I recently ordered a total of 3 swords from True Swords, This was one was ordered as a gift for a friend, who is an experienced martial artist. I also ordered the Bamboo and the Harmony Katanas for myself. Considering the wide range of prices I payed for these swords I have to say that I have found one thing they all have in common, all of them represent an amazing value. <br /><br />Considering the under $40 price point this Katana is a steal, it makes no pretense about being fancy, there is no fake Hamon or Yokote, but it is very functional, The blade is simple and left in a Satin finish, but it is made of real High Carbon steel which means this sword can actually be used as something other than a wall hanger. The balance is reasonably good and the Bo-hi both make the blade lighter and quicker handling and produce a wonderful Tachi Kaze (whistle) when the sword is swung correctly, if you are starting out this can be very useful because the Bo-Hi on each side of the blade and the blade it's self will all produce a whistle, if you hear all 3, then the swing was good.<br /><br />The Tsuba is fairly solid, it is not that large and it looks somewhat delicate but the metal is reasonably thick and has a nice solid feel to it. The Saya feels sturdy, and the matte finish feels high quality to the touch. The Ito is real cotton, which provides an excellent grip, though it was not as tight as on the other 2 swords, Overall the fittings are much like the blade solid and functional. <br /><br />Anyways my overall take on this sword is that it is a really amazing value, and I would highly recommend it as a gift for someone who is into swords but doesn't think they can afford anything better than a wall hanger, or as a starter sword for someone that wants a functional blade, it would also make an outstanding practice sword for someone who wants to learn how to properly use a sword but doesn't want to damage an expensive blade in the process.

Ive bought atleast 5 swords on this site 2 of them were katanas at the price of 65 dollars and in my opinion this one beats all. Its got a nice painted wooden saya thats not glossy so it looks better and doesnt attract fingerprints as much, it didnt come too sharp, but some how i managed to get it as sharp as my knife almost with just the accusharp sharpener even though it doesnt work on swords it worked on this one. its nice and shiny and it doesnt say china anywhere on the blade thats visible :D

It is could in every way but is not that sharp but can still cut a 2 liter bottle easily all you need to do is sharpen it and you got a quality sword.

Just got it. Took awhile for delivery. Very nice. Of all the swords I have purchased over the years, this far surpasses them all. Heavy blade. Sharp. Have not tried to disassemble yet. Did not come with disassembly instructions or care instructions. But these are eaily found on internet.

I bought this weapon for my brother a month or so ago along with another samurai special. I can honestly say I'm trueswords.com's BIGGEST fan and will continue buying from them til I drop. That being said, I give this sword 3 stars because it was way thinner, lighter and weaker than my Sam special. After a few water bottles, the blade began to warp and we are adept if not expert swordsmen. I would recommend another Sam special unless the one I got was faulty, otherwise perfect beginner weapon. Sharp, the build was sturdy and went into the days perfectly. Only complain was the blade but for the price who am I to complain.
