Rurouni Kenshin Manga Anime Katana Sword With Scabbard

Buy! Buy! Buy ! Its Great :)

Love the sword!!!! You cannot beat the price. Shipping came in super duper quick :) True swords has the most amazing customer service if you ever have a question or concern.

The saya was chipped but its not like anybody will notice it if its small, mine was a couple of inches but besides that its good for display. The blade was blunt on one side and a little dull on the other, but the tip is a bit sharp. Anyway the sword is good overall.

I ordered this yesterday for my birthday.I can't wait to get it this is my first but not last sword from trueswords

Wow, let me just say that this katana has more than i'd expected. While not being the best katana ever it is one of the best for its price. The blade looks and feels nice, very balanced and solidly put together. The Ito is nicely wrapped however the kashira(end knob) is slightly lose but its not close to falling off or anything and it doesnt detract from the swords awesomeness. The blade isn't sharp on either side, but that can be easily fixed. And the saya is wonderfully simple yet elegant. Unfortunatly the end of the saya was slightly chipped during shipping, but thats not true swords fault and some black paint fixed it right away.<br />Overall this is a wonderful sword for the price, and I highly reccomend it to anyone looking for a first sword, or someone who is an avid Rurouni Kenshin fan. I look forward to eventually purchasing the more expensive version as well. Wonderful purchase.

This sword was my second buy, and I love it! Everything about this sword screams "KENSHIN!!" It's light and feels great in my hands. Another awesome sword from TrueSwords!

(on dad's account) I got this sword for my B-Day (which was yesterday) and all I can say is stunning. The detail is much better than what I see in the picture and its just wow. This is a must buy for anybody who buys or collects swords.

All I have to say is wow. This sword was truely amazing and is the 3rd sword I purchased on this website. It looks so realistic and the shipping was incredible. I ordered the sword and it came in a day after. The pictures on this website doesn't do it any justic. It looks so much more amazing in person, and look at the price! It cant get any lower then that.

I got my sword yesterday and I've got to say its a nice sword. The blade isn't sharp but, has fine craftsmenship.Also the hand guard is cool. I also like the fact that it is a reverse blade insted of a regular blade.

I ordered mine today and i can`t wait to get it! It`s gonna be so AWSOME!^^ It looks sort of sharp,and i like the gaurd...it should be good.

Absolutely beautiful. The blade is not sharp but the craftsmanship is first rate. The only downside to this sword is the small engraving next to the tsuba that says "440 Stainless China". A stunning display sword.

This is a pretty good reverse blade sword for the price. Got it as a present for a friend and he loves it.

This sword completes me!!!! Simply put, its amazing and well worth its low price! Any fan of kenshin, or any sword collector in general, should have this sword. The picture doesnt do the sword justice. Guys at truesword.com know what they're doing.

I just ordered this sword about a minute or two ago, and can't wait for it to arrive, it's the perfect alternative to the sharpened blade (for those of us who can't afford a $100 sword) hehe but is a blessing to us collectors who have searched so long for something so close to that used in the anime. =D Thanks trueswords, for delivering to us collectors!

This sword was much better than what I had expected. It was AMAZING True Swords is the best.

I've had this sword for a few months now and I just wanted to say that this sword and I have ripped through all my friends and their "swords". It's really nice to have a reverse bladed weapon for training and this sword is god, like Kenshin. Don't pass this sword by just because you never watched Kenshin because its worth it wheather you want it to show off on a wall, or make sparks fly with a friend.

I"M SO HAPPY! YES! I GOT IT TODAY AT AROUND 11:00 AM AND IT'S SWEEEET! The only bad thing was that I stupidly touched the blade and got a smuge on it. But i'm thinking, hay it's ok 'cause I also bought a sword clening (it's right in front of me)for 11$.But see the thing is, it says it has rice papper in it and it dose NOT.But i'll wright a reviw about that later ,but anyway about the sword...<br />BUY IT!<br /><br /><br />But you know,I payed like 60$ total but I got pepper spray and that kit to.Oh and that stand is wroth it especially if this your frist time like me ^_^.HITEN MITSURGI STYLE RYUU SHOU SEN!<br /><br />.

I just got this sword today. I've gotta say that I'm pretty impressed on the quality of the katana. However, if your looking for a katana that is perfectly made(full tang, carbon steel,etc...) this one is not for you, there is a kenshin blade on this website for $99.00 or so. But if thats too much then this sword is still made to fit the look of the kenshin blade in the anime and manga perfectly (The price is perfect too). The sword is in excellnt condition and is pretty lightweight and good if your looking for something to swing around(as i have already done _(^_^)_ ) Overall I give this product a 5 star rating.<br /><br />WAY TO GO TRUE SWORDS!!!

