Picked this up on a 30% off sale - it's a great deal! Mine fit together perfectly - all holes lined up and there were exactly the number of screws needed. There were no flaws on any of the pieces. They are all a flat black and the wood is relatively smooth. I plan to spray mine with a granite textured finish to give it that stone appearance. Of course I'll tape off the decorative pieces and the resting grooves. The grooves will get a black felt addition so the sayas are not resting on bare wood. Gorilla Glue works well for this. It will be nice to have my collection in one place.

For the money, it is fine. However, finish quality is scarred and it looks as if it was sprayed with Rustoleum (actually a generic poor quality version). This will be relegated to a closet for my lower grade cutters (like the POS Shinwas). For the money, what would you expect? Suits the purpose of a closet storage rack.

Stands 41 inches tall, length is 14 inches from the ends of the legs(13 inches is length from the ends of the sword holders, and is width is 14.5 inches at the base and 6.5 at the sword holders. As stated earlier from another review, this can hold more than swords. I bought a spear with this shipment as well and it can hold it you just have to put one side close to the blade of the spear, and therefore must also be aware of the length you are adding to the space in which you are placing your stand and swords.Very happy with this buy, the screws did match up for me. Reason for 4 stars was that one side had some excess glue coming from the symbol at the top as well as some smudge marks on the bottom bar, but im sure those can come off, looks like might had been from the packers fingerprints or glove tips if they had something on it (possibly the blade oil that they put on the blade itself for weapons). Put really unnoticeable, and you can always make that the back side that faces towards the wall.Overall extremely pleased to now have an organized place to put swords and other weaponry.

This is a sturdy stand that is easy to assemble.I now have a great way to display my sword collection.

The holes to insert the screws may not be correctly position so there is a risk that you will have to do manual reconstruction if you buy this

XD considering how many weapons we have bought from this site, I needed something like this. It can hold more than swords.

Awesome sword display stand. It does everything it is supposed to and looks really slick to boot, you can't afford not to have this.

Well, I give it up to budk for this outstanding sword stand. Really sturdy, extremely nice even a touch of elegance with the samurai emblem on the top of the stand. A+++

very nicely crafted alot smaller than you think and assembly is required

Assembly was a little shaky but this came together nicly. One of the samural displays on the head board fell off sadly during the shiping process. Gorilla glue will fix it.
