Sehr schönes Katana, genau so wie beschrieben..... Die Schärfe ist ausreichend und die gesamte Verarbeitung ist vernünftig, die ein oder andere Kleinigkeit kann man noch nacharbeiten. Alles in allem echt empfehlenswert.

Für den Preis unschlagbar! Nach Jahren habe ich mich endlich für den Kauf eines Katana entschieden, um Schnittests machen zu können, und meine Wahl fiel auf das Musashi Ichi. Für den Preis sollte man nicht allzuviel erwarten, jedoch besticht dieses Schwert durch seine Formschönheit, seine gut ausgeprägte Bo Hi und den gut sichtbaren Hammon-Schliff. Die einfach gehaltene Saya unterstreicht die Simplizität der Tsuba ohne billig zu wirken. Es ist sehr scharf und liegt gut in der Hand. Der Schwerpunkt befindet sich ca. 12 cm über der Tsuba. Das Musashi Ichi verfügt zudem über einen breiten Klingenrücken, der dem Schwert den nötigen Impuls für Tameshigiri verleiht. Das Schwert ist gut für den Schnittest geeignet, es schneidet sauber und gerade. Die Klinge sitzt leider etwas zu locker in der Saya und die Klinge ist ab der Klingenzwinge nicht durchgehend, sondern eingerückt. Leider sind die Bambusstifte, die den Griff halten etwas zu lang geraten und haben bei meinem Schwert Bambussplitter dran. Fazit: Ein handgeschmiedetes, funktionales, ausgewogenes und für Schnittests geeignetes Katana zum Top-Preis!

also a aesthetically handsome decorative piece. haven't tried using it for cutting, but when cleaning it one time, a very small portion of my palm touched the blade and i was cut. so it is really sharp.

Ich bin mit dem Katana sehr zufrieden. Es sieht zum einen gut aus und zum anderen ist es auch Scharf und Stabil gefertigt. Für den Preis nur empfehlenswert.
