Build quality is lacking in some areas. r
r
Packaging is terrible. It comes in a taped up Styrofoam container instead of a wooden or cardboard box. Its from China, but that's expected.r
r
The katana itself is decent and sharp.r
The outer finish on the saya is nice and looks exactly like the pictures.r
r
However, it was extremely hard to remove the katana from the saya, due to the habaki area getting stuck. I ended up having to lightly sand down the koiguchi area once I eventually got the katana out of the saya.r
r
Moreover, the blade rattles in the saya, which I'm not sure how I'm going to fix yet.

Handmade Japanese Katana Sword T10 Folded Clay Tempered Steel Real Hamon With Black Scabbard |
The sword is absolutely beautiful and sharp enough to shave with. The scabbard is like the design is engraved into the leather before being painted silver with is pretty cool. It's sturdy and the blade fits nicely in the scabbard. All in all I'm happy with this new addition to my now 7 katana sword collection.

Well made katana, I received the katana just how described, I love the hamon and everything about the fitting are nice and tight how they should be, the only thing I have to complain about is the paint job of the tsuba other than that beutiful sword thank you.

Blade is beautiful. Only issue is that it is slightly warped in two directions, but it's a minor issue since it's going to be a display item.

Handmade Aluminum Brown Blade Blunt Unsharpened Practice Katana For Beginner Training |
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

This is the 3rd I’ve purchased with True Katana. Swords are really good quality and look great. The turn around time from ordering to receiving is excellent. Love the company and will definitely be purchasing more in the future.

Handmade Japanese Katana Sword T10 Folded Clay Tempered Steel Real Hamon |
I bought the Japanese Katana Sword, Damascus steel with Dragon Tsuba for my husband. AND I am very pleased. Shipping was fast and the sword is everything they said it would be, came packed tight in a Styrofoam case, undamaged and completely assembled (have seen some web site where after receiving the sword it has to be assembled – not what I wanted) The sword was greased and very sharp. This website has instructions on how to clean and maintain the sword, very helpful.
For some reason I ordered twice and, in my panic, to correct this I sent a couple of emails. Customer service was very prompt and helpful, the extra order was canceled, and my money quickly refunded. If you are looking for a great Katana Sword, I recommend this company

Got what I paid for.
279 plus a coupon was pretty good value for what I got. Their was a few problems to be expected from a cheaper Katana but the pros outweigh the cons in this scenario. And what I received was a beautiful Katana without a doubt.
