      Quality Katana

      Posted by Brody on 7th Sep 2020

      It took about 10 business days to get to me from NZ to AUS even during covid so props to the staff. I really wanted to give it a 5 star but the paint on my Tsuba was warn and chipped. Other than that, this Katana is sturdy, clean, evenly weighted, sharp and pre-oiled for convenience. I bought the stand along with it and it's definitely eye candy and a conversation starter!

      Amazing

      Posted by Hayden Davidson on 20th May 2020

      This sword is very high quality and 1045 steel makes for a good quality, yet affordable sword that can still hold a sharp edge. I was surprised as to how heavy a Katana actually is in comparison to other swords. This Katana is an extremely powerful cutter and the long handle in proportion to the blade makes it real nice to handle. The design on the gaurd is really well done too. I would highly recommend this sword if your looking to pick up a Katana.
