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.

Beautiful weapon. The scabbard and blade look exquisite. The red color on the blade adds mystique, yet you can still see the pattern and the balance is excellent. The handle and scabbard wrapping are firm and look fantastic. Definitely art and functionality fused beautifully.

I have absolutely no complaints with the swords Ive bought, this is the second one I have purchased and looks SO GOOD, it slides into the saya effortlessly and stays put, the blades comes oiled and protected and is great for fun or decoration.

For the price, it is very nice katana. The hamon looks nice and all of the lines are nice and straight. The yokote is not perfectly defined but it is nonetheless decent. Overall very nice and sturdy as well.

Another win-win for True Katana. This is the second sword I purchased, this one is for my son, its everything they said it would be. And so much more wehn you see the real sword. Came shipped in a well wrapped Styrofoam package and was delivered in 10 days. The blade was well oiled, sharp and beautiful. Makes me want to keep it for myself.

I'm no katana expert, however the katana sword by "True Katana" has a quality feel and look to it. The handle wrapping is tight and the fittings are nice. The blade is SHARP and LIVE. "IT WILL CUT". Delivery was pretty fast.