Masterpeice to showoff even to those who have no intrests in swords. You can clearly see that the edge is on the wrong side as it shines taking it out of the sheath. Stances somehow became irrelivent making you think about how you would go about fighting with this sword. Trying diffrent stances it hit me that their were no signs of any kind in faulty design. I'v seen bits and peices of the anime but wouldnt matter to me if I had never seen it. Sharpening the sword was difficult as normal techniques faultered, switching hands worked the best. Seeing as how in the anime the sword cut like a dimond edge I was really hoping it would come pre-sharpened. (But for the price it clearly dosn't bother me)^^

A display piece worthy of the battousai. It's construction is almost dead on to the manga/anime sword. It's solid feel perfectly reflects Kenshin's unrelenting spirit. Thank you True Swords for your great products, excellent service, and helpful staff! <br /><br />(P.S. This sword may come with a Last Samurai label. I was informed that this is merely a production error. Check the actual sword first.)

This sword is excellent nice weight and feel about it. The 440 stainless steel blade was nicely sharp when it arrived. The sword fits snugly and precicely into it's sheeth without trouble. The picture is almost identical to what the sword looks like the only deceiving part is the metal guard is more of an oval shape than circle as is shown in the picture. In the end a very nice replica of Kenshins sword and I highly recommend this blade to collectors and fans. Not to mention the fact that it is a nicely low price.

i just got my sword in the mail 2 hours ago. i must say im very pleased with my purchase but like 3 or 4 of the other reviews it could be sharper. but all in all i must still give it five stars for the way it look's-feels-and weigh's. thanks again true sword's for this purchase.

It has been my dream to own one of my favorite anime's weapon. True Swords has made this dream a reality. The reverse blade is perfectly built and is both very sturdy and sharp. True swords, You kick ass!

ruroni kenshin is awesome and this sword is perfectly recreated and provides very light speedy handling

great sword, superior quality as well as identical to the series! a must have for any sword collector or anime enthusiast alike!

The sword is very nice light easy to handle. Drawing it gets easier with us. My personal banding on the handles was a bit frayed and the blade looks off center just a tad. You the only way i noticed was the blades had pieces of the guard on the blade. I have bought other swords here and I personally endorse the place. I think I may have gotten one of the rare very rare blades that seems off. In the sheath it is beautiful.

i love it! it is lighter than what i thought it might be, and it is a little hard to desheath, you have to pull it a little harder than i would like to. still i am glad that i got it.

First off, This is an excellent sword for the price. It looks beauitful, the handle is perfect (for right handed people anyways), and the blade itself is ncie to look at. Made for display of course.<br /><br />Like people mentioned, it is has a small engraved mark saying "440 china," and the blade will not break skin if you try. I may be picky but i would have like for the sword to not have two blunt sides. <br /><br />Otherwise it's excellent, but if you have money, go for the full-tang version. This Sword, *FOUR STARS*

Decent Sword for its Price. Excellent detailing and Tight cord wrap, with a solid buttcap that is glued in tight. slightly loose Tsuba makes for a resounding click, while the blade sits tightly in the scabbard without falling out instantly * but will wear out the scabbard's grip if drawn repeatedly* Overall solid replica of Kenshins reversed blade. Excellent for practice with a live blade without the high risk of injury, one step up from a wooden sword.<br /><br /><br /><br />its Stainless steel, so dont go swinging it at any solid object even though its a reverse blade. 440 "Stainless Steel" is no different from a 420 softer grade "Stainless" steel, just that it can hold a form better, but regardless stainless steel is softer then 420 or 440 high carbon, and WILL bend.<br /><br />Sword is half and half tanged, basically just a half width stick of steel clamped together halfway through the handle.<br />Sabbard is beautiful but the paint chips rediculously easy, And the belt hook isnt even glued in, just a peg in the scabbard with a nice cord wrap. * EZ fix*. Its not sharp but it will still break skin due to the knife edge, so be careful swinging the blade as it is *reversed*. Blade finish is semi-high gloss, with small scratches along the fake hamon.<br /><br />AS ussual, pictures dont do the sword justice.

I don't exactly know what to give this sword as far as stars go. Its really cool,its sturdy, and very nice for the price. I would give it 5 stars, IF the reverse blade was sharpened. I find that the description of the product should include that it is an unsharpened blade. So for me- 3 stars. If you don't want a sharp blade then it is a 5 star- easy.
