Purple Samurai Warrior Sword With Open Scabbard

I love it. It feels good in your hands and is semi sharp and looks amazing. Thanks budk

Was expecting an unsharpened sword but is sharp, not razor sharp. Sheath is great quality. Overall the sword in my opinion was under priced. Excellent craftsmanship

I am happy with my purchase. For the price it is a very good value. For the cost, I would recommend this purchase. It's not "museum quality", but well worth the price.

Great gift! The person I gave it to is using it as a display piece, so I’m not sure of the durability. I’m very curious to know though, what does the Japanese inscription on the blade mean?...

This is my first katana looks nice and blade will bend if shaken but is strong but it is also a great display.

Once I got this beauty in I had to go ahead and ordered another . Great piece .Don't wait.

This sword is BEAUTIFUL!! The cord on the handle is almost purple and well wrapped. I love the tsuba as well. The blade on this sword is a thing of beauty. Mine came sharp enough to cut through water bottles and milk jugs. But it's so pretty I don't wanna do that and risk scratching it. If you're thinking about getting this sword, stop thinking, just get it. Thanks BudK!!

Got it in the mail today and was not disappointed, a good quick , light weight and sharp blade . The sheath is a good type of plastic material and is I would say a mix between a samurai and a ninja sword

Though it is made to be put on a wall or display case, the stainless steel holds together very well. It's also very attractive and makes for a good first sword. The blade is about as sharp as a $5.00 machete, but stainless steel doesn't require too much maintenance or extra care, so sharpening is easy. Excellent buy for $20.00.

I got the sword a day early and was very please with the quality and colors. The handle WAS wrapped with a deep purple color, contrary to what the description states. The color is slightly lighter than what is pictured, but still looks very cool. Scabbard is made of fragile wood, but grips nicely and looks decent. Very good for the price.

This is a great sword. Playing fruit ninja works until you hit on of the items at and angle to were it deflects the sword and bends it. But if the sword bends you can easily bend it back. Like other review the scabbard holds the sword tightly.

Excellent for the price. Blade is sharp and fittings are indeed metal. Of course there are some little things like the habaki isn't tight around the blade but it does make an amazing display. And it is well made enough that you could easily show it off.

functional smooth clean and the red gives it some color its great

Very amazing sword. Quick delivery as well. The blade is actually fairly sharp on delivery, and the engraving on the blade makes this a very attractive sword. Trueswords is really the best place for collectors.

The scabbard is very breakable but it sure holds onto the blade well enough I can hold it upsidedown and shake it around withbnout it falling out the blade isnt straight but its suprisingly durable for stainless steel its very light and easy to carry

This is the most awesome thing I own it is awesome
My video games are a close second :)

The handle wrap is black which looks cool but the other nylon wrap is purple not maroon or red as pictured. The blade in nice and the sheath is light. Like others have said, be careful with the sheath, its fragile. I dont appericate the nylon on the sheath purple. It looks cooler and manly with the maroon nylon.

Super fast shipping, it came in two days. I love everything about this sword. It's a little smaller than I imagined, but I think it's still a great size. Everything looks amazing. The wording on the blade looks fabulous, and the metal work looks incredible.
My only concern in the sheath. It feels kind of cheap and whenever you sheath the blade you kind of have to do a final shove at the habaki (little square above the hand guard.) to get it in. It's not that much of an issue though. Some people are complaining about how "440 Stainless Steel" and "China" are printed on the blade. They are printed on the blade, but (at least for my sword) the text is a few shades lighter than the metal its self so it's only noticeable in light, and regardless the text is tiny. Great purchase, and I hope to make more on this site!

This sword is great! its fast the blade is very strong even if it isnt full tang its a great sword for colletions

NOT for hitting things. Or cutting, stabbing, maiming, etc..
Maybe it's just me but, I thought the blade looked a bit skinny when actually got it. Other than that it looks wonderful.
