The sword arrived less than 15 days, very fast shipping. The sword is very sturdy and the quality is great, for the price!! The edge is not very sharp, which is okay. It is very unfortunate that the blade and tsuka cannot be disassembled for maintenance. That would be my only compliment

I am happy with the blade overall, however, parts along the Scabard came broken off of the scabbard when I received it. Additionally, there was a large amount of hot glue at the end that was clearly visible.

Handmade Japanese Sekiro Katana Sword With Red Blade |
The sword is solid but nimble with a more slender blade,but the red black leather handle with the solid suba and the cool red blade combined with the flawless wood saya makes this a piece to just show off. It's a beaty.

I have held a real 95 gunto military sword and this one for the money is an excellent reproduction! Very sharp, so be careful! The metal is high grade carbon steel (1095) which holds its edge! A nice collectors piece without having to spent serious money on the real thing!

The sword is beautiful, and actually higher quality than I expected. Obviously refrain from hitting it against stuff, but it’s still sharp either way. I’m still amazed at the accuracy!

The blade is absolutely incredible, from the design to the weight to the overall craftsmanship of this Katana is amazing. Unfortunately mine did come with minor scratches that came unexpectedly however the delivery was quick and the price was not at all a waste! I would highly recommend purchasing This or any other blade from these guys! Again the craftsmanship and overall performance of this blade was well worth the money spent!

Either way good sword and great shine

Nice workmanship, but fits a little loose. I used to have an ‘actual’ officers sword, and it had a metal latch to keep the sword from falling out is the scabbard. Would be nice to see if you could replicate this. I would definitely buy such a sword: practical and pragmatic.

Wwii Japanese Army Officer's Shin Gunto Samurai Sword Type 98 With Camouflage Scabbard |
Initial product is nice.
However glue used for the hook and ornaments was horrible, had to superglue them after not long.
Habaki is slightly loose, although it isn’t a problem thankfully.
Would recommend for a first buy, as I did, but not for anyone who collects them.

High-performance Wwii Japanese Type 98 Army Shin Gunto Officer’s Saber Sword With Brown Scabbard |
I recently decided to start collecting WWII Japanese swords so I purchased a Type 98 Shin Gunto reproduction from TrueKatana to see what these swords looked like back in the day. The quality of the sword was very good, very reasonably priced and only took a couple of weeks to arrive. I will definitely buy from them again!
On a side note, a few months ago I purchased a beat-up Type 98 Shin Gunto at a garage sale for a few hundred bucks. I found Ishido Teruhide's name on the tang as the swordsmith. The blade has been authenticated and now I know what it should look like when it's fully restored!
