this sword without a fake Harmon line is superb and extremely sharp out of the box with no edge burrs, Tight, great balance and at a give away price for the extreme quality it is. Buy one today. It is a serious threat to anything it hits.

Got it in like a week and was so stoked to see it outside and was even more stoked once I took it out of the box! It's an absolutely beautiful sword everything was right it came with oil and a handy cleaning guide! The bald is so straight and very sharp! I was extremely satisfied and will absolutely be purchasing more and more from True Swords thank you so much for an outstanding product! A++++++

Got this sword a while ago, and the Tsuba is a little loose, but otherwise its ok.

Got this sword yesterday, it is my first katana and I have to say I am very pleased for the low price. It came sharp and so far I have no problems with the tsuba or the blade itself. No rattling and very easy to swing.

This sword is perfect for cutting water bottles, grass mats, rolled newspaper, bamboo, and other things. I highly recommenced this sword to my friend and he is going to get one but they are currently out of stock.

Just got this in the mail and it is of much better build quality than the price would indicate. Very solid feel and excellent balance.

I would have expected to pay + $70 for this sword. Very solid and the engraving adds an overall perfect demeanor for the sword. Already recommending this to everyone who asks about it. Thanks BudK!

This sword is unbelievable for what you pay solid construction. Full tang and sharp no frills no fake hamon just an excellent hand forged blade with blood groove all you have to do is razor sharp the blade and you have one hell of a fine weapon that can take whatever you throw at it worth every penny.Great Sword....

Realy a battle ready! I tested and no fail. Very especial sword, good balance with easy handles. For the price its very good.

I just received my Raging Waters Katana today , I must say that this thing is just AWESOME and came pretty sharp, but needs to be sharper, which will not be an issue, it has good weight to it and truly is priced way to low, but I am not complaining at all. Thanks BUDK again for something great! also received for free BLACK LEGION MACHETE WITH 2PC THROWING SET and I just love them

This sword it is easily as good as some three hundred dollar swords I have seen so as far as I am concerned this sword is a must have for anyone who likes sword because it is cheap enough to beat up but sturdy enough to stand up to what ever you have to throw at it.

This thing is a very solid sword. Splits through cardboard like air. Only one problem though, the tsuba started to click up and Down after awhile.

I think that this sword is better quality than the price suggests. Sharp enough, can be sharpened though. Carbon steel, so it's battle ready. Full tang, so it's sturdy. Nice weight to it. Had a nice and fun test cut or two with it. The heavy blood groove is nice. I haven't disassembled it to test the ease and tang, although the bamboo pins are a nice sign. It's a bit short, but I guess most Katana are. That's more realistic too, I've learned, so it's actually a plus. There's a nice soft cloth wrap around the sword and nice wooden scabbard as well. Besides being a little sharper, it only lacks the cool wavy design from a nice smithing trick near the sharp part of blade which prevents this sword from being in upper classes. The missing wavy line, a smithing mark that may go hand in hand with clay and making the sharp better extra hard so it be sharper and sturdier, is actually more important than the missing razor sharp feature, on that note. Anyway, thanks BUDK and Musha. For being special.

This is the real deal people, the weapon is beautiful no shaking parts everything is tight full tang battle ready katana. it comes sharpened you will need to put a little bit finer edge on it. They put a good edge on it at the forge any sharper it would cut through the box. This weapon is worth every penny. It has two pins in the handle so you can break the sword apart. i am thinking of having they blade etched to make it mine give it that personal touch. Buy this sword you will not be sorry if you are the people at BudK will give you thirty days to decide. you wont return it though.R Stewart

I'm very impressed with this blade, it's very well made, sharp right out of the box, sturdy and simply gorgeous. with the factory edge I sliced through a 4X4 cardboard shipping box cleanly. when I ordered this sword I was expecting a $40 sword, what I got was surprisingly well made and of excellent quality. for anyone looking for a good blade for practice and doesn't want to use their higher priced blades, you need to buy this one

This sword sells under several names, but it's made by Musha of China. It is a good carbon steel , full tang (nearly to the end of the handle) heavy duty, well balanced blade, comes sharp and is a full service sword with a wooden scabbard and a well wrapped handle. I would say that this sword is one of the best buys on the web now. I purchased two of these on a 30% off sale at True Swords,,it is also available on other BudK company sites under the code PCSS125 and in a Golden Bamboo design model as PCSS047BK I highly recommenced these swords as it is one of those rare bargains that are only found with much searching time. Just make sure you buy the blade with the heavy blood groove as there is a substitute model that is slimmer and inferior that also sells under the same product code.

This sword is pretty good, but it didn't come very sharp and rattles a good bit. Might recommend for a beginner or for decoration, but it had trouble cutting some simple things, like a thin holly branch or a jug (Didn't go all the way through)

This is awesome. I got this and the bamboo full tang model at the same price. This is razor sharp, very well balanced and about 2-3 inches shorter than other standard size katanas. Have cut the box it came with while it was standing leaving it static. static cuts on empty water bottles and milk jugs. simplistic but appealing design scheme, fittings are all very tight on the one i have recieved, no rattle, blade fits securely into saya which is in itself very nice with a little motiff and a textured finish instead of the usual piano black lacquer Get it why not or two use for practice or light cut practice on soft targets like water bottles/jugs newspaper rolls/sheets. Practice kata get it! :D

I just got the sword today it is sweet.The tsuba looks awesome and the blade is sharp.I just can't say anything bad about this sword.My favorite thing about the sword is the tsukamaki.I think if you want a sword you should buy this one.
