First katana ever purchased. Very pleased with quality for price. It feels very solid and is sharp. Sleek and modern design. Arrived within a week of ordering. Saving up to buy another more expensive one.
The sword is sturdy, blade is sharp, comfortable to hold, overall good quality.
Arrived in timely fashion. Everything as described in many other reviews: well-packaged and preserved, with a heavy coat of oil under a plastic sleeve to protect the blade from rust. The katana itself is heavy, solid, and appears to be well-made. The edge is quite sharp, but probably not as sharp as some would prefer. This is easily remedied by someone who knows what they are doing. We haven't tried it on a pig carcass or anything yet. :) Will update should the opportunity arise.
The sword is a fine weapon, very sharp and light at 2 pounds. SF delivery was fast! I do question if the hamon is differentially hardened or mechanically applied. When reviewing the website and ordering there was nothing mentioning the hamon process. I would like True Katana to clarify this issue, before ordering any other swords.
Gorgeous katana. It was sharper that anticipated but it is an absolutely stunning crafted sword.
Thank you.
