It came with in 6 days and it is a very beautiful work of art. At least the one I got needed to be sharpened better for it to be the “battle ready” it says in the description of the blade but other then that it’s a pretty solid piece.

1045 Carbon Steel Ninjato Sword with Black Faux Leather Wrapped Saya in Full Tang Construction Verified Purchase |
It was delivered relatively fast and discreetly. Normally my dogs bark at strangers but they were dead silent when it was delivered. The sword itself was and is in great condition. Full tang, legitimate manganese steel with a distinct hardness in the blade, some wiggle but noticeably less than other swords. Though it's not razor sharp, it's still sharp enough to actually cut things. A thing that might concern some folk is the hamon line. I won't pretend like I know everything. I am very inexperienced when it comes to assessing a katana, all of that is to say I cannot accurately discern whether the hamon is superficial or genuine.

Daisho Set - Manganese Steel Katana and Wakizashi with Black and Red Ito, Floral Alloy Tsuba Verified Purchase |
I'm no katana expert but I'd say its a 5/5
the only complaint I would have is that the little knicks near the wooden "stubs" on the handle, the white material seems to be cracked a lot around the wooden "stubs" making it look a little less clean overall for the handle but it is quite subtle and not many would notice it immediately. But it's a great first-time katana and would definitely buy again. It has a good price for the quality of everything else and I'm quite satisfied with the result.

overall experience:
website is easy to use, has an extremely wide selection, and explanations for different product types. i was a bit skeptical of the advertisements and customer reviews, but TrueKatana is legit. every sword they advertise is exactly how it appears when delivered; these swords are great for cosplay and iaido/iaijustu.
for sharp, “battle-ready” swords, they are reviewed to not be the sharpest or most effective for regular sharp use. however you’re better off spending more for a better piece that will last longer because TrueKatana is more for display anyways
my personal order: i ordered an aluminum non-sharp katana for practice and display; it’s a solid piece that is assembled with nice quality. would order again if ever interested in a second one. i was able to track my order as well all throughout the process
TL;DR: very honest advertisement for nice blades at reasonable prices. you get what you order. but don’t expect an amazing cutting/sharp sword; spend more money on a better sword for those purposes

Brown Blade Aluminum Iaito Practice Katana - Unsharpened 41-Inch, Iron Tsuba, Training Sword Verified Purchase |
Beautiful sword!
I was a tad skeptical buying it online without seeing it but man did you all deliver. The weight is perfect, the construction is sturdy and the wood work is killer. I completely love this thing and will be back for more.

T10 Steel Clay-Tempered Shikomizue Sword with Natural Rosewood Saya and Engraved Floral Crest Verified 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.

Handmade Natural Wooden Kendo Stick Bokken Iaido Practice Daito Sparring Training Katana Swords Verified Purchase |
Order was shipped and delivered with the quickness! When they say ready to ship they mean it!
Blade is definitely sharp so handle with care, the design is accurate and everything is fastened/secured for the most part.
The Tsuba (guard) has a slight looseness/can be just slightly juggled but hasn't affected the quality otherwise so still gets 5 stars from this guy!

Very very nice felt nice wasn’t damaged when it got to me only thing I would’ve wanted is the little chain on the bottom of the hilt but otherwise for the price it’s a beautiful sword

Ichigo Tensa Zangetsu - Bleach Bankai Katana Replica, 1045 Carbon Steel, Black Blade Verified Purchase |
This is a very beautiful and ornate blade. It is a little heavy and long for my personal use but might be perfect for another. It came somewhat sharp but easily gained an edge with a few passes of a stone. I aim giving a 4 because it states it was "Battle Ready" but its edge was not prepared for conflict.
