharper...
Minor, in my opinion...The Hamon is beautiful, The blade is well polished, and
the overall feel and balance is very good...
Will purchase from TrueKatana again.

Handmade Japanese Short Tanto Sword T10 Carbon Steel Real Hamon With White Scabbard |
Hate to give such a low star but, in the description it said sharpened edge and it was far from it... It has a very nice feel in the hand and has a very attractive blade. Both the Sageo and the tsuka are very nicely finished and fit well together. I understand for the price point it will not be perfect but if it says sharpened edge in the description the edge should be sharpened.

Handmade Shirasaya Tanto Sword T10 Carbon Steel Real Hamon |
I'm an early Iaido student 2nd year and I wanted a small tanto to complement the shinken.
I didn't want something too big like a Wakizashi but for a tanto it's on the longer side.
Depending on your hand size this is a single handed tsuka.
For really small hands you might be able to get both hands around the tsuka.
I like the red and black tint on the tsuka that's what attracted me.
It looks great and I feel like the craftsmenship on this blade is worth more than it's value.
Note: blade seemed to come in dry no choji oil appeared to be on the blade. So check to make sure.
