This is the third katana I've gotten from ROM, and I'm very happy with all of them, but this one is my favorite so far. The quality for the price is fantastic, and there are no issues with it. The blade is straight and sharp. I really like this natural wood Saya with the metal fittings and that's why I like this one best. They're offering a promo to write a review, and there's no requirement for it to be a "good" review, which is a great easy to get organic feedback while encouraging repay business. I'm sorry excited about getting get another katana, the KIyokage which also has a natural wood Saya, so maybe check that out as well if you're considering this is. Highly recommend this company. Sword shipped fast and delivery was quicker than they said. Packaging was excellent as well.
First cut ever and thicker bottle with label and went right through even for a first timer!! also they had great communication and the sword is beautiful, and I will be shopping more with them!
Great sword, it came very sharp, handles very well, the wood saya looks awesome. I did some light to medium cutting, the blade survived with no damage and fittings did not get loose.
The two halves of the saya do have a visible seam close to the tip, but for the price, I have no complaints.
Fast shipping, very accurate tracking,
Great communication.
This is my first Katana, it looks exactly as it did in the photo's, however I wasn't prepared for how it feels.
It feels like real sword, the finish is excellent.
Very good quality over all for a really good price.
Absolutely beautiful sword, love the spring steel and very sturdy, managed to slice some heavy duty industrial cardboard tubes, without any edge damage. My only complaint about both swords in pic. Swords fit in sheet a little too loose. Suggesting to use real ray skin on this model like sword below in pic. Well done with sales communication and for listing to customers needs and suggestions!
I bought this sword to do test cutting in my backyard and against the straw mats it went through effortlessly. Since it is the first sword I've owned for this purpose all I can really say is that it was indeed sharp. The various fittings have a flower motif and I think overall it is aesthetically a very beautiful sword.
This sword particularly interested me because of the wood saya. My only complaint, and the reason for 4 instead of 5 stars, is that the saya arrived with a split down the center (viewable in the photos); I think it is made of two pieces of wood and whatever adhesive they used is coming undone at that portion or perhaps just not enough was applied there. I recall that the sword did ship in very protective looking packaging so I think it may have just shipped with the split on the saya from the beginning.
Despite this defect, I would not mind purchasing a second one, or something similar, in the future, especially for the price (~$130 USD at the time purchased).
Very good sword, I'm giving it a 4/5 only because the fittings on the Saya weren't glued on properly and came loose easily, but very easy fix, nothing serious.
The blade is VERY sharp. I cut myself with it pretty badly and had to go to the hospital 🤣 (Never try to catch the sword if it slips out of the scabbard!!)
Absolutely thrilled with this katana! It is my first
not a"wallhanger" sword and Given the quality, the price is outstanding—couldn’t be happier with this purchase!"
