Product Description
This Musashi Midnight Warrior Katana is one of the greatest values on the sword market today. The blade is hand forged of 1045 and 1060 carbon steel that has been folded 11 times resulting in 4096 layers. The blade was then clay tempered to produce a true hamon line and an edge hardness of 58RC. But this isn't just a pretty display piece, this Musashi sword is a full-tang, battle-ready sword that has been double pegged to the hardwood handle to ensure it can withstand even the harshest cutting scenarios. It even includes a hardwood case, sword storage bag and cleaning kit!
Prettiest sword in my collection so far, the folded steel and gunome style hamon have me staring at it for longer than I feel like admitting. These are actually kobuse laminated as well which makes them a real bargain. Can't wait to try it on some tatami mats I've got soaking

More than I expected.
This is truly a five-star blade, easily worth twice the price or more. Cuts are clean and precise, and mine has performed against targets not recommended for the grade of steel, cutting easily through 1.5 and 2 inch bamboo. If you're in the market for a bargain, grab this one while it's still available!

I got this sword a bit ago and love it every thing is tight the Harmon is subtle but reall. The factory edge is ok but if you know what your doing you can sharpen it enough to shave with no joke.

I got this sword some time ago. I got it from where there mystery boxes. And I'll have to say, highest quality swords I have. I the detail, is amazing. The photos don't do it justice until you hold the blade in your own hands.

It's fair to say that, as my skill and knowledge increased, I demanded more from my katana...and have paid more for each one, until this Midnite Kame. While easily three times the last sword I bought, it is a third the price, and the picture online doesn't do it justice by half! It is beautiful, it is sharp and it is a fearsome blade.

We have been training on sword arts in our martial arts class. As I was looking for an entry level sword that would allow me to practice cutting in class at a reasonable price, I found this to be a good choice. <br /><br />Aesthetics: Beautiful construction, solid fittings and tightly assembled. True hamon can be seen. The finish on the scabbard is impecable. An excellent addition as a display piece. (5 of 5)<br /><br />Blade: It is sharpened and like any other sword, it demands caution when handling. (5 of 5)<br /><br />Performance: In class, our instruction did a demo with his sword on bamboo. I tried my first cut on the same type of bamboo, in class. I didn't cut the material the first time. After the second strike it did slice it cleanly. However, the sword was dented. I didn't expect this to happen from a folded steel sword. I can be sharpened back to form. Feels balanced and comfortable when handling. (3 of 5)<br /><br />Overall: A good entry level sword for cutting "practice" if you are trully training in the arts. However, for serious performance cutting or competition, I would recommend a higher quality blade (and more training). Excellent as a display item.

not worth the price, Musashi really let me down on this sword. Blade "looks" well made, the rest of sword is lacking craftsmanship.
