Serrated Katana Samurai Sword w/ Leather Wrapped Handle

A fascinating sword for any collector of anime swords, and one that would be especially appreciated by any Ninjutsu student due to the nearly straight blade matched with the light-duty Shikoro saw-blade like feature that could be used as a means of aiding escape, setting traps & snares or building a quick shelter for wilderness survival. It's extremely light weight as far as most Katana go, and it may need some additional sharpening with a rod-style sharpener if you are looking for a true to form serrated blade as seen on smaller knife varieties, but as a 'saw blade' it's fine just the way it is, no sharpening required.

First off, The blade IS NOT full tang, Repeat NOT FULL TANG. 2nd, Its NOT as sharp as it appears to be in this image, The serrations are somewhat flat, They will cut you however and cause serious damage, But i think thats more due the the constant serration. 3, The sword does feel a "Bit" flimsy and it "seems" to wobble, but doesnt, Just gives off that impression. The absolute best thing about this blade though, Is HOW it feels, The skinny handly mixed with the faux leather, And the shape just feels AMAZING, And mixed with the glossy plain skinny scabbard makes it feel just amazing, The blade itself may not be that great other then lookig cool, But the Tsuka feels wonderful, The Tsuka alone is worth it.

Looks like the sword used by the bad guy in ultraviolet.

Absolutely love the sword, always have been a fan of rurouni kenshin. The serrations are pretty sharp and the sword has met all my expectations.

LOVE The Leather Wrap On This Thing, Every Time I Show This To Someone New, Theyre AMAZED At It, I Believe It IS Full Tang, Or At Least 2/3rds Tang, Not Some Cheap Mall Sword, Its Not Particularly Sharp, The Grinds Of The Edge Dont Meet, But The Serrations Make It To Where They Dont Have To, The Teeth On It Alone Are Sharp Enough To Tear Through WHATEVER You Put On Front Of It.

For the most part, this is a great buy for a unique sword. If you are a fan of Makoto Shishio like I am, then this is the one for you. You get what you pay for but this is a nice sword overall. Definitely worth the $25.00, but honestly wouldn't pay much more

For starters, this is a good solidly constructed blade. There isn't any wobble or looseness in the construction of it, and the serrations are good. but there are a few things I should point out. You get what you pay for, as this is only a display blade. The steel it's made from is comparably soft, as it bends easily, even from stabbing or trying to cut the shipping box it came in. On a separate note, the scabbard comes full of wax, so if you're not careful in drawing it, you'll always have wax on the blade which is a real bother. Other than that, there isn't anything really wrong. The hand wraps are secure and the emblems inside them aren't any kind of bother.

Really like the weapon, it is only point sharp which is a disappointment, but one i can easily get over.

the product is great i like it very much and very satisfied.

Great sword, strong, and very light!
