Scratch and Dent Dojo Pro Level Samurai Sword #26

When I opened the box and took out the sword, I wiped off the oil on the blade and started looking for flaws. I couldn't find any. I checked the scabbard. Seems perfect. The only thing I can see that might not be perfect is the red to seems a little off on the exact shade of red. I will take an extreme discount for such a small thing any day. I have bought several scratch and dent swords from Ronin Katana and all have been well worth the price.

I purchased this sword on a whim. I bought a regular priced elite and this blade came in better condition. (Sharper, better polish). There are a few tiny flaws here and there but well worth the money! I will continue to buy from the scratch and dent pile for life.

My 2nd s&d dojo pro and 4th ronin katana with one on the way. my 1st s&d dojo pro was spotless. I couldn't find a flaw ... this one I was atleast able to find why it was a s&d. It had a small ding on the saya and the ito was pretty loose. It looked as tho someone tried to glue a few spots so maybe it was a return either way 2 coats of poly tightened the ito right up. Overall it was a heck of a deal and I'd definitely buy again. In my opinion the dojo pro is one of the best bang for your buck katanas on the market. Great cutters, clean attractive builds, and very tough

The #26 not only displays the bold Red & Black colors of my alma mater (you know the school), but it bears a beautifully constructed blade that’s as sharp and strong as anything you could buy for ten times the price. I have no idea why the sword I received was considered “scratch and dent.” I could only find the slightest blemish on the fuchi (so small I had to really search for it). The blade itself, the tsuka, tsuba, & saya are all pristine once I wiped everything off well after taking it out of the box. But I guess that’s a testament to Ronin’s exacting standards. I’m super pleased with this katana—the 8th sword I’ve bought from Ronin.

Amazing quality sword from the Scratch & Dent sale. There was some minor discoloration on the blade but I was able to polish that out easily. Other than that I don't see anything wrong with this katana. I chose to disassemble and swap out the tsuba, a task that went perfectly. Disassembly and reassembly was easy. Blade cuts fantastic, perfect clean swipe right through the thick cardboard box it arrived in. Very happy for a sword of this quality at this price point.

This scratch and dent sword was in excellent shape with no major flaws. It was an excellent deal.

I bought this from the scratch and dent sale and honestly cannot find any imperfection. It cuts very well and the balance is great. It's my first sword from RoninKatana and definitely won't be the last.

Absolutely stunning; was perplexed when first handling the seemingly perfect blade, as I could t figure out why it was half price per scratch and dent. Later see a small chip on bull horn part of the saya... Still can't believe the price for that. Also, this thing sureholds up against 2-4 in. Branches; barely a scratch, some bend but that was after so much cutting my shoulder felt like falling off. Love this sword

Looked and looked and couldn’t find scratches or dents. This sword is a beast. Little front heavy but very nice. Should last forever with normal use.
