Product Description
The Honshu Boshin® Double Edge Sword fuses tradition and innovation to yield a masterwork of modern sword design. The sword boasts a 30 1/2” 1060 high carbon steel blade that’s unrivaled in sharpness and strength. Trading traditional trappings for sleek contemporary style, the cutting edge Boshin® is an undeniably modern weapon. Textured TPR shrouds the handle for an ergonomic no-slip grip and the handle is crowned with an oversized polished steel pommel. The guard snubs fanciful ornamentation in favor of a practical pointed ellipse design. In keeping with the Boshin® sword’s clean, functional motif, the scabbard is wooden with a semi-gloss black finish and features black faux leather wrapping and cotton cord. Wielding the Honshu Boshin® Double Edge Sword is almost Zen-like - you just have to experience it for yourself!
I just got my sword today and I'm super stoked! Its very solid well made deffinetley capable of real use like shtf or zombie killin / self defense. No question in my mind itll hold up to some seriously rugged abuse. Grip is awesome blade isnt sharp but otherwise is freakin awesome I highly recommend it. I'd buy it again no question. I LOVE THIS SWORD ITS FREAKIN BAD ASS!!!

A gift that keeps gives on giving.
Nioh here again black belt weapon expert. This sword is a gift that keeps giving left to right , down an back up , whatever way an back. Cut through objects with ease it give walls,wood, and metal hell if your opponent isn’t careful it will be a smooth chop an a sudden drop. It’s safe to trust in this sword I gave it opportunity an it didn’t let me down and it won’t you. If your shopping blades shop Budk an Honshu they don’t Disappoint.

Absolutely awesome modern longsword
Took no time at all to arrive and came perfectly! No damage or any issues anywhere on the outside and the blade is perfect. Oiled and wrapped paper slicing blade. This is my first Honshu product and first time using BudK. Was not disappointed with either. Surprised actually because I purchased multiple items at once and all were amazingly perfect. Going to have to order some more now! Thank you Honshu and BudK!

Good sword and priced well
I read the reviews about it having no wabble at all and I disagree, if you notice in the picture there is no Habaki peice which keeps the sword from sliding so while swinging the sword i could feel movement unfortunately. Still the sword is worth it very well made for the cost, not a big fan of the handle grip its a little rough but you can fix it if you wanted to. I like the fact that its a straight sword and not curved with the spear tip for stabbing. The double edge is good but does lose strength due to it. The Scabbard is nice as well. I haven't tested cutting bamboo yet but I'm sure it will still i wouldve liked a demo showing it cutting bamboo. All together i say its a fun sword to have at a great value. In the pic is where the Habaki would be.

Very Cool!
Absolutely love it, it is my 1st and only sword, I'm very pleased with the quality of the sword, but the scabbard is kinda crappy, but overall I still love it. Thank you BUDK.

Very Nice Product
This Sword looks Bulky and Heavy - Wrong - This Sword Is Badass - Nicely Balanced - Hold it one hand up close to the guard point down - You Hardly know its there - Very well made and A Looker as well - Yes it could be a bit sharper but you must be a very good swordsman to use one razor sharp - If you have to use this - It Will Not Disappoint - Swing and Recover Very Fast with this sword - For this price - You cant go wrong - Scabbard is exactly what I was looking for as well - Plain but not a piece of junk - I bought this to walk my dogs and not scare the neighbors lol

Very nice looking . but...
Just wish it came in a little sharper. I own this and one other of this brand, I would like if they could sharpen them a little more.

Honshu Double Edge Sword
Excellent product !!!
Tested sharpness on it & the companion Honshu Parang, both cut like a hot knife thru butter ! Hell, it even cutting me while polishing & oiling
Engraving was on the wrong side of the blade & not exactly what I asked for, but the blades are so good I decided to keep them both & will order 1 more.
Better than excellent for Ren Faire use !!!!

Slick and sharp - and very cool!
I’ve always wanted a sword from the RenFest but they were so expensive. This one is way more affordable and more practical. It’s also very sharp! This is best sword I’ve ever purchased! Great job BudK!

Very nice
I love the simplistic and functional handle. Double edge was a must for me. Looks great and is sharp right out of the package.

Wow!
This sword is awesome, it came sharp the front is sharper then the back edge (which I prefer) I also thought it was going to be too long but its the right length. I wish the guard was bigger but it will do, the scabbard has a wood core and a hard material around it, no idea what it is but its tough, and the guard and pommel are tightly secured. This is a awesome sword for the price I MIGHT GET ANOTHER ONE, THANKS BUDK AND HONSHU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Good not great
I read the reviews about it being solid without movement but after swinging it i fealt alot of movement and then noticed it does not have a habaki peice which keeps the sword from sliding on katanas. I also don't like the hand grip its a little rough but thats easy to customize. The sword is well made i like how its a straight sword with spear tip for stabbing although the double edge takes away from its hardness a lil bit. Good scabbard and overall good sword for the price. I did not try to cut bamboo with it yet and would've loved a demo of so.

Solid but Unsharp
The feel of the blade is just "okay." It's a bit on the heavy side. With that in mind, it is solid as hell and a little heavy. The steel seems well constructed and the hilt feels good in the hand. The biggest problem I had was both edges are almost False. I can run it across paper and nothing.
