Shinwa Damascus Steel Red Knight Katana Sword Hand Forged

Great Sword! Feels extremely durable and balanced. Fantastic quality and look! Thank you!

I have recently purchased this weapon and it's a nice extension of one's arm...the pattern on the blade is mild but nice to look at. Performance is quite nice as it has withstood all but 1 material I have put it against and even then it was minimal damage to the blade that can easily be tuned with a stone. I won't say what that material is as finding out exactly what your weapon is capable of is part of the thrill. It's a nice example of what a good blade should be compared to a wall hanger. I would recommend this blade to those starting a collection and to veteran collectors like myself who understand the term I must express it's a "light cutter"...all in all a very nice blade to have in your arsenal.

Another Shinwa that is well worth buying. A very , very nice addition to my collection.

100% Real Sword

Wow first review!! I am very happy with this sword!!! I just got it and was so happy when I opened the box! It's beautiful yet deadly. Very nice! Another excellent choice from True Swords! I am really happy. Very satisfied.

Great item. Very good quality. Would highly recommend!

I recently purchased this sword for my collection.It has a great feel to it. Shinwa makes a great product and is well crafted.This sword was worth every nickle, you will not be dissapointed. Thanks BUDK !!!

My fiance got me this sword as a Xmas gift and it is sweet. I haven't used it to practice on anything yet but it looks like it'll get the job done! It also looks very nice so it'll be more for presentation and possibly zombies :)

To begin, I would like to apologize to the two ladies on customer service while we were talking, my phone was being a little screwy and it drops calls, but that is fixed now. Second, I would like to say thank you to everyone at Budk that had a part on this, from making this beautiful sword to shipping it to my front door. This is a very beautiful sword I have received and I hope to do business with Budk again in the near future.

I've been collecting swords and knives for a while, and I must say that this is by far the crown jewel of my collection. It comes sharp right out of the box (after all, it is "battle ready" and it comes with a cloth bag that is used in shipping and storage. The sword feels very nice when holding it and feels like it is at least half tang, if not full. Thanks Bud K, 5 out of 5 for this beautiful, quality item. I'll be shopping here for years to come.

The sword has been folded only 10 times. Each time you fold it, you double the amount of layers.

It is a sturdy blade, but not as Sharpe as I had hoped. I fixed that rather quickly.

I had gotten this sword with a bit of hesitation on weather this sword is a sturdy or a sharp sword but once i had gotten it i was impressed that this sword was pretty sharp and well made even after hitting a wooden block it was still sturdy and no shacking with the blade all around its a good sword but it could be a bit sharper

Just received my sword today, shipping was fast for being the basic. Upon looking over the sword I notice a few small imperfections but face it nothing is absolutely perfect. I can feel the strength of the sword just by holding it, i know it would go through a side of beef easily, could have been a bit sharper but I have a feeling it will cause damage. Shinwa does make quality, but for the overall value go for the gold and get the higher end model but i will say this one will look great hanging up on the wall.

The sword is not worth the money unless your get the buy one get one sword free. Besides that its not worth the money at all. Not razor sharp out of the box. But that was expected since I got another sword for free. Hope this helped
