Quick shipping, a truly beautiful
"Quick shipping, a truly beautiful sword with a clearly visible hamon. For the price range, probably the best sword available. Not exactly razor sharp, but has a fine cutting edge. I was very impressed upon just swinging it once."
BETTER THAN ADVERTISED! I was
"BETTER THAN ADVERTISED! I was blown away when I opened the package and every detail down to the certificate just amazed me"
Works great on cheeseburgers, makes me angry if they order fries instead of chips.
"Spotty sharpening but good for the pricepoint. Thanks again, Jessica P"
Nice!
"Beautiful and light weight. Very sharp and sturdy. My new favorite. Totally worth it."
You should buy this
"For under $100 I doubt you'll find a better sword. It's just as advertised, though I doubt Its actually 1060 steel. Shipping was fast even during the holidays. This is the 3rd Katana I've purchased, and though it's the least expensive, id say it's the best quality. Everything was nice and tight out of the box. Other then a small nick on the Saya, and a little sharpening (still cut paper out of the box) I was very pleased."

"its an amazing blade and not my first and as of yet it holds up to its reputation my only thing is mine i believe came either dull as hell or has a kata not sure it still cuts i have only done two milk jugs and a two liter bottle but it seems to cut well ill probobaly do a follow up review and it skates off of my arkansas stone? not sure but either way its an amazing product"
followup

Just received my sword today
"Just received my sword today and was very excited to open the box, first thing i noticed was how solid the sword felt in my hands, very well put together, all of the fittings were nice and tight. The blade was very sharp out of the box and the hamon looked excellent! Cuts through targets with ease. By far the best sword in this price range."
