The katana itself is glorious, absolutely glorious. A worthy piece of craftsmanship. However, when I ordered a “full-tang” blade, I thought the sword would he fucntionally sharpened. It’s essentially a blunt-edged blade, no cutting ability whatsoever.

T10 Folded Clay Tempered Katana with Real Hamon - Dragon Embossed Black Saya in Gold Alloy Tsuba |
Sword looks beautiful but did come with a couple rusty spots. They offered a little discount and that made me happier. The sword was sharp but not as sharp as I thought it would be from the reviews and description according to the page. Overall still a beautiful sword that looks well made!

Manganese Steel Katana with Golden Blade and Brown Leather-Wrapped Saya - Full Tang Collectible Sword |
I buy swords from True Katana because they are pretty okay. I practice tameshigiri with them. They hold up fine.r
What DOESN'T hold up fine is this company itself. They once sent me a dinged and pockmarked shinobi. When I sent pictures and pointed out the damage, they were insolent and rude and dismissive. They didn't even try to reconcile with me.r
I recommend performance Katanas from this company; but you better pray they show up okay because this company's customer service is complete and utter garbage.

I rarely leave reviews, but my experience with TrueKatana absolutely deserves one.r
r
I initially received an incorrect item with my order. Mistakes happen, that part didn’t concern me. What did matter was how the situation was handled, and TrueKatana exceeded every expectation I had.r
r
From the very first reply, their support team was polite, responsive, and genuinely focused on making things right. They clearly communicated my options, worked with my timeline (this was a birthday gift), and went out of their way to minimize inconvenience. Instead of rigid policies or delays, I was met with flexibility, transparency, and solutions.r
r
The highlight? They arranged shipment of the correct sword promptly and ultimately told me I could keep the incorrect item at no cost—no return required. That level of trust and goodwill is rare, especially in online retail.r
r
What impressed me most wasn’t just the resolution, but how easy they made the entire process feel. No friction. No defensiveness. No hoops to jump through. Just professional, thoughtful customer care from start to finish.r
r
TrueKatana has earned a customer for life. Their customer service genuinely rivals what I’ve experienced with top-tier Fortune 500 companies, and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to anyone considering a purchase.r
r
If you’re on the fence, don’t be. You’ll be taken care of.

r

Only knocking off a star because it got "lost" for a bit and took a trip up the west coast. I'm pretty sure that UPS should take the blame for that.r
As far as the katana, 5 stars for sure. 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟r
It arrived in perfect condition. It's absolutely gorgeous. Even more than expected r
And most of all, my son LOVES it.
