Sword over all is great quality for the price. Super sharp, beautifully crafted.
However the saya (sheath) is much brighter than it looks on the site, almost like glitter. I was expecting a more forest green.
All in all very satisfied.

Authentic Japanese Katana Sword T10 Folded Clay Tempered Steel Real Hamon TK-JP-KT19135 . I am very pleased with the quality of this sword. Everything fits nice and tight, there is no blade rattle once in saya. The Tsuba (Guard) and Kashira (pommel) show no casting imperfections. The Tsuka ito (Cord Warp) is the best I have felt. All parts are of quality. Although I haven't used it Tameshigiri (test cutting), I expect the blade to perform well. Small negatives - first, be in no hurry to receive the sword...3.5 weeks for me. Second, the list of "Do not ...." with this sword seems excessive and sometimes humorous.

I could not be more pleased with my order of the pictured katana. First, the packaging was very well done. Order arrived in a styrofoam box wrapped in water proof yellow tape. Inside, the blade was in its scabbard (saya) which was in a clear plastic wrap for protection. Upon removing the blade, I found it inside of an oiled tubular plastic wrap for corrosion protection. Second, the scabbard had a beautiful, consistent coloration and was made of hardwood with gold fittings - classy. Third the blade - 5/16" thick at the crossguard (tsuba) tapering to 3/16" at the tip. The differential heat treating line was stunning. The blade was very sharp and the handle was also covered in clear plastic wrap for protection. What a great value - I will definitely be a repeat customer!

The Katana is Absolutely Beautiful. Masterfully made. The Blade is Razor Sharp and the design from the folding and clay is Magnificent. This is Exactly what I've been wanting. I was hoping the Sword Master who built this for me would have engraved his name like I requested. Thank you for forgeing such a Beautiful Katana for me

The sheath of the katana does not fit the blade, because the blade wobbles inside.

I have held a real 95 gunto military sword and this one for the money is an excellent reproduction! Very sharp, so be careful! The metal is high grade carbon steel (1095) which holds its edge! A nice collectors piece without having to spent serious money on the real thing!

This was a gift for my partner. He always wanted a sword since he was a child. When he opened up his gift and saw his beautiful forest green katana he jumped for joy! He was stunned at the craftsmanship and marveled at how exquisite the blade was made. I would definitely purchase another sword. I made a great choice by choosing True Katana! Amazing company with AMAZING array of swords to choose from!

Nicely made and looks good. Blade is nowhere near "razor edge sharp" as claimed.

The katana I recently purchased from TrueKatana was a thing of beauty! The timeframe on it was very reasonable and the engraving was a bit larger than I anticipated. The leather covered saya was exquisite and the steel was excellent.
The only concern was that I asked for the blade to be "ultral" sharpened.
We sell many katanas to martial artist competitors in Tameshigiri. Our katanas are usually rated by our BESS scale as 170 grams or less (As sharp as a double edged razor blade). We had asked for the "ultra" sharpness on this sword, but when tested, it came in at around 200 grams (closer to a single edged razor knife).

Hello and thank you for my recent order. I am very pleased with my purchase. From ordering online and the on time shipping and delivery date, to the product itself. The quality of everything, from the length, the weight, blade and attention to detail of the whole package was perfect. I can not thank you enough. This was the first time in a longtime I was completely impressed with a company and product overall. Respectfully, we hope this continues. We will be ordering from you again soon.
Thank you again.

From the box, it looked just like the picture but a little better. It’s very sturdy. The details are remarkable. This piece looks authentic, especially at the tip. The hamon is absolutely gorgeous. I love the look of it. I thought the back side was painted black and the cutting edge was grey. It could’ve just been the background reflection in the thumbnail photos. Nevertheless, it’s a very beautiful piece. I’m in love with the green wrapping, it’s a deep bold green.

The sword is a little veiled, and the tang is only held by one rivet and not two as in the photo. Otherwise the saber seems of good quality and the finishes are nice.

The Katana is good overall , the only things that I could find wrong with it was the blade rattles in the saya; the Katana was tip heavy and was a bit punishing after swinging it for a while. Despite the downsides the fittings on the Katana were tight and the handle wrap feels good in the hands. Nothing about this Katana is low quality. Overall the Katana was money well spent and you certainly can buy with confidence.

Hello,
I can really recommend True katana, the katana I recieved is in fantastic shape, materials are great, tsuka-ito is tight, koiguchi is really tight and well done so the katana doesn’t fall out, the blade itself is really well done and even without any defects.
Even the customer support is really good.
The only downside is that the katana comes without box, stand and even without the silk bag. But the money/quality ratio makes up for it for sure!

I’m extremely satisfied with my order. I ordered a higher end sword and it came fully sharpened and is extremely sturdy. This is my first katana, however I showed it to one of my friends that is a collector of swords and he too was very impressed with the quality of the katana that I received. I will definitely be buying another in the future!
