How's the Blade?

How are the Handle and Fittings?

“The sword came in only a thin, cardboard, black sword box closed with transparent tape only at the ends. No shipping box. Left on my porch standing up. Despite all that the sword was undamaged. As reviewers have mentioned it's nice, well balanced and worth the money. It seems lighter than it is. The scabard is much nicer than you'd expect at this price. The two belts.... not so much. All in all, I like it!”

“Shadow Dancer has a very solid reputation as a sword maker and this one does not quite life up to their reputation for fit and finish. However, it is still a solid feeling sword that is somewhat unique among the offerings out there for European style swords. As a first atttempt at a longsword, they did a solid job. I am hopful they will continue to grow in this space and make more offerings that fit the needs of longsword buyers as they have with folks who love their katana.”
