Great value in the sword

"This is a sword that has a legacy. It is elegant to hold. It cuts through the wind with a real shadow dance. It is magnificent in your hand. I like it a lot. Jim Carrey style. It should work with the 7cr13 blade as is but I wish I would’ve at least ordered the D2 tool steel kind. I heard it doesn’t hold an edge. I give it 4. 5 stars"

Quality blades

"I have purchased multiple Honshu made blades from this site over the years and I am always impressed with the high quality and the decent price. Always beyond sharp edges, lightweight, great handle and overall feel of confidence in each weapon when I hold it. I HIGHLY recommend any Honshu product they offer, you will be glad you purchased it."

Great gladius for the money

"It's a great versatile sword. It cuts quite well with exceptionally sharp edge it came with. It performed well when cutting weeds and saplings. The handle feels pretty good overall. It's fun to use! The sword it's self weighs 1.11lb. The leather sheath weighs 9oz."

— Joel S. (5/5)

Great sword at a good price!

"I ordered this sword as a first sword from Honshu to test the brand and I have to say I'm more than impressed. On this particular model the steel in the blade is not really great but I knew that before I ordered it however the build quality is far superior than any other sword I've ever seen in this price range. This is by far the highest quality Stainless Steel sword I've personally seen. Most are 'Display Quality' at best but this sword looks and feels like a solid battle ready sword. Great job and I'll definitely be ordering some more swords from Honshu!"

Kickass Sword

"I saw it and had to have it. As soon as it arrived in unboxed it and was not disappointed. A little bit of what looks to be leftover glue on the pommel but it does not sway my opinion. 10/10 and will be a returning customer."

— Liam G. (5/5)
