Purchased this Katana for my son. I am not terribly familiar with Japanese swords but am very happy with my purchase. The sword arrived significantly before the expected delivery date and was in perfect condition. Unpacked, the sword is contained in a decorative cloth bag with a gold cord with tassels. The wooden sheath is high gloss black with some decorative accents and very nice in appearance and quality. The Katana itself to me seems to be very well made with a sharp edge. Taking off the protective plastic sleeve and removing the factory oil protectant reveals a beautiful dark reddish/brown hue. I am extremely pleased with the Katana and sure my son will be thrilled. 100% satisfied.

This is an extremely unique sword(s). The design is very clever and a great addition to any sword collection!

Great sword for the price, the swordsmith left his name and markings on the tang, it cam with a certificate of authenticity and also the way it was made.

I both doubt and hope I never have a use for this. However, it is simply beautifully crafted. The fact that it is a practical sword as well as such a work of art makes for a perfect combination.

All of the cold steel training weapons I have purchased have arrived in a timely manner, in good condition and seem to be of excellent quality. My wife and I are not in any kind of training, we just like to "play swords" so our routines tend to be pretty vigorous and we have never experienced any bending or warping.

Delivery was a bit quicker than expected. Sword is fairly sharp. Solid brass pommel can be unscrewed. Mine came without any looseness or rattles. Beautiful blade. You can see very faint texture of the folding pattern when viewing blade from the side. Makes a nice "ping" when you flip the blade with your finger.

I'm pretty happy with this. it was surprisingly cheap. it doesn't suck. the stand it comes with isn't terrible either. bang for the buck on this one. though i haven't tried chopping anything in half with it yet.

My 7 old year boy love it!!! The perfect bokken for a boy who loves practice of kendo and martial arts and thinks he is a Ninja hahaha, definitely 100 % recommendable!

Wonderful Sword!!! Very High Quality!!! Love It!!!!!

The sword came in faster than expected, and met my high expectations. It is razor sharp, there are no knicks, and it feels as if it was built to last. In my opinion, this sword is worth the money.

Cold Steel products are known for their durability and this item keeps that reputation in place. My only complaint is that it does seem a bit on the light side, but that is the same for all of Cold Steel's polypropylene practice weapons.

I love this weapon. It maybe lighter than wood, but it is far more durable. I also like its lightness because it can used with speed. I plan to get a second one to have a matching pair. I have 2 Wooden Wakazashi Bokken and 1 Wooden Tanto Bokken, and all three are stored because they get chipped and start to split. I will only use Cold Steel Trainers from now on. The Cold Steel trainers don't have the distracting vibration that wood creates hitting a target. Lastly, a well placed strike with a Cold Steel trainer can be just as brutal as a Wooden Bokken strike.

Sick blade! Very well made and looks good!

It comes as discribed no complaints here although it did say china on it and not musashi comes with certificate of authinticity

It was exactly what i was looking for and much cheaper than what i could find on other web pages

For anyone looking for an authentic cutting sword, this is a great choice. This is the more refined version of the Hanwei Practical Katana Sword. I did some research and this rated well in many sword enthsiast forums. It comes with a tag from Hanwei that provides a serial number to document that this is a Hanwei sword. The workmanship is so beautiful for a sword of this price that I have not had the heart to cut with it yet. I may just buy another one and keep one for decoration and dedicate the other for cutting practice.

Has not broken and kids love it. I have other cold steel products that are great.

This was a Christmas gift purrchased for someone else. I haven't had any feedback that says he didn't like it.

Believe me...it's an outstanding sword... Worthy in every way. I've tried several other products (all more expensive), but this one is exceptional. In some months I will look for the Emperor sword. I'm just afraid of paying more forthe same or less quality.

Very nice blade for the price! Was shipped faster then I expected it to be. Very happy and will be buying more later.
