I love almost everything thing about this tanto blade. While I could nitpick over insignificant details, my only real complaint is that the blade could be sharper, but bare in mind, I've been a professional cook for nearly 30 years and I'm comparing the sharpness to culinary standards even though I have no intention of using it for cooking.

Short Straight Sword, Handmade Hamidashi Tanto Sword High Manganese Steel With Blue Blade |
So, I ordered a Wakizashi, together with this absolute beautiful Katana, and they arrived today.r
r
I had a complaint about the Wakizashi, so that the TK-Team handled it a way, with that I am quite happy... so the customer-service is pretty super, as these guys take their Stuff serious.r
r
r
The Tsuka of the Katana is absolutely astonishing... upon holding it firmly, I get better grip than with other swords I tested, so I was positively surprised. The Blade itself is absolutely beautiful... it was a present for me father, and he is crazy about it as I am.r
r
Very good quality, feels just qualitatively very good... so I can only recommend it : )

So, it's a little on the heavy side. The plastic covering the blade was ripped, stand the scabbard is loaded up with the oil the blade was shipped in - so whenever I unsheath it, the blade has way too much oil on it. The hamon is super fake looking. It should have a natural hamon because in the item description, it states the blade is clay tempered. Otherwise, I am happy with it overall. I guess the next one I buy will have to be more expensive- to get the features that I thought I was getting with this one.

No edge at all, and you can see all the seams that shouldn't be there. Not cool!

Handmade Chokuto Ninjato Sword Hand Forged Full Tang |
Arrived in timely fashion. Everything as described in many other reviews: well-packaged and preserved, with a heavy coat of oil under a plastic sleeve to protect the blade from rust. The katana itself is heavy, solid, and appears to be well-made. The edge is quite sharp, but probably not as sharp as some would prefer. This is easily remedied by someone who knows what they are doing. We haven't tried it on a pig carcass or anything yet. :) Will update should the opportunity arise.

Handmade Japanese Katana Sword 1060 Carbon Steel With Black Scabbard |
The sword is a fine weapon, very sharp and light at 2 pounds. SF delivery was fast! I do question if the hamon is differentially hardened or mechanically applied. When reviewing the website and ordering there was nothing mentioning the hamon process. I would like True Katana to clarify this issue, before ordering any other swords.

Handmade Japanese Chokuto Ninjato Sword 1045 Carbon Steel With Red Scabbard |
I rated 3 stars only because the type of steel (1095,1090, 1045, 1060) was not specified in the description of the sword. I bought because of high manganese content. Don't know the carbon content or manganese content of the blade. Sent an e-mail to True Katana but no response.
