Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)This is not a toy: this is a fully sharpened, high carbon (not stainless) steel shirasaya.
I bought it based on the reviews at sword-buyers-guide.com, where it is demonstrated to cut bamboo like butter.
The habaki (brass collar between the blade and the handle) rattles a bit, but that's minor.
As with all shirasaya, extreme caution is called for, as the rosewood handle, while beautiful, offers a pretty poor grip when compared to wrapped ray skin.
All in all, I'm very happy with this purchase. Strongly recommended.

The blade of the sword is constructed from carbonsteel and features a visible temper line. The blade is full tang. The saya is wooden with a dark stained finish. The saya has been crafted to contour the shape of the blade. And fits seamlessly into the handle.
