| I love weapons and because of that i have bought many a katana. I also happen to love anime so this was a great oppurtunity to combine those interests. Most katans i buy basically just look good and begin to wobble after about a week of just display use, the wraps around the handle have a tendancy to become on wraped and the hilt begins to just basically fall apart after a while but this weapon is extremely well crafter for being a production sword. I cant say it looks alot like kenshins but the fact that it is a sakabatu is amazing and the blade its self impresses me just as much handle. The scabbard is just as supurb as the sword and makes for an over all nice package well worth the money. For a sword being bought over the internet for this price it is a great find and worth the money. If you like ruroni kenshin i suggest buying this and if you just like katanas in general and would like a nice cheap well crafted one for display or for just the hell of swingin it around this is a great one to get =) |
Awsome sword, not so much for the stand

| I love the Sword, it's fairly durable, though the seller (sword_demon) recomends not attacking trees, they will win. You can swing this around, I've done it several times and nothing appears to be wrong. Honestly, I had expected a better stand, but since it's free who cares? The blade is aproximately 27 inches long, and the whole sword is 39 inches, 40 with the shieth on. If this is the first sword you're getting then WARNING: YOU WILL EXPERIENCE DISBELIEF THAT YOU ARE HOLDING IT, YOU MAY ALSO HAVE URGES TO SHIETH AND UNSHIETH REPEATITIVELY. In any event, I'd sugest that even though it's stainles steal, if you're going to use it out side, don't do it while it's raining or snowing. |
Must for a Kenshin Fan.

| This sword is truly like the sakabato that Himura Kenshin carries around in the anime Rurouni Kenshin. After getting this sword, I had to keep it on display in my room and show it when my friends come over. The blade is on the wrong side, "reversed" and is for those that either love the Kenshin anime, or just want to so people's expressions when they see how it is. |
Reverse blade sword

| The sword is very nicely done. There are no major visible scratches, there can be some markings on the blade but can be easily cleaned off. The sword itself is well balanced and is very sturdy, it doesnt shake in its handle and the handle is nicely made to have a firm grip. This is my first sword and for the price it is a very nice buy. |
One awesome reverse blade katana!
