Customer Rating: Summary: good sword for 15 bucks Comment: it's a rat tang sword and came with the tsuka loose. you can take the plastic cap off of the butt end of it and tighten up the nut on it.
dull blade . took about 30 minutes to get a good edge on it. on the whole it's worth the money. just dont expect something extaordinary. it's pretty nice for 15 bucks. Customer Rating: Summary: sword review. Comment: well it took 6 days ti get from canada to florida it is a good sword i like the design but the blade sucks it did not pass the paper test and
now i have to buy the sharpenin kit so i can cut trow stuff. Customer Rating: Summary: Good price, okay sword. Comment: Sword is not of the best quality, but certainly worth the 15 dollar price tag. For a wallhanger, I have no complaints. The kanji script carved into the scabbard is very attractive and adds to the traditional look of the sword. All the wrappings are nylon, but look nice enough. The blade is fairly dull, it barely passed the paper test, I might try to sharpen it later.
My only real complaint is that when the sword is removed from the scabbard, there is a greasy film that collects on the blade, but I think it will go away after a while. Customer Rating: Summary: Good, but not what i expected. Comment: This an okay sword, but they gave me the wrong stand. in the picture the stand had the same markings as the sheath, but on mine they're different and I don't know what they mean. Also in the description they said that the sword was "already sharpened" this is not the case, it simple has a false edge. (an edge about 90 degrees, not good for cutting anything.) Customer Rating: Summary: Beautiful Sword Comment: The sword is beautiful and exactly as expected. The sheath is a black matte. This is a sword that can be used beautifully for decorative purposes. The only reason I did not give it 4 stars is because the blade is not stainless steel. The description said it was but unfortunately it is not. I was interested in a stainless steel blade for concerns over any rusting that may occur with any other type of blade. The stand is simple but does its job. It displays any sword in an elegant manner.
