The Bushido Genko Samurai Katana offers a hand-forged, 1045 carbon steel blade that rivals the sharpness of most $500 katana swords. But, this katana was constructed with more economical handle materials to allow for it to be an extremely effective martial arts sword, with a rock-bottom price tag. What this sword lacks in fancy decor, it makes up for in pure slashing and slicing power. Buy yours today and we promise you won't be disappointed!

My expectations were surprisingly exceeded.
"My expectations were surprisingly exceeded. I wasn't expecting much for around 50 dollars(with shipping and handling). Everything was very uniform and straight, however the blade was slightly curved to the right. But it was very slight, I had to really look for it. The tang seemed to be full, I did locate the bamboo pegs, but I still haven't swung the sword at full strength. I'm sure it would hold up, but I'm not quite ready to try it (also not mentioned in the description was the specific kind of carbon steel, but I can tell you it's 1045)The blade was pretty dull (not "very sharp" as advertised). The pros outweigh the cons though. It was actually a very detailed katana and though you can't see it well in the picture, there is a dragon design on the handle of the sword. The sheath is covered with a matte black coating that I surprisingly like. The shipping was nice and quick, and it came on the shipping day determined. For the money, I definitely give this five out five stars."

just got it today and
"just got it today and lets just say money well spent i love this sword and plus this is my first of many katana's that will buy from this site"
So I got it after
"So I got it after six days of ordering it (because of the Hurricane Sandy), and I am absolutely pleased with it. It's exactly as the description said and very sharp too. Everything came perfect. The only thing that I noticed (and so did some other users here) was the Oda symbol in the Saya is darker than the picture, but still detailed. Otherwise from that, everything seems well. It's a great sword for everything looking for real katana and I really recommend it to everything else. I will look forward to buy more from Musha/Musashi."

"This sword is great, it was nice and sharp. the only thing was that the habaki was sratched and the blade was a little dirty but it was easy to clean. i will definetly buying Musashi again!"
