As the title says, I loved the whole process of making this sword. The options were varied enough to make anyone happy, and the entire process of assembling the katana was very easy, and fun (I've wasted a LOT of time making up new designs). Customer service was always very helpful and kind through the whole thing. The katana itself is amazing; more beautiful than I could've imagined, it cuts quite well, feels comfortable in the hand, and it's tightly constructed (no wiggle in the saya or loose tsuba or anything like that). I'm already looking forward to my next order. Absolutely worth your time and money if you love swords.

I spent weeks comparing custom katana makers before going with the ShadowDancer Lite, and I'm incredibly glad I did. The sword has outstanding fit and finish, excellent balance, beautiful blade quality, and enough customization options to make it feel personal

I have always wanted a Katana but never found the right match. The fact that I was able to make it custom to my liking is amazing. The guys at Swordis did such an amazing job as well. Beautiful sword and it feels great holding it. Thank you for the phenomenal work Swordis!!!! I will treasure it!

I was surprises throughout every step of the buying process by how exceptional Swordis is. The amount of choices available in the design process is impressive, and I had a genuinely difficult time choosing which options to go with, which is a great problem to have; I've already started planning out future purchases. Customer service was incredibly polite; I especially appreciated being sent pictures of the completed sword once it was assembled. From there, shipping was reasonably quick; it took ten days overall. The sword itself is exceptional; it's beautiful, tightly assembled, and the blade is sharp. I was impressed by just how light and nimble the blade is; it moves very quickly and precisely. Overall, I would absolutely say that the sword is well worth the money.

The fittings are tight, cleanly cast, and don't feature any of the ugly, rough edges you see on generic katanas. After receiving the katana, it makes me want to get another one right away.

The ito wrap is one of my favorite parts. The diamonds are evenly spaced, the wrap feels firm, and there's no movement even after several practice sessions.
