The guntō (military sword) was a ceremonial sword produced for the Imperial Japanese army and navy after the introduction of conscription in 1872.
The Saya has flawless paint and components, fits snug and flush, the katana seemed to have the slightest of a bend about 8 inches from the tip but this is spring steel so I'm not to concerned. It is easily wielded with one hand with great balance and because it's not my t10 work of art I plan on using it for practice cuting and dismantling eventually. The grip is tight with excellent finger grip. The hand guard is solid and tight.Just toothy sharp but I can remedy that. For the money it's an excellent sword.

The swordsmith who made this katana deserves a raise 10/10 ..Stays sturdy and cuts clean through bamboo mats. Just learning with the mat cutting but real good for improving focus, kinesthetic-intelligence, clearing your mind—good therapy 💯 . This sword, the manganese steel, holds up well after heavy use.

Sword was in great condition, tightly packaged, with no flaws. The blade was sharp to the touch and covered in protective oil in a plastic sleeve. The scabbard was covered with plastic that was easy to remove as well. The box itself that it came in was stryofoam, was taped several times around and was form fitted to the actual sword. The box did smell really weird, so as a heads up would recommend opening outside then bringing it in. Other than the smell though, the sword was in top condition for the price asked.

New member of the family! I love this katana and my backyard is now full of decapitated water bottles. I've drank so many water bottles and filled them with tap water to not be wasteful--it's so addicting, getting that perfect clean slice on the water bottles, slicing multiple water bottles at once, slicing the larger jugs of waters, slicing fruits--this t10 steel is so resilient and cuts through the targets like butter. Of course, this is my first katana, my swordsmanship is that of an ultra-novice, but now I'm invigorated to learn--and learn more of the samurai history--after purchasing this instrument. What is great about TrueKatana is their unique designs, all the different scabbards and the subtle details on the hilts, the tsuba, the sheath, etc.--so much selection! I was warned that purchasing a katana would activate an addiction and, well, no regrets! 10/10, this model, the blue blade, it's mesmerizing. Just taking it out of the sheath and staring at it 😆 ...Okay, I think this review may have come off a bit long but trust me, purchase a katana from here and you'll understand!

Katana is beautiful and sturdy! Only issue is the metal bracket used to hold the strap will slip along the length of the scabbard. I wish that would stay in place. But otherwise a beautiful katana.

I bought this sword for my husband because he loves the show Demon Slayer and has been asking me to gift him a sword for over a year now.
I found this website and order him one and he had no clue! I gifted him it for his birthday and he is in love with it! It’s beautiful and well made!
