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.

Great sword. Couldn’t be happier with the service.

Thank you

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.

I love this Sword. But I'm a little concerned. I'm having a difficult time initially releasing the blade from the scabbard. When I seat the sword fully into the scabbard it gets really stuck in there. I'm guessing it's a type of friction lock to keep the sword from accidentally coming out of the scabbard when used as a walking stick.
Is this the correct assumption?

Being a fan of the Zatoichi series I had to get this. It’s a wonderful piece. I plan on purchasing from True Katana again in the future.

Beautiful sword. Love it. The only complaint I have is it doesn’t like lock it self into the scabbard it easily falls out. But with it always being on display I should have to worry it’s just the thought it could fall out at anytime was kinda concerning for a minute but overall it was what I wanted.

Nice sword for the price. No hamon, not very sharp either, but fits well in scabbard.

I was not disappointed with my Shikomizue Sword when it arrived. Excellent craftsmanship and great service from Truekatana! I look forward placing more orders in the near future.

The sword I received is exactly what you would expect for the price. The blade chips fairly easily and you'll feel a lot of vibration in the hilt even if you tap the blade against the scabbard, so you won be fighting in any great wars with it. However it looks very nice and feels fairly good to swing. If you have anyone in your life that's into this sort of thing this is a decent choice especially for the price. Just be aware of it's flaws.

I love the sword! It feels so great in your hand, the weight is awesome. It cuts well too. It was also a huge plus that it came so quickly (a week).

Beautiful sword!
I was a tad skeptical buying it online without seeing it but man did you all deliver. The weight is perfect, the construction is sturdy and the wood work is killer. I completely love this thing and will be back for more.

Great deal! For the price I wasn't expecting it to be as fine of quality. The wood tsuka and saya appears to be fine hardwood with a tight grain and no blemishes or visible seams where it was joined. The two mekugi (pegs) in the handle are smooth and the emblem in the wood is laser-engraved. The blade fits into the saya tightly with no rattling. It arrived with the 1045 steel blade greased and protected in plastic wrap—a sign of care on behalf of TrueKatana.
Overall, my first impressions are that it is a hefty, sharp, and balanced sword, fit to do some actual cutting. I cannot wait to test it out! 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

Blade is absolutely beautiful. Although I can't see for next time, what is the length of the weapon because in dimensions it says 41x0x0. Which is misleading, because as I searched for a Nodachi, which is a Japanese Great sword. They are very long but it says 41x0x0. If anyone could point out how to find out the length of a weapon on the site that'd be great. Either way I love my shikomizue.

Gave to a friend of mine
And he about jumped out of his skin
He thought it is the coolest thing he has ever seen. We collect knives and stuff so when I presented this to him, wow!
It is on the heavy side
But we both think it’s very well made and feels and looks amazing
Thank you!
Will order another!
I’m looking at the manganese type… not sure yet…

I have not opened as it is a Christmas gift for my grandson. He has been asking for this for awhile. I must say the shipping was much quicker than expected. If he is happy with this one there is another he would like to have and he has a birthday coming in February. Thank you!!!

The Sword came in earlier which is a great thing. And the whole sword itself is fantastic. The craftsmanship of the blade, the smoothness of the wood of the handle and sheath, and how careful the delivery was. I will admit I have to use a little force to open the sheath, but that ok cause it’ll prove to keep the blade heathy from rust. Overall, this sword is great, and I hope to see more future swords through this website.

Company is in China, so be patient with language barriers. Overall great customer service, but be patient because swords are being shipped from China and take time…

Looked great when arrived other than some light scuffs on scabbard and having to lightly file inside of scabard for smoother drawing of and sheathing of sword.
