High-performance Japanese Katana Sword Primary Tamahagane Steel |
About 2 years ago I purchased my first katana ever from this site and I couldn’t have been more excited. I had settled upon a shirasaya katana with a nice plain wood look for around $250-$300 US. It was a nice katana made from T10 Carbon steel, but it obviously was going to have its imperfections for the price. It served me well and was a great beginner katana. This time however, I wanted something a bit higher quality and with full fittings. When you look at the two blades, it is a night and day difference. Don’t get me wrong they are both magnificent looking blades, but there are basically no faults with the new blade. The hamon itself is absolutely hypnotic and of hard not to just stare at. Not only that but the sword came in a box with a protective bag that you can keep as well. The amount of craftsmanship that went into this blade compared to the other is clear. The best part was they gave me a coupon for 25% off. I could not resist buying this and I hope this blade lasts generations beyond me so I will be taking great care of it. Well worth the paying more and they gave shipping info and updates the whole way here.

Hello, as of today 6/14/2024 and this survey, the sword itself is awesome and we appreciate you expediting our purchase yesterday. Unfortunately, we still can not login to your website and all of our emails to you regarding website technical support, as well as the emails we sent regarding tracking and this order have gone unanswered. We have shared all of our contact information with you and it is our hope, you contact us so we can login properly before our next purchase.
Here is just one of our emails to you yesterday.
Hello, we are not sure if any of our emails have reached you, as we still have not received one email or phone call response and are still unable to login to your website to track our order. Surprisingly, we received our sword in question this afternoon and we thank you for getting this issue resolved. The sword looks and feels right and we appreciate your work and determination to get this shipped to us today. We were not expecting delivery, only a response. We do respectfully suggest you find a solution for your website problem and log in issues, we still cannot log in. We also respectably ask that customer service address the communication problems we just experienced, No responding to customer emails or phone calls is terrible business and will slowly but surely hurt what we feel is an outstanding company with a great reputation. Communication has solved almost every problem we have ever experienced in our own business and we hope to do business with you again.
Thank you for finding a solution today.

I don't have a pic of the sword only a video but I do have a pic of what it did to my thumb when I dropped it and reached for it mid-fall. The sword obviously came super sharp, it looked just like the pictures on the website. It cuts good (not just fingers) so please be careful. Cuts bamboo like butter. It's definitely carbon steel not stainless. The weight is good not too heavy but with enough heft it'll swing good. The hamon is beautiful, the saya feels good and durable. I've bought swords for about $200 that weren't anywhere near the quality of this sword. I got it on discount from the website, TrueKatana also upped the discount after it sat in my cart for a week so I couldn't pass it up at that point. Took about 7 days to get it even from outside the US. The only issue I've found is it needs two mekugi (pegs through the handle and tang) instead of just one. I got it for use not for show so two would've been preferable for rigidity. Also if you plan on sharpening you need the right stones to polish or it will scratch the blade. I felt good with my purchase, definitely got my money's worth. I will get another as soon as possible. Also I'm giving 5 stars because this is the first one I've bought at this price range and with only one thing I considered a con (the single mekugi) I have no reason to not give a full 5 star rating. I hope this helps anyone considering making a purchase.

Very happy with this purchase, always wanted a legit katana. I’ve had friends purchase ones in the past that I felt were low quality, especially for what they paid. This one feels like you’re holding a quality sword that could actually be used for its intended purpose.

Absolutely love the katana! Although, I haven't done any testing. Also half interested in getting a different sheath for it, the current one is good, just looking at a potential different style. Thank your smiths for they're time and dedication for me please. Thank you!

I am extremely impressed with the quality, craftsmanship, and beauty of both the katana and tanto I received. My only complaint is that processing took longer than expected and the customer service department was basically unresponsive when I emailed checking for an update. That being said I can highly recommend TrueKatana and would certainly buy from them in the future. Katana is well balanced, very sharp, and easily cut through many bundles of bamboo with no imperfections or damage to the blade.

A friend of mine is a sword enthusiast. He was impressed with the quality and attention to detail. The price was good and was shipped in a timely manner. I'm making a case to hold 2 swords, so I'll be coming back to TrueKatana for a second.
