Reverse Blade Anime Sword

this is a wonderful sword for the protector or executioner in you or if you need a good defence weapon this is it I have had mine for 8 years the leather was a little loose but other then that the sword is one of a kind thank you true swords we will do business a long time on a side note can you guys get the sword from the movie AZUMI the one with the spring loaded hidden blade in the hilt I would sooo buy it and BATTLE-READY swords from the hit anime sword art online kirito's and asuna's sword aswell,but anyway the sword is RAZOR sharp don't touch the edge all in all the sakabato is now my master sword I have mastered it in eight short years its a excellent sword if you have mastered everything from a Spanish saber to the claymore sword I recommend this sword next its weight is decent for training but I would advise covering the ray skin and leather in nylon wrapping to protect the ray skin and give an all over better grip thanks you true swords now if you can only get thouse other four swords when you do i'll be calling with credit card in hand thanks again keep up the good work.

I've been looking for the reverse blade for years!! According to the history I've read--not the comic- I'd never heard of the comic series!! From what I've read it was the reverse use of this sword used to defeat the Prominent Master by his surprise at the technique of the wrong side of the blades cuts being backwards.

if you want quality both physical and visual, this is the blade for you. it came in good shape and the only thing that was damaged was the Styrofoam protector inside, with that said its a damn good blade and damn good service from trueswords.. you'll be seeing me again in two days..<br /><br />fedex delivered at 11:10 am this morning 3 to 4 day shipping .order placed on Friday the 21st . hows that for a quicky

this thing is great. ad does no justice to this awesome blade.

Absolutely astonishing! this sword is better than i was hoping it would be. the blade is very sharp, the hilt wraping is very secure, the tsuba is flawless and the blade dose not have a single defect. the only real complaint i have is that the blade jiggles in the saya mainly its just slightly irritating than anything but all in all this sword is well worth the cash.<br />I would recommend this sword to any sword collector.<br /><br />Thanks again true swords!

I bought this sword as a gift to a sensei. When I opened it, I was immediately impressed with the design and feel of the sword. The only complaint about the product I would have is that it is slightly difficult to open(release from the scabbard), partly because it is new, and partly because the tsuba-end of the blade(and the gold piece that "attaches" it to the tsuba/handle) is a little thick. The sword was without shipping damage, however it took a little longer than expected to get to me. If I wasn't giving it as a gift, I would definitely keep it to myself to add to my collection! I will definitely be returning to True Swords for future purchases!

Very nice quality sharp down to the last detail, well worth the money.

Beautiful sword, well worth the money!

Amazing sword! Great buy, Razor sharp and beautiful blade. I have bought it a couple months ago which was the first one i bought and the sheath was loose but i called true swords and they sent me a replacement and i just sent the other one back to them today. They handled the problem perfectly and i am happy with the out come. <br /><br /><br />The replacement swords sheath fits awesome no movement and it has a tight fit.<br /><br />I will continue to buy from this site as a loyal customer.<br /><br />Thanks again true swords!

This Sword is amazing. The gripping and the weight to the sword is just godly. This is a perfect sword to collect for collectors. This sword is just amazing in so many ways.

Im a big kenshin guy and i have to say that thing is just amazing. From the amazing tight ito that just has such a good grip, to that razor edge of the reverse blade, it just amazing. But, my only small complaint is that the saya does not hold the blade very tightly.

Everything was as described.<br /><br />Will definitely order from True Swords again.

all i have to say is awsome . this blade is amazing . every thing is as described . perfect.

Simply put, Beautiful!! Special note should be made to anyone not familiar with this as a reverse blade sword, so when returning the blade (Noto) be extra careful!

Just got here in two days. It is simply stunning. This is truly a blade worthy of the Batt&#333;sai.

i LOVE this sword. this is my second sword from trueswords (first was a $20 sword that i learned was display only the hard way) and i am VERY impressed. this sword is razor sharp and cut through a gallon water jug with a nice clean cut. it also cut my forehead easily when it hit my head when i helped a friend with a movie project. the only downside is there is wax on the blade but can easily be wiped off. it also becomes scratched easily so be careful.

My first purchase from True Swords. Came in 3 days as promised. Quality of sword was extremely nice. Really nothing bad to say.

This was my first purchase from Trueswords and it arrived as fast as everyone said it would. I have been collecting swords for years now, and this one is easily my favorite. Its sharp, sturdy, and has a very nice weight to it. <br /><br />You wont regret buying this sword.

After about careful research about battle ready katanas and what to look for in swords in certain price ranges, I decided on this sword. I then spent another month going to this site and just looking at the sword because I couldnt get it for a while. <br /><br />Well I finally got it and all I can say is wow. This sword has met and passed my expectation. <br /><br />First off the shipping and delivery was just godly. I literally ordered this at 9:54am Thursday, woke up, went out side the next day and it was waiting for me. <br /><br />Onto the actual blade. When they said it was sharp you were warned. I was cleaning off the initial gunk and the damn sharp side cut through the cloth and sliced my thumb up pretty good. Had to put gauze over it.<br /><br />I'm no expert so I couldnt go into detail about the advanced texture of the blade but from all my research I can safely say this sword is top notch. The sheath, however does have a little ding in it but thats the price you pay when fedEx ships it. <br /><br />Overall this blade is a must have. This was my first sword and I'm glad I went with Trueswords to get it.

