The sword itself was exactly as described and the delivery and timing was great, HOWEVER, the sword feels very off inside of the saya and at times can be a struggle to get it out of it. I would also like to note that while the sword itself is very sturdy I would NOT recommend paying extra for a razor sharp feature because I had payed the extra and was pretty unsatisfied with how surprisingly dull it was, maybe it was just because I was unlucky however with my purchase I was expecting razor sharp and got slightly above par. Overall though it was a great sword and the service was great I just had slight turn-offs from the hand-done parts. Would still recommend the sword for people who are looking for an above average sword for a good price. ---Jacob

This is a very well made replica of the Japanese swords with a very hardened and therefore easy to keep sharp and it is sharp where it counts. To the tip and upper blade. The handle is very comfortable and the look is appealing.

I've wanted a good sword for a while. Today I decided to have one custom made. I am not tech savvy at all. I only speak the Queen's English, and redneck. Ordering a custom sword from China was possible due to the patience and knowledge of Lyueswords. Ruan is the best. The swords are amazing, and the price is more than fair.do not hesitate to do business with them. They have 100% positive rating for a reason. They earned it. The sword it's self is outstanding! Fit and finish are top shelf! The materials and workmanship are better than I could hope. Sharp. Clean. Better balanced than any other I've held. Beautiful..... I'm a huge fan... thank you so much for making this for me. I could not be happier. Home run Ruan!

I liked the Katana enough to order a matching wakizashi and tanto. Although it took much longer to receive, fortunately the zombie apocalypse didn't occur, I am very happy with the quality and looks of the two swords.
