this literally became my favorite blade that i currently own. anyone thats looking for a sword with that perfect feel to it, i strongly recommend this sword. it looks fantastic it feels fantastic, i give 5 out of 5..

AMAZING AMAZING AMAZING!!!!! the color on my blabe matches pretty close kinda orange copper look on it BEAUTIFUL BLADE the handle is very nice and ferm the faox leather wrap is amazing fealling in the hands i love it the gold in the handle are plastic like but dont look like it and i dont mind. the fill thing is tightly together very nice. the only down thing i can say is the katana into the sheath really tight and kinda hard to pull out. but there is a and this may be big to some one so THERE IS A WHITE CHINA ON THE LEFT SIDE OF THE BLADE. but case is amazing very nice stand is good in all id say very wearth it.

This sword is amazing the blade is great quality. The leather tsuka is a great quality that this sword has and is tied very tightly. The blade is Copper colored not red when you actually get it so the picture can be misleading. The blade is great quality and is a blade that will last very long with proper sword care.

Everything is good about this sword. The blade has a nice color. The handle has tight wrappings. The blade is sharp. I recommend this sword to anyone who thinks this is a great buy. Thanks True Swords.

I bought this sword a few years back, and while it has held up well enough, one thing to this day that annoys me is that its tip came with this wierd poorly defined edge. To this day even with years of regular sharpening, the thick dull edge of the tip is to wide to get sharp. Its lack of even sharpness the full length of the blade and the odd deformity eventually had me take it apart and just leave the blade in its sheath to show as an oddity now and then. Ive never bought another blade from this forge, though swords bought at true swords of the musashi/musha brand often at a lower price point have proved so reliable Ive bought several over the years to give as gifts to those starting to collect or practice cutting.

Ok, well, first off... when it arrived, the scabbard had a scratch on it about 3 inches long, which I found to be a problem. Secondly, the guard was a bit warped, leaning slightly to the right. Also, there are some nicks of silver on the ends of the black guard. There's a bit of color coming off the sword collar, mainly from drawing it and putting it back the sheath. I heard from some other reviews that there's a small word "China" on the blade, but I couldn't find it. The box is beautiful, the sword bag has an excellent picture of a samurai posing with his sword drawn, and it also includes a single racked stand. All in all a good buy, but I expected slightly better quality for the money.

I just had a whirl with my sword and am at the moment satisfied, however I am having trouble getting the pegs out and they seem to be in really tight and seemingly crooked.

Got my sword in the mail, fast delivery. Unwrapped it for christmas, was excited for a long lasting friendship. Upon maintenance the pins were aligned crooked and will not get out no matter how hard I try to get them out. This is disappointing because I was expecting a quality sword to own for a lifetime instead of one I can't disassemble. Besides that it was nice and oiled upon getting it out of the box. Although not razor sharp, can cut through water bottles, and is great for stand-alone practice. 2/5, Next time the sword maker should check to see if the sword is quality.

I hate to say it but: display peice.<br />For this price, it is one hell of a display peice. I mean that in the best way possible.<br /><br />The finish on this sword is flawless except for CHINA placed on the blade near the guard. The leather on the handle is excellent quality and wrapped very tight. It has a great performance weight which is where it becomes deceiving.<br />Upon sharpening thissword you will realize that its finish is far from permanent.<br /><br />The box for storage is great, the sword bag is great, the stand it comes with is a little tight but it works. Honestly its an over all great display peice, and if you want a real eye catcher then by all means grab it.<br /><br />IF however you are an advocate of any art of martial standing involving a blade of any sort and you (like any true swords man) want your weapon sharp enough to scar the air then you maay want to look for a different sword.<br /><br />2/5 five stars for misleading description. 3/5 for quality of product.<br /><br />----<br /><br />True Swords reply:<br /><br />At the first mention of any concern we have contacted our customer to ensure their order experience is a positive one and that any matters are well resolved.

Not simply a display piece, this sword is produced with the materials and construction method needed to make it suitable for functional cutting use of all reasonable targets. This includes rolled tatami mats and plastic bottles filled with water. Graceful, the sword will perform best when used with proper swing form. The blade comes sharpened by the factory and we check the sharpness of each as part of our inspection before packing and shipping. <br /><br />The reddish copper color blade finish has been permanently fixed to the steel using an electronic process, not a paint job or baked on finish. The finish does not rub off, however if you remove the steel which holds the finish then you would expose the steel underneath. Such steel removal could take place by using a sharpener which by design removes steel to hone the edge, and the newly exposed steel would have the normal steel color. <br /><br />We have made every option available to our customer multiple times, including that of exchange or a full refund.

The information is wrong about the anodized color staying forever. I stuck the sword into the ground and now the tip is silver.<br /><br />----<br /><br />True Swords reply:<br /><br />At the first mention of any concern we have contacted our customer to ensure their order experience is a positive one and that any matters are well resolved.
