Blade Brotherhood Katana And Scabbard - High-Quality Manganese Steel Blade, Wooden Handle, PU Grip, Metal Alloy Fittings - Length 44”

I purchased this Kojiro Brotherhood Katana sword because it is actually a Chinese sword, patterned after Han and Tang dynasties and possibly early Song Dynasty. Definitely it follows the straight blade, straight handle patterns of the Han Dynasty and Tang Dynasty. I had always wanted a Chinese sword to hang on my wall, even though it was not a high priority on my list. The motivation was that it was on sale, for about half the original price. I received exactly what I expected. The blade is sharp, not razor sharp. Not important since I'm not going into melee battle combat with this sword. The blade is thinner than what I would expect for a historical Chinese sword replica. Don't fight a real battle with this thin blade. But I repeat, I was looking for a wall-hanger, not an actual battle sword from history. So that is where it is going.

This is a very fine piece- extremely sharp too, although, and this might just be me, but after awhile, the hilt becomes rather wobbly, and I'm a little scared to swing this thing around before the blade falls out... Be extremely careful when handling this blade - especially if you run into the issue I did.
