This sword, expertly forged from 1045 high carbon steel, embodies the perfect blend of toughness and ease of sharpening. The meticulous heat treatment process enhances the steel's inherent properties, resulting in a blade that strikes an optimal balance between hardness and flexibility. Its sharpness is outstanding, delivering clean, precise cuts with every swing. But this sword is more than just a functional tool; it's a work of art, crafted with attention to the finest detail, exuding a sense of timeless elegance. This is the irreplaceable charm of our 1045 High Carbon Steel Sword – where power meets elegance.
I've ordered 6 swords from Truekatana. This picture represents a Chinese Straight Sword and Chinese Broadsword I purchsed. I'm not a metalurgist, forgemaster or swordmaster. I learned a little Shao lin and wu shu broadsword in my youth, but that's about it. All that said these swords are truly functional, beautifully balanced and of exquisite workmanship. Besides being weapons they are beautiful works of art. I like to collect swords of all types and these two are among the most expensive I've bought, both being in the $1000 range. They are also, by far, the nicest.
I've also bought two katanas and two wakizashi. Though I did not venture into the same price range, they are truly viable weapons and beautiful art pieces.
Truekatana has truly exceptional pieces, fully functional as well as beautiful to behold. They are worth every penny and if you wait for a sale you will likely find something you like at a better than fair price.

As soon as you see this katana, you understand that is such a great piece of art. But as soon as you take this sword, which we often see on TV screens, out of its sheath, you understand that the master blacksmith not only worked on it for many days but also put a bit of his soul into his work, which seriously lets you know the weight and shine of the manganese steel, playing with the rays of the afternoon sun.

Well made!! The only con to mention is the weight isn’t balanced
Handmade Japanese Shikomizue Sword Full Tang |
Minus a star for poor sheath retention which I fixed with a thin layer of wood glue.
Good blade and handle quality otherwise.
Short Katana, Handmade Wakizashi Sword Damascus Steel With Brown Scabbard |
Overall great quality, but some minor defects. The blade it not completely straight; it curves slightly to the left. Also, the tsuba is slightly bent. However, I'm still very happy with the purchase.
