3 new, starting at $22.85
This sword measures 41 inches in overall length, with a 27 inch blade made of 440 Stainless Steel, and an 11 1/2 inch black nylon cord wrapped handle. Includes free display stand! The tsuba (guard) is a simple black cast metal ring design. The saya (scabbard) is finished with a deep black lacquer and made of wood. The sageo (wrap around scabbard) is a solid black nylon cord. This is a reverse blade sword, meaning the edge of the blade is along what is traditionally the back side of the blade. The purpose of such a design is one in which one has sworn to no longer take a life but must still defend their own life.
pretty unimpressed.Reviewed by GARRETT L DEVITA, 2009-11-15
it didn't fall apart like the kill bill one did when i pulled it out of the same box but its about the same quality.
Awesome sword for your collectionReviewed by Carrossea, 2009-07-01
This is a really awesome sword. I would recommend any weapon
collector to add this sword to their collection! The reverse blade
makes the sword very unique. Not only that, it reminds us of our
Rurouni Kenshin hero, Kenshin Himura.
When ever my friends come over, I would always show them this sword
and impress them on how cool and unique the blade is.
I would also recommend those who have the money to buy the carbon
steel version of this knife for their collection.

I happned to recieve this as a gift and i was suprised. from what they said it came days earlier than expected it's very well made it had a really nice shine to it after i wiped off that white stuff of the blade and i really liked that. The stand was pretty nice seemed a little smaller than expected but the sword still sits on there nicely. All in All other than the stand (which i won't complain cause its free) its a really good sword and well worth the price
Good for It's purposeReviewed by Lee Duckett, 2009-06-05
This Katana is good at what it does. The reversed nature of the blade makes it safe to work with, and the reversed blade is not razor-sharp, all though it could be sharpened. I do not know if this blade has a full tang or not, but I will not be putting it through extreme duress. It does not have a point, but is rounded off, making this blade as safe as one could be and still could be considered a blade. The guard is a bit too wide to be comfortable, but that is just my personal geometry This blade itself seems of good quality. The blade was shipped promptly and arrived in great condition. The stand, as mentioned in other reviews, is of poor quality, but it is essentially a freebie that comes with the sword. In general a beutifal blade that would do wonderfully as a display or cosplay piece.
peace and love KatanaReviewed by BeDelicious, 2009-06-02
Bought it for the friend of our family. It was a big fun when we found out that the blade is on the wrong side, kind of peaceful Katana :D So, the friend had the desired sword but also his wish is still to become true to hold the real Katana someday :D.
