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!

Everything was clean and nice. Until I checked out the sheathe and noticed some metal pieces comming off. The glue keeping the metal seemed to have came undone.

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!

I really wish I could give 5 stars, but I received a damaged product. I was given a 25% discount, but I would have much rather had the sword in good condition than have some money off. However, the two katanas I got are still very cool and I love them, hence why I would want to give a 5. However, for the price I wish the condition was better.

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.

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!
