Beautiful Katana!
The sword looks even better in person! The unique fittings are what really sold me on this model and I wasn't disappointed! The hamon and saya are also very stunning! There are a few minor imperfections worth noting. The bo hi doesn't terminate in the same place on each side of the blade and the ito slightly overlaps the fuchi in some spots. Other than that, everything feels tight and solid. I absolutely love this sword! Thanks Ronin!
