Nice straight and sharp. The all black with gold hilites really adds a classy look. I'm no expert on clay tempered blades but polish is excellent. The pattern seems a little too even in it's wave but as I said I'm not yet with full knowledge. Overall very very nice my best one so far.
I will be reviewing the sword on the Youtube channel Mr. Excalibur. Very nice blade. Lovely hamon! Fittings' casting could have been better. The ito wrap could have been a little tighter. Nice saya! A little lose ... ok.
I recently purchased a Katana sword from this site, the Gold Crane Tsuba and I am extremely pleased.
It is a fine, sharp, well-made quality sword.
