Honshu Full Tang Tactical Katana

This katana version of a quality Honshu blade is just a longer tip version of the wakizashi blade. The handle is exactly the same, it should have a longer handle to compensate for the longer blade, and the blade is the same thickness and width when it should be taller... but I suppose even a top sword maker like Honshu is willing to cut cost when it can. As a result the feel is off balance. Too bad because the blade is of quality steel, just poorly designed. The wakizashi is the real deal and the blade to buy here, not the bogus katana.....

This is the sword made for loping ar5ms off because I had a deer and I cut its arm off easy with this cool sword but what sucks is you have to keep oiling it but its worth it so if you what a sword that can protect you if you get yea house broke in this is it.

This is a wonderful sword. Not a wall hanger. Solid, sharp and a great addition to any collection. I also have the shorter one.

Great looking sword, very sharp... only problem is that the description is misleading, the sword is not 41" overall its 38" overall. I unsheathed the katana and thought "this is small" I than measured it and was disappointed. The 3" difference is noticeable. I was pretty upset! ... they should change the product description and stop lying about the overall length of this katana
