This is my second review as the first on was cut short due to user error. LOL!! Im very happy with the quality and prompt delivery. This is my seventh order and have yet to be dissatisfied. As advertised this sword is very sharp and well assembled. I have thus far found zero flaws. I will continue to order from True Swords as long as they continue to sell quality swords such as this.

The fit, finish, feel and overall quality matches the price. My only real complaint is that it needs more steel in the handle. It is full tang, just not beefy enough for good balance and rigidity.

where do I start, the blade looks nice, its straight, came oiled, fittings are tight. Only complaints here are that on my particular sword the wrap on the handle was poorly done and doesnt look like its going to stay forever, and the blade was only fairly sharp, not even close to razor sharp, ill have to learn to use my whetstone better. all in all great sword for the price you cant beat it. Ive been shopping from trueswords for years thanks guys.

I just received my sword and this was my first sword and it is absolutely amazing i but thru its test today and it performed very well but it does not come razor sharp but just a few minutes with the stone it comes almost exactly like the picture the only thing different was engraved on the piece at the end of the handle there is a samurai holding his sword while on a horse.

Few imperfections. First the Habaki was extremely loose and looks odd and different from the on the picture. Second the wooden pegs were poorly put into the tang holes, however were not loose. Third the tip was blunted and looked as if it was already used and returned. Forth the blade rattles a little bit in it's sheath and also just from sheathing and re-sheathing the blade a few times, it is already very loose and won't stay in nice and snug anymore. Last and most importantly is that the entire sword it self is bent in one way. From the tip to the handle it looks like a parentheses ). I just got this for a few hours too. Overall not bad for the money. Might just me mine, but I'll try fixing some of the problems by me self.

The shipping was so fast. It took only 2 business days. This is my very first sword and I already feel different, like a samurai. LOL. Thank you so much true swords. (Grade: A+)

I'm so in love with this sword. The quality of it is awesome for such a cheap price. Delivery was amazingly quick. True Swords has yet to let me down.

This is a great sword for an unbeatable price well balanced sharp and the make of it is just stunning. I practice my nikitsuke,chiburi, and noto everyday with this sword since I got it and it is amazing.

beautifully made well balanced and sharp. definitely going to be ordering from True Swords again. swift delivery and well packed to prevent damage

this is my first order and i am very pleased. i haven't done a cutting test yet but the sword is great, a little oily but not so much to change my rating. all and all i love this sword.
