Love these swords. Weight and balance are right on. Will definitely buy more
Handmade Japanese Samurai Sword High Manganese Steel With Blue Blade And White Scabbard |
A great katana with good weight for practice.
I've been looking for a dull, yet rightly weighted katana to practice Iaido with at home and this one hit the spot. The white coat does wear off somewhat quickly when sheathing, but as this is a training tool, wear and tear is expected.
Overall I'm quite satisfied with the design and quality of the katana.

Had a slight tweak to it either from shipping or during the quenching process but very decent edge doesn't affect the cutting performance much hard to notice unless you point out the bend but its $230 so cant compalin to much it functions and holds strong

Well I can say that the sword is a work of art with out a doubt I can also say that it is made of cheaper parts besides the metal that I ordered. The craftsmanship is not to bad but not incredible. It is good for its price range. But I can't see myself using it to learn any new skills.
On a different note there was a bit of shipping damage SO PLEASE be
warned!

Great product with very nice steel! Probaly should have gotten a less flashy model but this one is very pretty. Long shipping process with an added shipping request that I flatly refused to pay. Thought that might wreck the deal but it still came in. I will buy matching shorter versions at some point.

overall experience:
website is easy to use, has an extremely wide selection, and explanations for different product types. i was a bit skeptical of the advertisements and customer reviews, but TrueKatana is legit. every sword they advertise is exactly how it appears when delivered; these swords are great for cosplay and iaido/iaijustu.
for sharp, “battle-ready” swords, they are reviewed to not be the sharpest or most effective for regular sharp use. however you’re better off spending more for a better piece that will last longer because TrueKatana is more for display anyways
my personal order: i ordered an aluminum non-sharp katana for practice and display; it’s a solid piece that is assembled with nice quality. would order again if ever interested in a second one. i was able to track my order as well all throughout the process
TL;DR: very honest advertisement for nice blades at reasonable prices. you get what you order. but don’t expect an amazing cutting/sharp sword; spend more money on a better sword for those purposes

I was impressed with how quickly my order passed through customs and landed on my doorstep. We had a tight timeline for our son’s birthday. It arrived in time! He was thrilled. It is beautifully crafted.

This is the 4th sword ordered from TrueKatana. Everyone of them has been of high quality with fine detailed work. I believe some of the best work in the field for the price. The art work on this ninjato is fabulous. Will always look to them for my next purchase.

Honestly, I was a bit skeptical as this was my first time ordering from True Katana. I could not be happier with the purchase.
The quality exceeded my expectations for the price. I constantly want to hold the sword because it just feels right.
It shipped incredibly quick and came ahead of the projections.
I will be buying another sword...the question is which one as there are so many beautiful designs to choose from.
