New member of the family! I love this katana and my backyard is now full of decapitated water bottles. I've drank so many water bottles and filled them with tap water to not be wasteful--it's so addicting, getting that perfect clean slice on the water bottles, slicing multiple water bottles at once, slicing the larger jugs of waters, slicing fruits--this t10 steel is so resilient and cuts through the targets like butter. Of course, this is my first katana, my swordsmanship is that of an ultra-novice, but now I'm invigorated to learn--and learn more of the samurai history--after purchasing this instrument. What is great about TrueKatana is their unique designs, all the different scabbards and the subtle details on the hilts, the tsuba, the sheath, etc.--so much selection! I was warned that purchasing a katana would activate an addiction and, well, no regrets! 10/10, this model, the blue blade, it's mesmerizing. Just taking it out of the sheath and staring at it 😆 ...Okay, I think this review may have come off a bit long but trust me, purchase a katana from here and you'll understand!

It was exactly how I predicted. Katana came in within a week and blade was sharp. For the price it wasn't bad at all. Definitely could chop a zombies head off easily with it lol

Purchased for my son for Christmas. I was pleasantly surprised by the quality of this Katana and the workmanship put into it. This is his first 'collector' piece and we will definitely return for his other pieces. In October I plan to ask for one of the one thousand folded, clay tempered either Tachi or Katana for my birthday.
This Katana is a very beautiful piece and the well wrapped saya matches the tsuka ((handle) with the same Samegawa (PU Ray-skin) and PU leather wrappings creating a beautiful finished piece. The tsuba is iron and crafted well with a simplistic design. The handle and the saya do feel well made, though it's difficult to tell entirely. The saya fits the blade very well, 'locking' the blade in place so it cannot accidentally slide out as long as it is pressed in properly. The black blade is aesthetically pleasing and my son loved the added 'mystery' it gave the overall all black, obsidian obscurity, as he now calls it.
Very happy with our purchase.

I bought 3 pieces quite close to Christmas. They arrived ON TIME, in overwhelming beautiful quality and perfection. I turned around as soon as I saw they were above and beyond legitimate, and ordered 2 more. My only hurdle, which may be my fault, was I found the same piece on 2 different pages one $118 sale, the other 159. I don't know if I needed to order each separately to get the discount at least on each item. But it's just not enough to complain? I still ordered 2 matching pieces to a Tonto that everyone is going crazy for as our last name is Wolf, AND it's a Tonto?

I LOVE THE KATANA; good quality, well-made. Not very much weight to it, but it's sharp, the obsidian black blade came nicely oiled and wrapped (easily slid off), and it's going to be added to my collection. However, one complaint (a minor one) was the plastic wrapping of the katana handle; This wrapping stuck to the handle, was NOT removed easily because once I tried pulling it off, it ripped and kept on ripping into little tiny strips of plastic wrap still stuck to the handle! I had to patiently use tweezers to get the little plastic wrap pieces off of the handle, and it scuffed the nice leather on the handle.
But overall, I am pleased with this katana.

Katana came very sharp, easily slices fruit in the air. Looks great, build quality is elegant, sturdy, Nd very durable. Does not slice paper without tension, will enjoy playing with methods to get it sharper.

The sword is a darker blue than it looks and so is the scabbard however. The scabbard is about the color of the sword in the photo and the sword is very dark. Almost black. Both look very nice though. Sword is straight and it is sharp. Pretty decent balance. I'd say for the price you really won't beat it. Pretty fast shipping as well. Believe I got it in about 11 days. I'm not gonna say there aren't better but for a first sword or practice sword at this price I don't see you getting anything better. Metal seams to hold its edge good but I haven't done enough testing yet for that.
