Review: EXTREMELY NICE KATANA FOR THE MONEY! - The first thing I noticed when it arrived was how well it was packaged. It was very secure. Removing it from its silk wrapping, I was immediately impressed. It looked great, and felt very solid. It felt substantial as well, but not overly heavy. There is a lot of attention to detail in this blade, and it is scary sharp. Everything is tight as can be, and the grip feels awesome in the hand. I know enough about blades in general to know when I see something nice, and for the money, this is an amazing Katana. I would happily purchase it again. In fact, I like it so much that I bought their Wakizashi as well. To me, the value of an item is the sum of it's quality, features, and price. Using this formula, I can say that I am extremely pleased with both swords, and if you are looking for something in this price range, Murasame is the way to go.
Review: My Living Room Just Got 41 Inches More Intimidating!! - Alright, fellow enthusiasts of sharp objects and questionable home decor choices, let's talk about the MURASAME Katana Sword. I saw this while browsing (as one does) and thought, "You know what's missing from my life? A full-sized, handmade, clay-tempered, razor-sharp Japanese sword." My rational brain took a tea break, and suddenly, this magnificent piece of T10 steel was on its way. When this arrived, the box was long and felt important. Opening it felt like a scene from a movie where the hero finally receives their legendary weapon. And let me tell you, this sword does not disappoint. It's stunning. The real hamon line is beautiful, the brass wave tsuba (handguard) is intricate, and the ray skin and silk-wrapped handle feels incredibly secure in your hand. It looks less like something you bought online and more like a museum piece that occasionally whispers ancient secrets (or maybe that's just the wind). Holding it for the first time is an experience. It has a weight and balance that feels... purposeful. Like it knows what it's for. My immediate urge was to dramatically swing it (in a safe, open area, obviously!) and maybe challenge a particularly stubborn dust bunny to a duel. Now, my daily life doesn't involve fighting off ninjas or samurai (thankfully). But I have found some creative uses. Opening desertcart packages? This knife laughs at box tape. Slicing through junk mail? Effortless. Demonstrating the concept of "sharp" to a disbelieving friend? Highly effective (from a safe distance!). It's also a fantastic conversation starter. Guests tend to pause when they see a genuine, very sharp katana displayed in the living room. The craftsmanship is evident. It's handmade, clay tempered, and genuinely razor sharp right out of the box. It comes with a handsome hardwood saya (scabbard) that fits snugly. It feels like a tool built with respect for tradition and functionality. If you have an appreciation for Japanese swords, want a truly impressive and well-made piece (for display, practice, or very enthusiastic package opening), and are prepared for your home to feel significantly more epic, this katana is a fantastic acquisition. It's a beautiful, powerful object that brings a unique energy to the room. I'm thoroughly impressed.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Seems soft for a t10 blade, should be in the range of 63-67 hrc.  also is the saya piano lacquer or just paint. worries that corners were cut?**
A: A blade with a 63-67 hrc would shatter like glass. A machinist file is between 61-63 hrc and when I have dropped one on the floor from only 4 feet it shatters into at least 4 pieces. That hardness is usually only on machine tool cutters. As for the saya I am not sure if it is lacquer or paint.

**Q: T-10 from what I researched is pretty much just to 1095 but with just a little bit of tungsten and a bit of other trace minerals added to it correct?**
A: Yes that is what I have found to be true also.

**Q: What type of customization with no additional fee can i ask for if i buy this katana? and if so, how can i ask for that customization? thanks**
A: Hi, you need to send an Amazon email to the seller, and he will reply to your customized list. thank you.

**Q: What would it cost to make a longer tsuka on this sword? I need it to be about 15 inches instead of 10.5**
A: You would have to ask the seller

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ If you’ve ever wanted a Katana, buy this now!
*by T***R on March 16, 2023*

It is insane they are selling this for as cheap as they are. As a collector I always want to try “budget” blades to see what’s out there. This blade is no budget blade. Beautifully crafted grip to tip. It has good ergonomics and the wrapping on the handle is very pleasant. Balance is around where you would want it to be for this style of sword. Weight is very manageable and the balance offers support while swinging the weight around. WARNING: not a toy, replica, or display item. This thing is sharp!!!! Will not bend or break under normal circumstances. For all the Amazon blade trolls saying “it chipped/bent/broke when I hit a giant rock” I can only say one thing: stop hitting rocks. Other than being reckless I do not see this having quality issues with normal use. Good starter for getting into Iiado or any other cutting sport. DO NOT sharpen yourself. The edge has been forged in, not machined or ground in after the mirror finish was achieved(see blade pic, I know it’s blurry but you can see there is no grinding on the blade). That being said, this needs to be worked on by a professional or someone with access and knowledge of the professional process. Now that I have mentioned that I can honestly say the blade came out of the box extremely sharp. Passed the paper test with flying colors. When running it through paper slowly I noticed no drag points so it would appear the blade is as close to uniform as a handmade item can be. Whoever forged this deserves a raise. As for the other metal pieces they appear to be machined but whoever finished them did a good job. All pieces of this item are as snug as can be, and barring hours and hours of actual use I do not see any part of this becoming loose. All in all 5 stars does not do this company justice. You can tell they take pride in their work and they want to deliver nothing but quality. Items do have limited customization in terms of the pieces added to the blade. From what I understand you can mix and match if you send an email to the company. In summary this is a fantastic product. Which is beautifully hand crafted and assembled with a razor sharp edge and wonderful assembly tolerances. I would take 5 of these over a 1k blade any day. Will it best an authentic 5k-20k+ blade, probably not; but for someone just getting into the hobby of collecting or competition it is an out of this world deal. I am so glad I found this company and will not hesitate to purchase through them again in the future. Great job ladies and gentlemen of this company, you have created an island of quality in a sea of disappointing Amazon blades. 10/10 stars
