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.

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.

I really love the craftsmanship and wish I could get the full sword that matches. I recommend TrueKatana to anyone that is a collector and have told my friends of the company. Delivery of package was prompt and safely packaged.

This is a great tanto! Very well- made, with a sharp blade. The tsuba and grip are beautiful. I presume the sheath is made of wood. A great short sword for $80.00.r
Not a bad deal at all! Thank you.r

Nice, solid, hefty Tanto short sword. Seems to be well-built and includes a wooden sheath. The top of the edge near the tip is sharp, although; the further you go down the edge the less sharp it becomes. Not a bad sword for the price and steel used.

I’m no sword expert but my boyfriend is really into Japanese samurai so I brought this for his Christmas present. As far as I can tell the quality is amazing, beautifully patterned Damascus, sharp even edges and a good solid feel. The blade was oiled for protection and all the details are beautiful. It was thoroughly packaged for protection and delivery to Australia was quick. I personally had no issues with delivery or customs. Thank you so much for the beautiful knife!

My order came out beautifully. Very pleased with it. My only question is whether the swords are really battle-ready or not because the website says they are but the pamplet that comes with the swords says not to use them to cut, slice and that they are for display over. I bought these as backup weapons to my guns so if they aren't battle ready that would defeat the point. But they are beautiful indeed!!!

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.
