Fantastic quality and great customer service. After placing an order for this Wakizashi, I stumbled across a different model that called my name. A quick email to truekatana support asking for a swap was met with a quick reply and assurance that my 2nd choice would be shipped. When it arrived, I held my breath and was delighted to lay eyes on the model that I wanted. The quality of the blade, tsuka, tsuba, pommel, scabbard is amazing, very impressed. If you are in the market for a katana, wakizashi, tanto, or any blade then you need to browse and choose what speaks to you, I guarantee you will not be disappointed!

Handmade Wakizashi Sword T10 Folded Clay Tempered Steel With Brown Scabbard |
I needed a cheap wakizashi that looked good from a distance.
I paid $135, and I got exactly what I wanted.
Under close inspection, it will not impress; but if you need it for some kind of costume, or you want it mounted beyond someone's reach, it works great.

It would NOT be good for a cosplay at a public comic convention though, because the blade is real metal. For those, you need wood or plastic.

Minus a star for poor sheath retention which I fixed with a thin layer of wood glue.
Good blade and handle quality otherwise.

Well made, only complaint is the metal of the blade doesn't seem to go fully into handle, feels like the weight of it is far too forward, otherwise great purchase

Handmade Shirasaya Wakizashi Swords Without Tsuba With Rosewood Scabbard |
I got it on sale but some issues may indicate why it was on sale.
Cons:
Blade was bent and wavy ( not straight)
the grinds were a little heavy on some places showing little hot spots.
The Hamon was very prominent in photos but very faint in person.
Pros:
Blade is very sharp and although faint, the Hamon looks much better than a fake hamon.
Woodworking (and wood) vas very nice
Fitting was very nice and tight (handle ,and sword to sheath)
Overall it's ok for the "sale" price, but as is I would not pay full price again for the same piece that I recieved.
I am reviewing only 1 piece and this does not reflect True Katana's Overall product .
Thanks

It’s amazing quality. It looks amazing, feels amazing, it has a really good weight, and it’s sharp, so I can cut stuff up like I’m playing fruit ninja with no worry that it won’t cut the fruit.

All the sword are great! Love the quality. Our competition team loves the balance and the look of them.
However, one of the scabbards seems to have some of the packaging still stuck down in the bottom of the sheath. Not quite sure how to get that out without damaging the sheath. If you have any suggestions please let me know so we can allow our entire team to utilize these fine weapons.
