Sword looks beautiful but did come with a couple rusty spots. They offered a little discount and that made me happier. The sword was sharp but not as sharp as I thought it would be from the reviews and description according to the page. Overall still a beautiful sword that looks well made!

Clay Tempered T10 Steel Katana with Real Hamon - Brown Ito Wrap, Kanji Engraved Saya in Gold Gilding Tsuba |
I rarely leave reviews, but my experience with TrueKatana absolutely deserves one.r
r
I initially received an incorrect item with my order. Mistakes happen, that part didn’t concern me. What did matter was how the situation was handled, and TrueKatana exceeded every expectation I had.r
r
From the very first reply, their support team was polite, responsive, and genuinely focused on making things right. They clearly communicated my options, worked with my timeline (this was a birthday gift), and went out of their way to minimize inconvenience. Instead of rigid policies or delays, I was met with flexibility, transparency, and solutions.r
r
The highlight? They arranged shipment of the correct sword promptly and ultimately told me I could keep the incorrect item at no cost—no return required. That level of trust and goodwill is rare, especially in online retail.r
r
What impressed me most wasn’t just the resolution, but how easy they made the entire process feel. No friction. No defensiveness. No hoops to jump through. Just professional, thoughtful customer care from start to finish.r
r
TrueKatana has earned a customer for life. Their customer service genuinely rivals what I’ve experienced with top-tier Fortune 500 companies, and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to anyone considering a purchase.r
r
If you’re on the fence, don’t be. You’ll be taken care of.

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.

I gave a 3 star due to the scabbard. It looks rushed and very plastic looking. The material looks pressed together and wasn’t happy with scabbard. Sword was great though.

It’s a very nice katana, however I don’t like the plating on the guard. It looks tacky and fake. Otherwise the rest of the katana looks and feels awesome.

This sword is gorgeous, i would take a picture but they just don’t do it any justice. the blade is gold, with a beautiful bamboo artwork as shown. a little on the heavy side but balanced well. handle is comfortable; just overall a great blade

Not the best photograph I've ever taken so I'll tell you about it this sword is both beautiful and made with quality. It has a great heft to it a little heavier than I'm used to but that's okay. The transaction was easy the shipping arrived on time and in good order. I call it the king's sword the katana is gold very striking very beautiful. And the fact that it's not a mantle piece only makes it even that much better. I spent time in Okinawa and I'm sure my Sensei would approve. That was many many years ago now I am the Sensei.

This sword is absolutely beautiful and solidly constructed. The leather wrapping of the saya is nice and tight, grip is wrapped well, and the tsuba is solid. T10 carbon steel is great quality for the price and the blade is nice and sharp. I’m very happy with my purchase.
