#5
The #5 is, without a doubt, my favorite tsuba. The blades of the Dojo Pro line are all expertly crafted and are equivalent across the line, as should be expected with workhorse blades. But the attention to detail is what sold me!

Dojo Pro #5
For $300 this is an excellent sword. Very stiff feel, nothing is loose, blade is sharp and looks nice. Nothing very flashy but very functional. I also own a Ronin ko katana, I believe #22. I love it! In my opinion the Ronin Dojo Pro line is top notch for the $300 price range.

Dojo pro #5
This is my first katana I’ve ever bought and it’s really really nice. It cuts real nice as well. One think I do want to say is the scabbard had a lot of wood dust inside as I drew the blade and had to keep wiping it down. Highly suggest you guys sand the wood. Also it is a bit lose scabbard to habaki.

High Quality Katana
When I first ordered this sword I wasn't expecting much, but Ronin blew my expectations out of the water! I received a high quality sword no faults or marks, it swings very well, and is perfectly balanced. If you are looking for affordable quality katana swords look no further than roninkatana!
