Good Katana, but it's not sharp
Disclaimer: I am a first-time buyer of a sword. The construction of the Katana and Wakizashi is well made from the suba to the blade. The ray skin feels and looks authentic, but I have one gripe with the blades, there nor sharpen. The blades are not completely dull but is not what I was expecting. Other than the dull blades everything else is pretty good.
