It's a little tight in the scabbard, and it seems that there was plastic stuffed inside it that I can't get out. Also, it is longer than I expected for a tanto, almost a wakizashi. But it's a good deal for only a hundred bucks.

Handmade Japanese Short Tanto Sword 1045 Carbon Steel With Black Scabbard |
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.

The sheath is very loose and slips off if I put it upside down so it’s a little dangerous to use can easily fall out of the sheath

Really excellent quality. Especially considering the price. I wouldn’t describe it as especially sharp, but that takes hours and would Jack the price up.
I like it.
