Authentic Japanese Katana Sword - Exquisite Craftsmanship Real Katana, High Toughness katanas

Loved the quality and the sharpness. Looks and feels very expensive and yet it is not. Looks great on my wall. This was my first sword. Great choice at a great price !

I customize affordable "Knives" (Samurai Swords), and I dissemble each and usually change hardware, paint and Tsuka/Sageo wrapping to possibly make them look better. This knife was easy to work with, a rare bonus. Even the Mekugi pegs were sanded on each end, (nice touch!) of Proper length and were fitted snug, but removed just as they should. The Tang was Clean, filed, and needed just a few wipes with baby oil before re-assembling with custom Tsubas, Fuchi and Kashira. The standard waxy glue used to make Ito weaving tight and easier for the factory artisans to wrap, was easy to remove and replace with strips of double sided tape which is a must for tighter wrap that I want. The Saya! Sturdy. Even the Koiguchi (mouth) was even, clean and as good as it gets--especially at the price point. Truly, an "alright!" discovery and better than most of my higher end knives. The blade was straight, even Bohi, but maybe a "tad"heavy. a heavier Tsuba helped that for balance--a Subjective detail. This is my third(?) Katana from them. That's the bottom line for me. >>Craftsmanship--six stars, not five.

It was bought as a gift. I did have a chance to examine it myself and thought it looked very nice. The blade is sharp. I haven't tested it but it felt standard knife or display sword sharp as in be careful not to cut yourself, but not like a razor or a sword that would cost thousands of dollars.

Ok so we'll start here, I love swords, I'm somewhat of a sword buff, although most of my knowledge is European swords, this is my first katana, and I am absolutely BLOWN AWAY by the quality of this sword for its price point. Most other swords at this price are just wall hangers (partial or rat tail tang, poor balance and a blunt edge) But THIS is not the edge is sharp I wouldn't say razor sharp but is definitely functionally sharp, in terms of weight I think it has an EXCELENT balance, like said this is my first katana so I don't particularly have another reference point about the balance but I definitely love it. I will be buying a second and performing a stress test, I will return here and edit my review with the durability results but even if it breaks really easily or and a dumb way that likely won't change my rating. Edit: So, after my stress test, I have learned that this sword is defiantly not hardened at all, with that having been said I am very satisfied, the handle fell apart and the Tsuba broke off, but honestly, I am very impressed. The blade bent in a few spots, the VERY VERY TIP folded it DID NOT BREAK until I tried to bend it back, the edge had some chips and rolling, but it can PROBABLY be sharpened out if you know how to use a whetstone, with that all I would defiantly buy it again. Itis definitely a very good beginner Katana or even a good first sword.

Bought this for my adult son for Christmas and he absolutely loved it! This sword has great build quality and seems to be well balanced. No way you can beat the price!

It's classy looking

Super high quality for the price, very pointy and pretty sharp

Very nice construction. Would buy again.
