after months of searching
I started shopping around for a "real" sword a few months before ronin released this model. I had a hard time deciding on which one to get because there's so many on the market to choose from. After reading about Ronin on the sword buyers guide website i checked out their site and fell in love with this blade. It took a little over a week to get, it was over thanksgiving weekend. I have to say the pics don't do these swords justice, you have to hold one to really appreciate what a work of art they are. The tsuka was tight, as were all the wrappings. As for the blade, all i can say is,wow! I didn't have anything to cut except for some leftover Halloween pumpkins. Every slice was like something from a samurai movie. The slice was so clean that the top part of the cut didn't move right away, but since it was on an angle, it slowly slid off. Upon further inspection of my first cut i noticed how clean it was, even the seeds were halved! I would highly recommend this sword or any other sword Ronin produces.
