Full Tang Katana Sword Sharp Real Samurai Swords Handmade Anime Sword 41inch

I bought this Katana for use with a Cosplay I do a couple times a year because I got tried of borrowing my friends' swords. I didn't want something super cheap feeling or made of plastic or whatever. I really just wanted it to have a good look and weight to match the quality of the rest of my costume. I took the word of many other reviews about the quality and look off this Katana and ordered it. Upon opening it, I would not have been disappointed had I paid double what this cost me! I'm no expert, but I've handled quite a few Katanas in my time of varying quality. This thing looks and feels legit. The blade is super cool looking and very sharp in the blued steel. The quality of the blade is VASTLY superior to other swords I've handled at this $50 price point. I mean there is no comparison! The Saya (scabbard) appears to be real wood (can see it at the top with sword out) and is just a basic black lacquered finish with a very good quality holding tie. It looks and feels excellent in hand. The Katana itself is well decorated. Aside from the blued blade finish, the grip is in a white leather (faux I assume) that feels great and is plenty durable for handling and cosplay. The tsuba is metal and well decorated. Doesn't feel cheap. The pommel is a thinner metal that matches, seems good to me. The weight seems good. It's probably not some perfectly balanced combat ready katana, but others reviews says it's actually pretty nice for practice and cutting. All I know is it's beyond perfect for my needs. It would display beautifully and be perfect for and costume. Be aware the blade is sharp so there is that! Something others haven't mentioned, the blade comes oiled and sealed in plastic. It comes with instructions on how to wipe the oil in and remove heavy residue. Just general care. This makes me feel like the blade is of decent quality steel. If there is a better Katana you can buy brand new, have it delivered next day for $50, I'm not sure it exists.

Not gonna lie, I purchased this for my 8, soon to be 9 year old son for Christmas. He became very interested in anime which sparked an interest in katanas, swords, and other weaponry. A katana was surprisingly the number one most wanted item on his Christmas list. I figured there was no harm in buying it for him because he’s proven an understanding of the katana, the potential dangers, and was not going to be unsupervised with it. I was very impressed with the packaging it arrived in. It was well packaged in a very sturdy long wooden box with a custom insert and styrofoam to hold it in place perfectly while in transit. Every single piece was wrapped in plastic. It was pretty satisfying unboxing this thing and peeling all the plastic off of it all. It’s very sharp. It would be super easy to sit down with this sucker and hone it until it’s scary sharp. It’s very hefty too. It’s heavy enough. This isn’t a toy. Not by any means. My son has been rough on the blame because he went right to work chopping down trees in the backyard with it. He’s sliced and diced all kinds of things. I can’t even tell you how many watermelons I sacrificed to the little guy and his gigantic sword. He had great fun with it though. The only things I have to point out are for one, the rope that came strung thru the scabbard has these little gold colored metal decorative details. I believe those are supposed to be glued or somehow attached to the loop on the scabbard because they fit perfectly in place. However they must not have glued or attached them properly because they are all loosey goosey, as you can see from my attached video. Secondly, the handle has a nice braided leather detail. It’s pretty and seems well done. It seems they put gold colored metal decorations on the handle and braided on top of them, securing them to the handle under the twisted leather-ish detail. You’ll see them in the video. There are also little wooden cork-ish spots that look like they were meant to be covered by the decorative handle detail. But I honestly have no complaints. I searched all over Amazon when searching for the right katana to buy and I highly doubt you will find a better one for this price.

I find it hard to believe this thing is only $49 because it is gorgeous. The blue blade is a sight to behold, and the handle is perfectly wrapped. The weight of it is very balanced, and it is full tang, which is a bonus. I put Eezox on it to prevent it from rusting, and it has zero rust. I haven't tried cutting down trees or anything so I will reserve comment on that. For home defense in the dark this would be much better than relying on a kitchen knife. If you are interested in katanas but don't want to spend a fortune, this is a great one to get. You may be so happy with it you won't need to buy something more expensive.

Amazing sword! Came sharp, but a very few passes on the sharpener to straighten the kerf and it is a long razor. Have not tested the durability, but impressed by the videos posted by some foks that did clearly showing this sword in action.

I returned my first one and got a new one. This time with none of the issues from the first one. The only complaint I have is the grip feels slippery (But I also need to learn how to swing a sword properly), but other than that it's great! sharp and strong, I like the sheath, and the cosmetics are great! wonderful budget katana. this was my first review: This is my first sword, and legit it's not bad, especially for the price. there is a splatter mark from whatever was used to dye it halfway up the blade. the rest of the coloring of the sword is good, but that is a bit annoying. honestly, the worst part is it's slightly bent, but not too extremely. Other than the slight bend and the splatter mark, it's great. Seems sharp and strong. I don't think the problems are too big of a deal, but I might look into a refund, just cause it's not what all the other reviews have been saying. I doubt I could liberate Tsushima from the Mongol empire with this sword, but hey it's 50 bucks.

I saw Katanas when I was visiting Japan and saw they weren't that expensive, so checking Amazon I see this sword which has good ratings, has a full tang (so it won't fall apart), looks functional for cutting (according to the reviews). It is a strange blue color and I would have preferred it just be plain steel, but it is mostly for display. It is sharp enough to cut a standard sheet of paper. I did try to cut some small boxes, but mostly just ended up smashing them. I accidentally put a slice into one of my doorframes, but a quick wipe showed there was no damage to the blade. The build seems amazing and looks great. I got a set of wall hangers and that is where it sits until I try fruit ninja in real life.

Great. Update: i had to come back to thank the swordsmith. This blade has a sharp edge, the saya is beautifully made and fits perfectly. This blade doesn't rattle nor feel loose. The tsuka is well made and fits like a glove. Also had to note: it feels evenly balanced not front or back heavy making it great for practice. For the price you really cant beat it

As soon as i opened the box first thing popped into my head was Wow Impressive. And gentlemen; it truly is. I collect them and i must say its one of the most finest in my collection. The detail alone is uneqauled. Bueaty And craftsmanship and sturdyness are exuisite. It will bring you joy for many years to come. Well worth the money .Its the sharpest blade i own.the scabbard became loose after a few days but i tightened it by gluing a piece of paneling inside of it as a shim. Charles Dillard Texas
