I am very surprised. A really very nice katana, super workmanship for the price can not be beaten. The dispatch was also very fast.

Price performance tip top, fast delivery and the Katana a dream for the price madness, cleanly processed, in any case already really sharp from the factory.
I don't think this will be my last. The honed hamon is also impressive, not overdone and finely crafted.
High praise, super.

I received the Katana two days after ordering. Well done. As for the quality... The sword is solidly made, nothing rattles. Everything fits together well. Which really surprised me in this price range. Overall, a big plus in terms of workmanship and quality.
Tsuka and tsuba - quality comparable to more expensive swords, without any dishonour.
Habaki - a big minus here for the workmanship, it fits well but is scratched and sticky. (working hour, shines like the sun)
Sword blade - Well finished, with a small chip at the beginning and medium sharp. (Two more hours of work and the result was great, shiny and sharp for the price).
Saya - very well fitting, holds the sword perfectly.
The downside is unfortunately a large amount of glue and waste. (Another hour's work.) Painted glossy black.
Overall, for this price, this is a great katana to add to your collection.
You can skip those hours of your own labour by buying more expensive katanas if someone doesn't have those skills and willingness. However, if it's just for decoration, you don't have to do anything, it looks nice on the stand.
For my part, I would just like to add that it is worth ordering a sharpening service if we do not have manual skills, and then we can immediately enjoy a beautiful blade. This is my first purchase in this shop, but I bought a stand for 4 swords ... So my next purchases will definitely be with you, but something from the top shelf.
