The Katana is beautiful! The Damascus pattern really stands out and the full tang gives the sword good weight and a feeling of stability. The fact that the sword arrived oiled and wrapped inside as well as outside, shows the level of care by the sword smith. The price was extremely reasonable and the craftsmanship is outstanding. The pictures on the website don’t do the Damascus pattern justice.

The sword and scabbard are both very well made and look incredible. The blade comes sharp and well oiled. The scabbard is leather rapped and the desin on it is textured, not just drawn on. The delivery came one day earlier than expected.

So this was a good blade for the price. The sayia is loose but gorilla glue couldn't fix. As for the rest of the sword.
Hamon line isn't a real hammon for T10, but it is there'ish. It will cut but it being dojo ready without a bit of maintenance, it'll get there.

Everything on the Katana was tight, Ito wrap, the fittings, tsuba, habaki. The blade does NOT wable. Heavy duty T10, for ridged durability, and a shape and elegant taper for the blade profile. Made for an excellent bamboo cutting sword.
The blade after cutting bamboo after bamboo, (28 stalks) had preformed above my expectations. It showed no signs of chipping, wearing, or anything that would affect the blade and make it go to failure.
It was right out of the box sharp and choji oiled.
I highly recommend this katana, a very skilled craftsman had assembled and forged this T10 blade. The Hamon is absolutely perfect and authentic.
Despite the reviews on Reddit, I was a little weary of dropping that cash on a sword like this, but it is for sure worth it.
I only hope that every katana on this site is assembled, forged with such skill and pride. For a Chinese sword made with Japanese traditional smithing, I can safely say that the katana you might be looking at is worth it.
They have excellent customer service.

Overall the sword is a nice looking wall hanger. But I am concerned about the quality of materials used. They used plastic on certain parts of handle that should be metal and I think the hamon is faked with an acid etch and not a real one caused by differential hardening like they said. I also have no idea if this is real T10 the fake acid etch is concerning if it is because T10 needs a quality differential hardening to be the heat steel that it can be. For the price it’s at I would expect at least no plastic on the sword but at least it looks nice on a wall.

Handmade Japanese Katana T10 Carbon Steel Hand Forged With Black Scabbard |
The sword came sooner than expected, around 5 days, pretty fast communication with support if i had questions, which i did. the sword is very sharp and came with a protective oil coating wrapped in plastic around the blade. looks great, just as advertised. my only complaint would be that drawing the sword from the scabbard leaves some wood particles on the blade. easily cleans off though, so not too big of a concern. overall, relatively cheap, good quality, great service. I would order from TrueKatana again. if you are someone looking into katanas but don’t really know where to go and don’t trust very many websites, TrueKatana is definitely a good place to buy from.

Sword came in ahead of expected schedule, and was fairly priced for the quality. The blade is sharp and weight is solid, the grip and sheath are a well built and decorated construction.

New member of the family! I love this katana and my backyard is now full of decapitated water bottles. I've drank so many water bottles and filled them with tap water to not be wasteful--it's so addicting, getting that perfect clean slice on the water bottles, slicing multiple water bottles at once, slicing the larger jugs of waters, slicing fruits--this t10 steel is so resilient and cuts through the targets like butter. Of course, this is my first katana, my swordsmanship is that of an ultra-novice, but now I'm invigorated to learn--and learn more of the samurai history--after purchasing this instrument. What is great about TrueKatana is their unique designs, all the different scabbards and the subtle details on the hilts, the tsuba, the sheath, etc.--so much selection! I was warned that purchasing a katana would activate an addiction and, well, no regrets! 10/10, this model, the blue blade, it's mesmerizing. Just taking it out of the sheath and staring at it 😆 ...Okay, I think this review may have come off a bit long but trust me, purchase a katana from here and you'll understand!

Love the sword. The blade, Saya, and ito all have excellent craftsmanship. My only issue was that one of the fittings as well as the sageo wrap was loose. Other than that can not complain. Worth the money.
