Reviews
Overall first impression
"To start with the sword came super fast with standard shipping. Big bonus with that. It is well made and everything was fitted tight and snug. It weighed more than what I was expecting which is okay. Now my only problem that I had that isn't as much as a problem as it is a personal pet peeve. Was the two pins were put in slanted and wasn't done to clean. But it had no problem with the fittings. I think that for the price, it was a great purchase that I would make again."
wonderful
"this sword without a fake Harmon line is superb and extremely sharp out of the box with no edge burrs, Tight, great balance and at a give away price for the extreme quality it is. Buy one today. It is a serious threat to anything it hits."
Great sword for anyone who never had a katana.
"Got this sword yesterday, it is my first katana and I have to say I am very pleased for the low price. It came sharp and so far I have no problems with the tsuba or the blade itself. No rattling and very easy to swing."
Perfect
"This sword is perfect for cutting water bottles, grass mats, rolled newspaper, bamboo, and other things. I highly recommenced this sword to my friend and he is going to get one but they are currently out of stock."
Very Pleased
"I would have expected to pay + $70 for this sword. Very solid and the engraving adds an overall perfect demeanor for the sword. Already recommending this to everyone who asks about it. Thanks BudK!"
Just AWESOME
"I just received my Raging Waters Katana today , I must say that this thing is just AWESOME and came pretty sharp, but needs to be sharper, which will not be an issue, it has good weight to it and truly is priced way to low, but I am not complaining at all. Thanks BUDK again for something great! also received for free BLACK LEGION MACHETE WITH 2PC THROWING SET and I just love them"
Above average
"I think that this sword is better quality than the price suggests. Sharp enough, can be sharpened though. Carbon steel, so it's battle ready. Full tang, so it's sturdy. Nice weight to it. Had a nice and fun test cut or two with it. The heavy blood groove is nice. I haven't disassembled it to test the ease and tang, although the bamboo pins are a nice sign. It's a bit short, but I guess most Katana are. That's more realistic too, I've learned, so it's actually a plus. There's a nice soft cloth wrap around the sword and nice wooden scabbard as well. Besides being a little sharper, it only lacks the cool wavy design from a nice smithing trick near the sharp part of blade which prevents this sword from being in upper classes. The missing wavy line, a smithing mark that may go hand in hand with clay and making the sharp better extra hard so it be sharper and sturdier, is actually more important than the missing razor sharp feature, on that note. Anyway, thanks BUDK and Musha. For being special."
raging waters katana
"This is the real deal people, the weapon is beautiful no shaking parts everything is tight full tang battle ready katana. it comes sharpened you will need to put a little bit finer edge on it. They put a good edge on it at the forge any sharper it would cut through the box. This weapon is worth every penny. It has two pins in the handle so you can break the sword apart. i am thinking of having they blade etched to make it mine give it that personal touch. Buy this sword you will not be sorry if you are the people at BudK will give you thirty days to decide. you wont return it though.R Stewart"
