Pros

Son was thrilled with his purchase. Will definitely purchase more items from this seller. Very satisfied.



Cons

It's fine to buy swords like this if you're only going to hang it on the wall. I don't represent any store or dojo, i just want people to get access to good information. It looks nothing like the picture i ordered.

The sword i received is maroon wood handled with a maroons wood scabbard. No handle guard and no handle wrap. They seem to be held in by glue only.

Quality


He immediately started chopping up stuff with it and kept raving about how well it was made, how sturdy the blade was.


He gushed about how sturdy and sharp the blade was, and said that it was really well made as the blade goes all the way up the hilt.


I thought it would be small, not original, cheaply made but no!


I’ve purchased a couple of wall hangers recently, they were great to play around with but really just felt cheap and unstable.

Price


For the price, i was very pleased with the sword!


I got this sword for under $70 you can’t beat that price and it’s sharp and sturdy.


Don't read the other reviews this katana is great for the money!


I recommend getting this on a budget for cutting or as a wall hanger.

Oh the styrofoam on one end got crushed during shipment.

It seemed to be a nice unboxing and was covered in cloth.


I cut the box it came in clean through on the first go, but it became more difficult as it dulled which happened quite quickly.

Competitiveness


All in all i believe it is a great beginner sword that can be used to learn everything needed before moving onto better more ex...  Read More


Wow i received my samurai katana and it is far better than i had hoped for at a price that didn't break the bank.


The reason i bought this katana was to learn to take apart and replace/fix other more expensive katana tsukas.

    Its a good wallflower though it is full tang and you definetly can chop random stuff apart you can have some fun with it its machine made obviously and the case hardening along the edge is done with a wire brush

    Remember to oil it or it will get rusty very quickly

    Pros i dont believe there is a better beginner katana unless you double your budget


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Balance was greatcons in the product photos the saya and kashira were different though i do prefer the ones that came with it


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    The tsuka wrap itself was fine though it did have some play in how tight it was


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    My biggest gripe is that it seems that when they drilled the holes for the mekugi it was while the tsuka and rayskin was already on the sword


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    That left the rayskin in really bad shape
