Handmade Japanese Aikuchi Tanto Sword 1045 Carbon Steel |
The tanto was beautiful exotic wood grain looks and feels great was a little loose in the scabard but used the old samurai wax trick and now it's good I'm not sure what the wood is maybe tiger wood but is super attractive and with a couple of coats of oil it is amazing blade is razor sharp I've already ordered some other pieces from true katana as there selection and unique designs are very cool and the pricing is good something for everyone at different price points I'm glad I stumbled onto true katana as for shipping this item took about a week

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

High-performance Pattern Steel Real Hamon Japanese Aikuchi Tanto Sword With Gray Scabbard |
An exquisite craftmanship, very sturdy, genuine materials and really beautiful.
Only one point of disappointment, and it is a major one for me;
like written in your description of this Tanto :
- "razors edge sharp"
- "battle-ready swords"
- "built for cutting" (?!)
- "extremely sharp hand honed edge".
I am afraid it is not true.
I own a Katana with those qualities and this Tanto is not near
to cut something at all. It is even dull at some points to say the truth.
....but 4 stars anyway because it is awesome for display.

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.

Main reason is there’s some white and blueish green crude all over the guard . I think it’s a great show piece and possibly a tool but I have yet to test it out forged in fire style

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 Japanese Samurai Tanto Sword High Manganese Steel |
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.
