This Katana is beautiful and professionally made. The spine of the blade has a bevel finish from the Habaki to the Kissaki which is a nice surprise. I was expecting a flat spine like you find on knives. The blade has nice Harmon and has a really sharp edge. The Ito wrap is nice and tight and fitting are not loose. The Saya has a nice firm fit not to loose or tight when drawing the blade. I check everything and found some minor damage on Saya on Kurikata side on the Kojiri which has a dent on the edge. Other then that this is a beautiful Katana and I will be ordering more from TrueKatana. I recommend them to anyone looking for good quality Katana to buy as present or for your collection.
My first impression when I saw it was the package very protective for the katana and the stand but my impression was major when I saw that beautiful well crafted katana OMG awesome quality, well done, I’ll definitely buy again I’m already looking for my next one here in truekatana, they really make real katanas
