How's the Blade?

How are the Handle and Fittings?

“Happy with the sword but the handle feels slippery for me because I have palmar hyperhidrosis, so that is a 4* for the handle. It would be great if there was an option to add on a wrapped handle.”

How are the Handle and Fittings?

“I'm a beginner to swords but decided to go for this one so I have some form of self-defense when I walk around my neighborhood in the evenings. Not too sure how to rate the sword, so 4/5 seems a safe bet.”

How's the Blade?

How are the Handle and Fittings?

“This is a hard one for me to review. The blade is incredible, really surprised at how nice it is from polish to hamon. I haven't seen anything of this quality at this price point but that's where the good parts end. The fittings are all pretty low quality and cheap. The tsuka is also way too fat and feels a bit awkward to use. Worst part is the habaki makes it a struggle to pull out of the saya, really grinds against the inside making smooth draws almost impossible. Which is a shame because of how nice the blade is, if they just refitted this with simplier fittings it would make an incredible sword but as it currently is I can't recommend this one.”
