I picked up one of these just to see what I was going to get, and I will say totally worth it. Great blade, well balanced, very light, and well built. M48 from my person experience makes very high quality products. I will be purchasing more. Thanks Bud K.

I bought two which came in the mail today. They were just how I thought they would. I can't wait to test these bad boys out over the weekend!

Just got it in the mail today so far it looks and feels of great quality definitely recommend!! Will say that it is heavy like a tomahawk.

Great piece. It is not designed to be twirled and used for fancy kata crap. It is designed to hack, pierce and slash. It meets those demands with ease.

Its great I got two you just cant have one and the weight is perfect.

Ok lets say i was kind of skeptical about getting this because a kama is not my first choice...but thisthing turned out to be ppretty amazing. .it was even more fun after i attached a chain to it..all i gotta say is the ninja in your soul demands it...it comes natural. .oh yeah it was in very good condition. .tested it by putting it through a table so its strong and sharp..get this ok..thanks true swords..

I bought a pair of these kama. As a practitioner I have to say that they are poorly balanced. The maker should add a little weight to the handle. Traditional kama are not so top heavy. Extra heavy blades are great if all you are going to do is hack with it. That all being said, I think they are wicked cool. Most people are not going to use them the way a kobudo expert would. They are solid, sharp, and probably effective in anyone's hands.

Listen to the other reviews! Get one! its bad ass! (All though mine came with a bit of a burr on the tip like someone gave it a good tap on the concrete or it got dropped accidentally during packaging. not too hard to fix but the strong ass steel this is made from made it a slight challenge.) All in all? 20 out of 5 stars.

Im new to kamas, but this is too cool not to buy, so far ive enjoyed it with no problems (made in china though). M48 is the only brand I actually trust thats made in china, but I do wish to find more gear made in america. I use it for cutting cactus, ive taken off small tree limbs with it, just dont take off your own leg with this thing!

This weapon was a great gift for my nephew. It was good quality and he has enjoyed adding it to his collection and practicing with it.
