Bought this knife just a few days ago, received it quickly, and I love it. The hilt, sub hilt, and pommel are much darker than in the picture, more a smoky black, but it fits the color of the grip so elegantly. It came sharp, not dull at all, and is very sturdy. Only complaint is that it came with some water marks on the steel that wont come out so easily. But nonetheless, this is without a doubt, the MOST beautiful knife I will ever have. Completely and utterly satisfied. Thank you True Swords! You rule!

If there was ever a knief to buy, this most certainly is that knief! It feels so incredible, and the weight of it just comfirms how awesome it is, and just how much damage it could do if used. I imagine if I was ever in a bad situation, this would get me out of it lol
