Swordis 5 star review on 9th February 2026

"This is my first time seeing and holding a katana, but they feel and look amazing! The silk ito and fittings are all rock solid. The blades are very reflective and attractive! \r\n\r\nThe 1095 purple steel is a unokubi-zukuri and feels agile in hand. The saya is glossy and speckled with yellow-gold dots of varying sizes across its body, adding some depth. It's a bit hard to see the purple-colored blade with my lighting and camera work, but it's more noticeable in person and in a brighter area. The blade geometry allows for a lighter and easier time swinging in practice\u2014it's definitely a noticeable drop in weight compared to the other katana. It also makes a sharp sound as it cuts through the air. I enjoy looking at the contrast between the yellow-gold ito and the obsidian-like blade. It's definitely an unorthodox katana I've customized, but it sure is fun.\r\n\r\nThe 1095 carbon steel clay temp shinogi-zukuri (hazuya polish) with ko-choji hamon is simply beautiful. As compared to the first katana, this one has a bit more weight\u2014but feels powerful in hand. A nice and audible deep whoosh when I swing. The saya has a textured feel of stone? I'm not sure how to accurately describe it, but it feels nice regardless. The hamon really pops out with bright lighting and provides a strong impression. I've given my friends, family, and co-workers a chance to see and\/or hold this specific katana in person; this was a rare experience\u2014a fun one.\r\n\r\nUltimately, I have no problems with my ordered katanas, and I absolutely love them. Hanbon Forge has shown great care and thus provided great quality blades.\r\n\r\nSwordis (David, the one assisting me) has been one of the best I've had when it comes to customer support. Part of the joy of ordering my katanas from Swordis came from the level of support given. They are very responsive and provide detailed information and follow-ups concerning your questions\/needs\u2014you are in good hands.\r\n\r\nWill order through Swordis again.\r\n\r\nThank you, and have a great day!"

“First order from Swordis and would rate it at an overall 3.5 to 4 out of 5. Ordered the Shadow Dancer Premium Musashi Folded Steel. Starting from the tip the blade is gorgeous with the steel layers and pattern very pronounced and look amazing. The polish provided makes the lines stand out well and it is most appreciable in the sunlight. The habaki is a very basic but good looking copper habaki with no corrosion, fading, etc. However the back side edges are very pronounced and have a sharp edge. Enough so that in practice it caught my hand and drew blood. The seppa are well aligned and very basic as would be expected. The Tsuba is what I would expect with no bends, chips, or damages. The fuchi is of decent quality however as a practitioners sword it has a pronounced ledge that over time does create a minor hot spot. The tsuka is very well shaped, the ito tightly wrapped and more comfortable in my hand than swords I have at twice the price point. The saya is my only true point of dissatisfaction. The saya while beautiful on the outside is not well fitted to the blade or the habaki. When unsheathing the sword it is extremely tight fitting around the habaki. Actually required two people the first time. When using the blade for practice returning the sword to the saya unless guided in perfectly it binds and then stops short before fully sheated leaving a gap. If pushed to completely sheath the sword it becomes next to impossible to remove. When compared to multiple swords of a similar price point including a Hanwei, Skyjiro, Ryansword the blade and tsuka are at the same or arguably better quality. As a practitioner of iaijutsu with a live blade the saya is a bit of a let down. However the blade is very light, agile, and maneuverable making practicing cuts and movements very easy and pleasurable. Attempted to upload photos however the consistently failed to do so. Will definitely buy again however I will likely purchase a custom sword with a custom fit saya for my purposes. Thanks for the amazing blade!”

“Ordered my first custom katana and i love it, its very detailed and well crafted. The handle tight and the japanese silk smooth, it feels really good to wield it and its well balanced. The only downside was the shipping since fedex usually doesnt give good delivery options in my country but it was worth the wait.”

“Shadow Dancer Nova Brown Antiqued Sea Wave: very nice build quality and shipping was good but sword is surprisingly unsharp: does not cut paper sheet in standard test but still need to try proper test on water jugs and other targets. I did expect more sharpness based on description.”
