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.

Handmade Japanese Samurai Tanto Sword High Manganese Steel |
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.

A decent decorative piece for the price. However, after a few months of minor handling the ito started to unravel.

I love my new Tanto blade! It came super quick, and razer sharp. I couldn't be more pleased with the expert craftsmanship that went into this blade. I truly love how the Damascus inlay came out. Simply superb! I look forward to adding more to my collection.

We do love this tanto and shipping was great however there are just little things on the handle to not get a 5 star. (Still totally worth the money and a great piece) but you can see some tool marks on the handle and it should’ve been wrapped where 3 of the pins were not showing.

Handmade Japanese Double Edge Tanto Sword Full Tang |
I have purchased over a dozen items so far. I absolutely love my swords and stands. Some scabbards were not tight as they warp a tiny bit with heat changes in shipping. This is only a couple out of the many. Customer service was extremely helpful and explained this to me as well as a way to fix on my end. 5 stars. Great business, great products and great customer service. Thanks.

Handmade Shirasaya Tanto Sword T10 Carbon Steel Real Hamon |
Very pleased with the Tanto; the Fitment and workmanship is excellent!
There are only minor 2 niggles...
There several small black spots on the silver tsuba (possibly paint , as
I could not feel an edge to the dots, which I would have felt if the plating was failing).
the second niggle...it is kinda sharp, but should have been sharper...
Minor, in my opinion...The Hamon is beautiful, The blade is well polished, and
the overall feel and balance is very good...
Will purchase from TrueKatana again.
