Sword came earlier than expected. Razor sharp, and it was as advertised. The only knock I can give it is that it was slightly bent toward the top.

received my order a little over a week ago. The sword is beautiful and well crafted, more than I expected. One problem though, the handle has about a two crack and a hairline crack on the scabbard which I'm having repaired, a minor inconvenience considering the overall appearance is a real compliment and I understand things just happen, no negative reflection on your company, the item is a very beautiful piece and I'm very proud to own one. I would honestly be happy to do business with you again!!! " thank you again " GEORGE

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.

Very nice, well made sword. I never considered its weight, but I can feel it is solid.
Hilarious "do not use for" rules on the enclosed card. (Ex. - Do not groom your dog with this sword")

Truekatana is making all of my childhood dreams come true. This is my third Katana. I have developed a new obsession. Truekatana for the win!

Great Katana! I recieved it quick. The sword itself has high quality and feels durable. While not deadly sharp it's still fairly sharp and can indeed hurt someone. I'll definitely be looking forward to buying more from this site.

This was my 3rd purchase from True Katana. But it's my first straight blade Katana (don't know the technical name) Very sleek and stylish. I love the simplicity of this sword. It came packaged well, the blade was wrapped in plastic and had a layer of oil to preserve it. Very sharp!!, feels good to hold and swing. Don't know if they make a set of this or not. I find no irregularities, no wobbling what so ever and it slides in smoothly. The Katana is exactly what they post on the site, just looks better up close and personal. Very pleased with this purchase.

Well made!! The only con to mention is the weight isn’t balanced

Very nice and well made. The sword stays in its wooden sheath until you pull it out. This was a concern for me as
I had ordered the same style sword from another company and the wood was bass wood. It’s a soft wood, the sword falls out of its wooden sheath on its own!!
So I was quite impressed with the construction of this sword from True Katana. It was exactly what I was looking for.

Excellent customer service and fast shipping, recommended

It's a little bigger than what zatoichi fans should expect, but that was my fault for not knowing how big the listed length is (I'm 5'6) the quality is pretty darn good. The habaki is a little tight in koiguchi but that's expected of a shikomizue (to be used as a cane) I will definitely be purchasing from trukatana in future. Budget and sturdy quality stuff.

Very clean katana, I wish some where the blade and the guard meet were cleaner, there was access glue or something but other than that, it’s fantastic
