Sorry I have been so late in getting a review in. I have to say fist of all that this is truely a beautiful and deadly blade. I have always been a COLD STEEL fan and once again not let down in their product. The 88BK Katana is great for the price and completely functional in all ways. The balance,edge, and overall workmanship is great. Swords are definately functional art work. Your prices and service are the best on the web hands down. Their is not another company that can come close (believe me when I say I have searched roughly 50 or more so sites). Thank you TRUE SWORDS and I will be definately be useing you for all my future sword purchases.
