Outstanding
This is my first katana and I couldn’t be happier. Sword is tight and the finish all around is very strong. As an entry level I expected some issues with it but have not found any. I will not hesitate to purchase from you again. Be advised to any person new to buying a Japanese sword, it is addicting as I want to buy more of them.

Quality control
For the most part I'm satisfied with this sword however there are some things I wish were done better. There were some light dings on the tsuba and the edge. Also the menuki are loose and can be moved around. the wood is also showing underneath the ray skin. I'm not quite sure how this got through quality control maybe the person checking the sword just wasn't paying very much attention or I was sent a scratch and dent sword by mistake. Overall this is a good sword and I would recommend however I would like to see ronin step up their game on quality control.
