Great design and sword for your collection . Looks beautiful and you cannot beat the price. Don't think it's a sword for practice or fighting . But if you want great looking display this ones it .

This sword is a beatiful and it shows how swords should be!

Overall A VERY Good Display Sword, Im Pleased With It Generally, Not Sharp But For $25.00, I Wasnt Expecting It To Be, It Is Thick With Grease But I Guess Thats Just To Preserve The Blade, A Little Hard To Get Out Of The Saya But It Seems That After Removing Alot Of grease Its Getting Easier, My Only Real Complaint Is, The Ito And Saego, (Sword Handle And Sheath Wrapping) Arent As Crimson Red As The Picture, Its A Bit Darker And Kind Of Dull Looking As Opposed To The Shiny Red Pictured, And The Longer Thinner Blood Groove On One Side Seems As If It Wasnt Ground Out All The Way, But None The Less, Its A WONDERFUL Display Piece, But If You Want One For The Functionality Of It, Get The $90.00 Version.

Its So Beautiful I Love This Best Choice For My First Sword

Nice sword ! Got it yesterday it looks very well made..... Fast shipping

Love it love it love it love it

I got this originally to have a neat looking sword that I wasnt afraid to get damaged. I would like to point out several things i found wrong with it. While it looks good for decoration, the blade is super thin in my opinion, probably the only thing that doesn't make its lack of a significant spine dangerous is that its made from carbon steel. Second, mine had clearly alot of machine tool work on it that nearly ruined the asthetic a bit. I've been told this is not true in all cases though, so take from that what you will. Thirdly, its light. Super light. I have a wooden sword heavier than it. I guess over all, get this for a display piece or to teach a kid how to properly care for a sword (no edge on it either out ofthe box) since it is carbon steel, maybe use it forform practice. I'm not really disappointed in this because it never once claimed any sort of functionality, so its basically what it says on the box, in a manner of speech.

very nice looks very nice sterdy

Sword came in time, Though the blade wasnt exactly a blade. Nothing a half hour with the accusharp didnt fix. Other than that sword looked just like it did with the picture. Cuts stuff very nicely once sharp, and the point is very.. pointy. I recommend this sword.

This is a great sword. Contrary to other reviews mine was actually quite stable and sturdy. No rattling or loose parts. However it did come coated with thick grease which took a couple hours to remove from the blade and saya. Not full tang but if I sharpened it I'm sure it would at least cut through 3 maybe 4 inches of straw or grass. Not a bad sword for the price.
