I bought this sword and all I can say is: pure beaty. Its cutting action is amazing very smooth. A bit different then katanas with a less weighty tsuba due to the weight shift. But I personally con't feel to much effect from it. It was a bit pricy for
me to let it come over BUT totally worth it. A++ guys keep it going!. Warning for Belgian (or EU) costumers: you will have to pay income taxes due to the fact its from a country outside the EU it sucks I know but its totally worth the pay

I dont know if this is the place to be asking this but none the less... Is the V3 Tsuba still going to have the woman/Kappa design? WE WILL HAVE THE NEW V3 SAMPLE DONE VERY SOON AND THERE WILL BE AN EXTRA TSUBA IN THE KIT AS WELL.

nice but not awesome, could not cut paper sheet like United Cutlery United Black Kogane. I think blade is too thick but for cutting bigger targets might be very good, I did not check it. Also blade steel has visible discoloration on the surface. But on
the other hand is very cheap.

I bought a v2 about 3 years ago- awesome sword guys! to be honnest i don't like the v3, the polished saya and themed copper tsuba looks much better / added to the sword's character

I have the v2 of this sword. Honestly for the price, what you get is really worth it. The Genuine hamon is beautiful and natural, and the blade just shimmers. The fittings were all of good quality as well, no loose parts. Recommended for people who want
a little more than entry level.

Lame Awesome!
