I don't have a pic of the sword only a video but I do have a pic of what it did to my thumb when I dropped it and reached for it mid-fall. The sword obviously came super sharp, it looked just like the pictures on the website. It cuts good (not just fingers) so please be careful. Cuts bamboo like butter. It's definitely carbon steel not stainless. The weight is good not too heavy but with enough heft it'll swing good. The hamon is beautiful, the saya feels good and durable. I've bought swords for about $200 that weren't anywhere near the quality of this sword. I got it on discount from the website, TrueKatana also upped the discount after it sat in my cart for a week so I couldn't pass it up at that point. Took about 7 days to get it even from outside the US. The only issue I've found is it needs two mekugi (pegs through the handle and tang) instead of just one. I got it for use not for show so two would've been preferable for rigidity. Also if you plan on sharpening you need the right stones to polish or it will scratch the blade. I felt good with my purchase, definitely got my money's worth. I will get another as soon as possible. Also I'm giving 5 stars because this is the first one I've bought at this price range and with only one thing I considered a con (the single mekugi) I have no reason to not give a full 5 star rating. I hope this helps anyone considering making a purchase.

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

It arrived much sooner than I expected especially since it’s the holiday season. I haven’t opened it yet since it’s a gift for my best friend so I can’t say much of anything on the quality but even still I’m satisfied.

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

I am very pleased with my purchase from this website. This actually my first time buying from here so I was very excited. The weight of the blade is excellent. It is sharp, so be careful handling this beautiful weapon.
I will be purchasing more in the future🔥👍🏽

Jury is still out. Fit and finish looks and feels good. Handle is wrapped tight, and nothing is loose yet. The scabbard is junk. Wood shavings are always on the blade. Blade cuts into the scabbard easily. The blade rattles around in the scabbard. The finish on the scabbard is amazing. The matte finish feels great and is easy to hold. The blue is very deep and looks amazing.

The sword is beautiful and price is affordable! The craftsmanship is top notch, sturdy,sound and very sharp! I was very surprised when it arrived that it WASN'T a let down like so many other products ordered online. THKYOU TRUEKATANA for advertising a genuine product! I've already ordered a 2nd sword, like Kill Bill(the movie) was an instant classic, I'm an instant repeat customer!

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).
