It even comes with a pamphlet about proper katana care and maintenance, as well as a certificate of authenticity that features the date it was made. There is just something I love about blue katanas and this one has the purest blue of any I own; sometimes they lean more towards an indigo hue (which I also love) but this blade appears an entrancing cerulean when held to the light. I planned to use this katana for Iaido if it was balanced and fit well in my hands, and it certainly delivered. The blade itself comes pre-oiled and sharpened, the blade geometry and curvature are more like a blade you'd expect from a higher price bracket, and really show the craftmanship and care that went into its design. The tsuka (handle) is well made and tightly bound giving it a solid grip, I absolutely love this style of tsuba (guard) that is simple, not overly ornate, and balances the sword well. The saya (scabbard) is simple in its design, but is certainly designed well for my purpose; it is a bit tight and makes the sword difficult to draw but I'm sure this will ease up over time. Overall I absolutely love the overall aesthetic and feel to this katana, if you are looking to practice Iaido this sword will serve you well. The simplicity and practicality of the some of the hardware elements may leave something to be desired if you were buying it purely as a display piece, but it all comes down to personal taste, and I think this katana is absolutely tasty!
