For one, the pictures do not do justice for this sword. It is incredible to the eye. Upon receiving the sword, I decided to check it out. It cut like butter, very light weight, easy to handle. If you get this purchase, I will warn you to be careful. My sword did not come with a box. Not sure if this is for everyone's order or just mine, so when cutting into the package be very careful.

Having serval katanas with different carbon content, I searched for the middle of 1060 and 1095. 1075 came up and tsunami dragon came up. Upon recieving this kantana several weeks later, the first thing I checked was if TRIUMPH was engraved correctly. It was, and also deeply burned in, much nicer than that of other sellers. After a wipe down of the thick oil and plastic to keep any oxidation from occurring on the way to me. I love the folded waves in the steel. The sword has a "good energy" to it, like the sword Smith loves what they do. Wrapping is tight and edge is very sharp.....maybe not razor sharp but decent. The Weight and balance are nice. The saya was so tight I have to pull it apart will all my might. I also had to get someone to pull one end to pull it out. I think that the oil swelled up the wood. I contacted tsunami dragon and they immediately sent out a replacement that I'm waiting on at the moment. Wielding this beautiful sword, I noticed it has a loud audible woosh as it cuts through the air. Maybe because I'm all excited about it ...lol. so, this is the part your asking yourself......get to the important part, how it cuts ...Tameshigiri. I dont have any tatami mats but I do know where a bamboo forest grows. This is the most anxious moment with your new sword. Will the edge roll or chip. Will it bend or twist like 1045 steel does. I see a 1" bamboo tree...I swing and it goes through like air. A thicker 2" gets it next....cuts through with ease. Now the 4" bamboo I put more power into it. I swung and I thought something was wrong with the bamboo, like it was a sprout/shoot. Well it cut through so easily that I tried a 1/2" tree branch...then a 2" tree branch. It survived without any damage to the katana. I'm happy with this sword. It's an excellent buy and beautifully crafted for the price under 200$. This katana will meet your expectations and exceed them. I will buy another sword from these guys in the future. I have my eye on a L6 steel katana. Since this seller is basically a manufacturer of decent quality products, their prices are lower than resellers of swords. This sword is worth double the price. Tsunami dragon swords are a good purchase.Read full review

I used it in several cutting probes, even I have cut some cheap metal bars into two. Not even a scratch on blade after it. Meat is sliced with it into two in no second. I chopped a pig's body half with it.
