This is for display only, and a crappy display piece at that. The sword itself has a quarter tang that is pinned to the handle, with a bolt tang spot-welded to it. If you hit anything with it that's remotely solid, this sword will break at that weld. Luckily the pin will help keep it from flying out of the handle. Speaking of the Handle, It's solid plastic, wrapped with the cheapest nylon cord available. The scabbard is a thin aluminum tube with plastic inserts. to house the various hidden weapons. The Throwing knife/dagger doubles as a spearhead that can be attached to the end of the scabbard, and is the sharpest blade in the set. The mini tantos bend SUPER easy. The yawara is fairly solid, and is probably the only thing that could actually be used as a weapon. The throwing stars are dull but will stick into soft wood targets. I would never purchase this again, but if you decide too just leave it on display.

Sword is really cool. I wouldn't recommend trying to actually use it for test or anything. It's a great display piece good for conversation. The throwing stars might be okay for actual use buy it have no way of testing myself

I bought this sword a while back and I noticed right away a couple of problems. The blade is very soft carbon steel and bends with almost no effort. It also sits uncomfortably in the hand as the handle is too large and the cord wrapping is rough. The small weapons it comes with are of fair quality but nothing to brag about. Scabbard is surprisingly not wood or plastic but metal. Not bad for a wall hanger but for all you zombie apocalypse types, look elsewhere this is not the sword for you, I personally suggest a machete instead of a sword. Hope it helps.

This sword looks great but upon swinging it a couple times the sword bends like aluminum along with the throwing knives that come with it. It looks like the didn't Harden the metal.

this sword holds up great. blade is made of carbon steel. the small knives are ok. the throwing knife and the yawara stick are great additions to my weapon collection

Not a bad sword but if you are in a combat situation, you will want something different. None of the weapons on this were meant for cutting. If you get this, expect to do machining in order to have the weapons fully functional.

Knives were made very poorly but orverall its good but comes blunt but that is an easy fix

Its a great looking sword but I'd like more info like what type of steel,is the sword battle ready or just for decode and is the hilt put together with prongs or just fastened or screwed on like manufactured swords

the sword looks great but once you actually try using it for anything the blade falters. i had taken maybe 7-8 swings with mine and the blade bent over 45 degrees near the tip.

I bought this sword set last year and found that shurikens and the knives are poor at best. But the sword it self has takken a beatting (after I put an edge on it) and still holding. I recommend it to anyone
