      Excellent quality for the price. Being a little smaller than the average katana it is perfect for my 12 year old boy as a training sword - he is very pleased with it

      A lovely well made sword, with a nice (280mm) length Tsuki, and a lovely balance. A nice sound when cutting correctly, not as loud as other std length Katana's I've tried, but overall it brings a smile to the face. thanks

      This is the first real actual Katana that I've ever brought and I didn't quite know what I would get but it came extremely fast and well packaged and was exactly as described. It's beautiful and well made and certainly sharp. Having no problems cutting through a bunch of stuff with ease. Also came with care instructions. Well done superior swords. Will certainly be buying more swords soon. Thanks

      This is a very nice Ko-katana! It feels comfortable to hold, and is very well made and finished... a nice piece to add to any collection.
