Handmade Japanese Aikuchi Tanto Sword 1045 Carbon Steel |
i have never used truekatana before and i am quite satisfied with 2 tanto purchases i made from there. first off, was packed well and was protected coming to this country. the shirasaya tanto is beautiful and is very sharp-cant wait to test cut with it. As a true gamble i ordered a higher end more ornamental tanto and was in disbelief as i saw that the blade is probably the sharpest of any blade i have. I cant wait to test. i have no doubt both tantos are properly pegged, functional, and will perform! if i have one complaint its that everything should come with its respective swordbag. I will order from truekatana again for sure.

Handmade Japanese Double Edge Tanto Sword Full Tang |
The items is nice, scabbard fits and holds well. Good ballance. Grip feals great. I would take this blade into battle. The little details make this a 3 star review or I would expect a better quality for the price point. They used too much glue, it seeped from places leaving a bead around the edges. There appeared to be something on the brass before they blackened it, that rubbed off and revealed a untreated surface or blemish. Minor scratches on some parts of the tang part. And it radles, somewhere in the handle something makes a rattling noise when you swing it side to side or quick rotations in the rust.

Could just be me but in the pictures it looked like the blade was a little wider than it was. Either way it came in and looks amazing.

The package arrived in good shape and a few days earlier than expected.
The Shirasaya Tanto TK-JZ-KT-L190016 shortsword appears to be well made and of good quality. I will put a final edge on the blade and polish up the brass fittings to bring it to it ‘s full potential . I am very satisfied.

Handmade Japanese Shirasaya Tanto Sword Damascus Steel |
I absolutely LOVE this Copper Tanto!
It really is the length of a dirk as it is too long for a dagger and too short for a short sword.
I would categorize this as a dirk, not a tanto.
Having said that:
The fit was superb, with a nice and light, audible click as the dirk is sheathed in the scabbard and locks into place. The patterns and décor of the piece is wonderful. This is a quality piece. The steel of the blade itself is high quality, and can be seen as a pattern steel in all of its splendor.
There was a small burr on one of the hanger rings, but nothing a little rat tail file couldn't take care of. That is going to happen from time to time with manufacturing like this.
The Wakizashi was also very nice. The steel of the blade has a real hamon and is quite sharp indeed. The handle was a little bit on the large side, however, for those with larger hands, this is not going to be a problem. The fit of the saya on the blade was a little too loose and required my attention to add a small shim to properly fit the blade and scabbard. All the same, this is a beautiful piece, and that's why I chose it. It's a keeper.
