Review of: Practical XL Katana

This is a beautiful katana with simple high-quality furnishings, and very nice fit, and finish. It has the impressive XL blade geometry and build design, for heavier duty tameshigiri, and the sword is very well-balanced for its size and weight. The blade that I received has a beautiful hamon, and is very sharp. The tsuka-ito came tightly wrapped, and with nice equal size diamond shapes tied into the handle ito. The saya is a really nice quality high-gloss black piano lacquered saya, with a nice fit around the habaki, and a quality sageo. The katana arrived well-packaged and was shipped and arrived very fast. Thank you again.

Review of: Hanwei/ Tinker Training Longsword

I bought this along with a sharp. It is decent construction and a good entry into long sword training. I do not regret buying it.

Review of: Practical Plus XL Light Katana

I have collected a lotta swords (and stuff). but I did NOT have a real katana. For a collector, that's like collecting guns and not having an M1911 - it's almost morally wrong. So, when I happened to come into some extra cash AND MR offered their awesome Black Friday deal, I decided it was time! I wanted one I KNEW was meant to use, so I went for the "practical" line. There were four, and after comparing I went for the most expensive one... I wanted it to LOOK good too, and I also wanted the longer type with a typical handle length. I am sure fully pleased!! Just even looking at it, it was plain this was no-foolin' good steel, not some chromed crap...., and a big hunka hunka steel it is. Thick, hefty and sharp (in case you were wondering, as I was), but not out of balance. No loose fittings anywhere. Simple, but beautiful to the eye. It is exactly what I was looking for!

Review of: Tourney Hand and a Half Sword

Great sword! Absolutely love the look and feel. I haven't used it in training yet but I have no doubt that this sword can take a beating. My only issue is that the tip end of the blade does not have much flex. Maybe not the best sword for hard sparing. All and all this sword seems to be a great training partner against a Pell.
