### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    Not bad, not great
  

*by O***A on Reviewed in the United States on May 29, 2014*

This was my first real sword.  While the sword looks good and seems sturdy I wasn't as blown away by this as other posters.  It wasn't razor sharp like I would have like and construction is good not great.  Although for the price and as a first sword it works nicely.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    The blade was very nice on mine
  

*by N***H on Reviewed in the United States on January 28, 2016*

Just picked this sword up, it's my second katana and 5th sword overall. The blade was very nice on mine, no rust and very straight, edge is also good. Out of the box it can cut paper, but not super cleanly - sharp enough for most cutting, but you may want to sharpen it a bit more if you are a serious cutter.Fittings were all tight, no rattle or anything loose on it. After cleaning and oiling the blade, the damascus-pattern really shows up beautifully, and it does go to the edge of the blade, so I believe it is good steel, not just acid etching.My only real issue is the pegs in the handle weren't really straight on mine, so I haven't been able to remove the handle to verify the tang. The pegs are fine the way they are right now, just a bit tricky to remove. The leather wrap is well done, no issues there. The leather does give it a larger handle grip, so watch out for that. The handle feels large compared to my other katana's cotton-wrapped handle.This katana is also light, it moves very fast. My other katana (the other one I have is also a cutting katana, in the $500 range) feels more solid overall, but I think that's also due to my other one being heavier and having a thicker blade overall.Bottom line, I think this is a great katana for the price, and it really is beautiful. It looks great in or out of the saya. This is my first sword from United Cutlery, so I was pretty nervous about what I would end up with, but happy with the result.One note, the katana is shipped with only the katana and saya. It does not come with a cleaning kit, so make sure you have stuff already to clean it with. It will need to be well cleaned soon as you get it. Personally, I use Kleenix tissues (no lotion kind!), 99% alcohol (gets the old oil off the blade nicely), and then oil it (gun oil or sewing machine oil).
