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.

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.

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 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.

Excellent tracking info the whole way. Sword arrived securely packaged and in superb condition. Was bought as a present for my son after his final highschool wrestling season because a warrior deserves a good sword and now he has a great sword! We will purchase from TrueKatana again.

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.
