Amazing quality. Everything is snug, tight, and very well-built. The tang is tightly wound with durable ray skin underneath. The end cap of the tang is snuggly fitted. The blade itself, while this will be used for display, is extremely sturdy. r
r
My main purchasing factor was that True Katana was the only company selling WWII katanas (olive color, rosewood, etc.), and all of the designs and effects are 100% accurate, with the reasonable exception that there is no stamp on the blade (but that's expected, because those forges did not make the blade). With that being said, for what this is, it's well worth the price. r
r
Also, shipping was very fast considering it came from China to America.

Great sword for the price. Could have been a bit sharper. But, I bought it mostly for display. It arrived much faster than I thought. I’ll definitely buy from True Katana again.

The sword is exactly what I expected. Very nice and well put together. It has a very display worthy look. r

The shipping notifications we lackluster in the beginning but after a week is worked out. r

I never intended to use this sword for anything but display and it fits that purpose perfectly!

Generally okay experience. The order came quickly, within a day and a half to be specific. The blade appears to be of good quality and made of decent materials. The top metal piece attached to the opening of the wooden part of my sheath fell off upon opening the package and unsheathing the sword.

I admittedly bought this sword and its shorter companion with the intention of cannibalizing their koshirae to be put on another blade, so I wasn't particularly concerned with the utility of the sword. However, I'll admit that when it arrived I was pleasantly surprised by it. The construction seems pretty tight, the blade while flat ground and through tempered has a pretty good geometry and feels solid. For the money I gotta say this is a really good buy.

Very beautiful weapon, came in perfect condition and is made very well.I am very satisfied with my purchase.

It’s a well made and beautiful looking sword, it’s one of the best I had ever obtained.
The reason for only four stars however is that some of the fittings became loose and one came unglued shortly after receiving it.
Despite this I would (and probably will) order again from TrueKatana.

Nice workmanship, but fits a little loose. I used to have an ‘actual’ officers sword, and it had a metal latch to keep the sword from falling out is the scabbard. Would be nice to see if you could replicate this. I would definitely buy such a sword: practical and pragmatic.

I recently decided to start collecting WWII Japanese swords so I purchased a Type 98 Shin Gunto reproduction from TrueKatana to see what these swords looked like back in the day. The quality of the sword was very good, very reasonably priced and only took a couple of weeks to arrive. I will definitely buy from them again!
On a side note, a few months ago I purchased a beat-up Type 98 Shin Gunto at a garage sale for a few hundred bucks. I found Ishido Teruhide's name on the tang as the swordsmith. The blade has been authenticated and now I know what it should look like when it's fully restored!

Wwii Japanese Army Officer's Shin Gunto Katana Sword Type 97 With Brown Scabbard |
Everything was as expected very professional . Made nicely and extremely razor sharp. This is something I would recommend to anyone looking for a real nicely made katana . I chose this specific style because I was looking for something that resembled a ww11 Japanese warrior sword and this does. All the way down from the design and coloring. Handle design. Thank you true katana for the nice craftsmanship.

Took a while to get here but was less than a month, the quality of the katana is amazing and very sharp and already got some lube on it or something and the packaging was protective enough got here with no holes. Very satisfied, already on my wall
