Our swords are made of quality materials,each sword we make is handmade with care, fully functional, and capable of test cutting. Also if you are considering buying them as collections or gifts for your friends, That would be the best choice.
IPad Air4 for size comparison. It's beautiful, just like the photos. It has a hefty weight and feels sturdy. I absolutely love it and just need to get a display stand for it.
I didn't want to remove the plastic on the blade, as I don't have any oil yet to care for it, so I'm leaving it wrapped but I saw no chips, bends, dents, or scratches on the blade. It arrived carefully wrapped between two blocks of Styrofoam in perfect condition and tracking was easy to follow. Overall I'm super satisfied and so glad I bought it.

This one is a great find. Beautiful build quality and also very affordable. It caught my eye emediately on the website, ordered it and when it arrived in almost less than a week I was not disappointed. The weight of it is awesome, really feels strong in hand. The sleek simple bamboo design is top notch also . This sword took me back to my days in Okinawa, Japan thanks True Katana! When it arrived there was a couple cracks in my scabbard causing it to release a little loosely but I addressed it with TrueKatana Customer service and they sent me a new scabbard free of charge! Best customer service ever! Sent an email with a couple pictures and Fiona responded promptly within 24 hrs. Very pleased with the TrueKatana brand so far! Looking forward to my next purchase. THANKS!!

What a beautiful piece, the Saya fits snug with no rattle and the blade was oiled and in perfect shape! I’ve been having a Zatoichi marathon since it came! I foolishly read into some bad reviews because the shipping confirmation never updated. I contacted them via email and Fiona was quick to reply and follow up with UPS. Not sure what she told UPS, maybe she threatened them with a katana because they got the lead out and it arrived to NC in less than a week! Thank you so much, I love it!

Sword is amazing. Considering it come from across the world it got here relatively fast. You can tell the sword was made carefully and is incredibly sharp. This sword and sword website is amazing and I’ll definitely be shopping here again.

Sword is solid and well put together, but the last 2 inches has a slight curve to the right when looking from the spine. Compared to the other 2 katanas I own it's noticeably heftier, but that doesn't mean much to me. The saya and handle are nice in my opinion and the entire thing feels pretty sturdy. The only issue is with the blade itself, but thats also the heart of a sword so even if its slight it's still noticeable

I love this katana, It is very pleasing to the eye.
This black Bamboo Shirasaya is surprisingly made very well, it is handmade with a full tang that is made of 1045 carbon steel.
The tsuka or handle is fitted very tightly and does not move at all and is thin but fits nicely in the hand/s.
The habaki fits very well and isn't loose, the blade is pretty sharp and will cut but I'll put a much better edge on it with a wet stone and leather strop it will definitely take a fine razor edge.
The kissaki (tip) is done well and cleanly and easily penetrates cardboard, straw, and pigskin (yes I tried it).
The hamon or wave pattern made by clay differently treating it, is prounced enough to see and looks good, it fits good in the saya (scabbard) but could be a bit tighter I'll fix that with a thin shim. No biggie.
Overall this is a really nice Shirasaya and will be a great addition to my Japanese sword collection, it's well worth the money at this price.

Just needs to be sharpened a little better is all. Other then that it was worth the money.