One of the nicest katanas i have ordered from trueswords. I must say that this is probably the most quality sakabato u will find on the internet for such a low price. I've checked out reverse blade swords on other websites that ran from $100-120 and most of them seemed lower quality (i.e. several either didn't have a blood groove or hamon or were curved strangely in the opposite direction) than this one. The edge comes extremely sharp and the solid construction of this katana cannot be denied. Both the high carbon blade and tsuba are very thick and not too heavy or light. The hand guard is a classic miyamato musashi design and the sheath is very nice as well--however like any more expensive sword the sheath does have some wax/glue stuff inside that will rub off onto the blade when removing and replacing the sword in it. Gotta say i couldn't be more impressed w/the accuracy and quality of this replica sakabato. Trueswords couldn't have made it any better of a deal. If u love kenshin u won't regret buying this one. No complaints!!!

alsome sword make a nice sound when you swing it need to be sharpen though but other then that best sword i have i am defently coming back for more thanks true swords

This is the best sword that trueswords has I think. The blade is very sharp and well balanced. The sword does not have any flaws whatsoever. 10 out of 10 for this work of art. I recommend this sword to everyone that shops at trueswords.

By FAR my favorite blade from Trueswords... The blade came out with a little glue on it but easily fixed... The craftsmanship is amazing, the blade is wicked sharp and it gives a great grip... All in all VERY impressed

This sword is quite amazing. The weight is excellent, it seems to flow. The ito wrapping is tight, none of the fittings are loose at all. The blade is thick, and straight as an arrow. <br /><br />The back side is quite sharp, it passed the paper test quite easily. I was surprised at the point though, both sides are sharpened, whereas in the picture it looks as though the cutting side would be blunt. <br /><br />The saya is quite nice, a tight fit for the sword. It's not as thick of wood as some swords, but not paper thin either. <br /><br />This sword feels like it was made for me. I love it.

This blade is perfect in every way. The instant I picked it up I felt like Kenshin, that I did. I'm very glad I paid a little extra for the full tang.<br /><br />If you like Rurouni Kenshin, I definitely suggest buying this sword. It will make a great addition to any collection.

I love it, very nice blade, has already tripped out all my friends who checked it out.

The blade is sharp, though it could've been much sharper, you can tell it's good steel, it's made beautifully in all details. I LOVE it! I'm definitely gonna buy again from true swords.

Got it for my birthday Ready for action thank you my beautiful wife I LOVE YOU MORE THAN LIFE IT'S SELF!!!!!!!!!!!!! Will buy from true swords again.

This is the first sword I bought from this site. When it came in I immediately looked at it for scratches or dings or anything like that and didn't find any. Its an awesome sword and was beautifully made. I recommended to a friend of mine. Once again...AWESOME!!!

this is the third sword ive ordered from this site and its the best sword ive gotten so far!!i love this sword.<br />i will definitely order from true swords again.

This is the best Kenshin Sakabato reproduction I've ever seen and has become one of my favorite sword in my colloection. It shipped quickly and was in great condition when received. Will always buy from true swords.

I must say that this sword left me speechless........IT IS STUNNING! BEAUTIFUL! AWESOME, etc etc. I'm really happy with my reverse katana and I will definately purchase from TS again. TS keeps impressing me

Absolutely amazing. From the expertly etched (I almost couldn't tell the difference, but that magnifying glass doesn't miss much) hamon to the razor sharp edge, I was 110% happy with my purchase. It was received in a timely manner, and in perfect condition. A great addition to anyone's arsenal.

GREAT! This sword is a must buy for any serious sword collectors, or rurouni kenshin fans.

Great sword.. very sharp. fast delivery.. i would definitely shop at trueswords again!

The sword is beautiful, the only real gripe I have is that the scabbard isn't a tight fit and the sword slides out too easily. The guard is smaller compared to the cheaper reverse blade that I own, as well as the length of the handle. <br /><br />However I can tell just from looking at it, that it is a better quality product, the steel is thicker, the tip looks the way it should, and it just feels like a much higher quality sword. Having no real martial arts experience I can only go by just how it looks as well as feels and the sword is well worth the price you pay for it, I will be doing business with True Swords in the future.

for the most part it was a great buy. the only problem i had with it was that the tip was bent some. it wasnt much but just enough for me to notice. other than that is was a good buy

Got this sword earlier. It suprisingly came fast. Got it in 2 days. Right in time for Christmas. But as for the sword...Its real sharp. Poked myself a couple times when testing the tip. The bad thing is that the Habaki is loose and the blade had a lot of oil on it. This was my second sword I bought and this had more oil than my other sword. It's a little harder to sheathe and unsheathe. But overall its a good buy.

very excellent sword. sheath was damaged a little. will buy from true swords again

I have a few problems with the sword, firstly it does not have real ray skin on the handle. secondly im not sure if it was supposed to but it has a fake hamon it doesn't say it does in ad but the picture makes it look so.Thirdly it doesn't have a blood groove i don't really care for the blood groove but still it would be nice. and a few more little things wrong with the sword that i don't care to even list but their are others. for the first time i am not happy with trueswords but as always fast shipping.
