How's the Blade?

How are the Handle and Fittings?

“This is my first custom katana from Hanbon forge and I am nothing but impressed! They went out of their way to send me photos of the katana once it was finished before shipping it to me. It's tough to say, but I think this is ( according to my personal preference) the nicest sword in my collection to date. The balance feels really good compared to other katana I've swung around. The premium saya is smooth and quite when drawing and sheathing the blade. The leather tsuka wrap feels so nice in my hand. Has decent grippy feeling to it. I really enjoyed using their custom katana builder on the swordis website. Lots of options. Got exactly what I wanted and it didn't break my bank account. I have not had a chance to cut any tatami with it yet, but am excited to when I find some time. I've already ordered a custom tanto from hanbon to match with this katana but with a folded and clay tempered blade. Cant wait to get it so I can display the two pieces together.”

“I am very impressed with the overall quality of the sword. The ito is really tight, feels great, samegawa is decent quality, and the balance is actually quite good. Only thing I didn't love was the blades sharpness, it was sharp but not quite what I had hoped. Not worth taking a star fro. Though, great blade with great fittings, would recommend!”

“The sword looks very nice and is very durable I just wish they told me the gold color would make the sword dull instead of letting me pay for extra sharp”
