1. For being made of wood, these swords are amazingly true to detail. They are not very heavy, and easy to handle. The color that they were painted was odd to me, so I sanded and repainted them, and the results were amazing. They are fantastic life size reproductions, and are great for 300 costumes.

1. I purchased this for a Christmas gift and was very impressed with the quality of the sword. it has a nice weight, good detail and is sure to please any Kill Bill fan or Katana collector. The stand is merely okay, hence the 4 rather than 5 star rating. But the sword far surpassed my expectations for the price.



2. This sword is as dull as a butter knife. I tried to cut through the cardboard box it came it and it barely cut that. It only cut in a few inches then tore the rest of the cardboard. I'll admit I don't have any training with a sword but how good do you have to be to cut cardboard. It's not even the good strong cardboard that posters come in; it's just regular cardboard. I looked at the blade's edge and it's hardly even been sharpened. And it's off center, too. The tip of the blade is still pointy and sharp, though.
   
   Also, this sword can be had for $19.99 from other retailers here at Amazon. And there's even a two-sword set for $26.99.

1. I couldn't vouch for the "vacuum" purpose of the "Hi" (I've never had to stab anyone to find out). But it does serve a very practical purpose. The "Hi" shouln't be viewed so much as a "dent" in the blade as it should be viewed as a structure. If you don't believe me then try testing this with a couple pieces of paper folded into the shape of a hollow "blade" lenth wise; one with a "Hi" and one without. I'm sure that you will find that the one without is more flexible, therefore more likely to snap from a thrusting technique. This structure was designed out of the need for swordsmen to use a slightly lighter varient of the Katana that could be easily wielded with one hand, without sacrificing power or stability. This resulted in weapons, such as the Iaito (named for the Iaido technique) which were slightly shorter, notably lighter, and had the groove running the length of the blade to balance out the defecit. Overall, this Sakabatou isn't of such a design that it would need a "Hi", but it looks nice anyway. And admitably, it is not faithful to the principle forge. But it is a good, durable blade as display pieces go, with good attention to the details. I found it a little bizarre that a sword with this legacy has a sharper blade than my shoe-cutting knives at home, which is why it lost a star. In the end, I'm glad I bought it.



2. Great sword and fast shipping. Haven't used it but seems very sturdy. Perfect sword to buy if you like Rurouni Kenshin.



3. Complete accuracey i was actualy watching some kenshin episodes and i noticed a faint HI on the right side of his sword very nice and sturdy too strong as heck, sharp enough to cut a hair. awsome buy for the price.



4. How are you gonna go and tell someone that actually knows how to forge that they're wrong, and yes I am a practitioner of the sword as well and anyone who is and not retarded knows that a "hi" or actually "bo-hi" as it is properly termed is merely to lighten the blade, all that blood groove so the blade doesn't get stuck is a bunch of BS, just like the blacksmith said. For one thing in techniqiue you wouldn't run someone through all the way to the tsuba(guard) you just thrust and at most put the top six inches or so in the person.(not that I have ever done that but I am not one to study watered down martial arts so I like it how it really is.) If you ever see real katanas(ie japanese made from a long time ago) especially the ones from eras where Japan was constantly at war, there is never a bo hi, a bo hi causes a sword to essentially not have as powerful a cut. Anyone who has even touched iaido or batto knows this, for people who just go around stabbing random stuff and has never even performed a legitimate tameshigiri(practice cutting)with the bamboo roll doesn't know a damn thing. Plus I guarantee you, any katana that is even remotely usable will cost at the very least two hundred to three hundred dollars and that is a great deal ! Cheness produce some nice ones, and hanwei has some decent ones in the lower end but very very nice ones in the upper end. I am pretty sure this blade is just surface hardened and not thorough hardened.(meaning it is not fully tempered inside and will break) And as far as full tang goes that can mean alot of different things, I have an old hanwei katana that snapped on me during a cut one day after a few years of training with it, so I dissaembled it the handle and was comparing the tang from the hanwei katana and a cheness katana the hanwei was almost half the thickness, both sowrds are considered "full tang" I'm pretty sure this blade would snap in a second if you really tried to strike something. And that means your gonna have ten or so inches of sharpened steel blade flying up at you so hopefully you luck out like me and it doesn't hit you in the face. I am giving this four stars for a nice decoration sword that can be swung around here and there but never would I consider this suitable for practice kata and absolutely never would i strike something with this, from the way it looks i could probably cut or break cut this sword in two with one of my better katanas. Just be careful not to hurt yourself and don't knock people with way more experience than you.(ie talkin crap to the blacksmith, that guy is far closer to the essence of these things than you ever will be and your ignorance and big mouth just makes you all the more stupid sounding.



5. Well as most people who reviewed this have posted strong opinions and i have replied to some i thought i might as well put my 2 cents in.
   This is a very good DECORATIVE sword. It is NOT made for actual practical use and anyone who thinks that are either very enthusiastic about their new sword or just plain childish. It was made to look nice and it does just that so don't expect anymore if you are buying this to swing it around outside and take a whack at a pole or something then just hit the little "x" button on the top of your window and dont buy it cause you will be sadly disappointed when you hurt yourself. But after this and you are still strongly compelled to buy it then go right ahead its your money.

1. Shield is absolutely brilliant, very high quality and amazingly life like!! Time to smash some Persians skulls!!!!!



2. The shield is exactly as described. The only difference is the back of my shield is black.



3. This shield is incredibly awesome. It's so life like, well only by a bit because the actual shield is 32 inches in diameter. Anyways I ordered mine on a Saturday before the week for Halloween. It was true to it's shipping date estimates and I got it on Thursday before Halloween. When I first picked it up, it didn't really feel like a 12 pounder at all. That was because I held it from the hand grip. The details of the shield being the color,the smeary black part, and even battle dents look pretty well made. Finally wielding the shield was the most greatest feel. After a few hours of playing with it the velcro strap kinda left me a pressure bruise, I can understand that cause the shield is heavy once it's on. Anyways this is the perfect shield for the spartan costume unlike that pathetic small "official 300 costume shield" that stupid thing was pathetic, but when it comes to this shield you feel like a spartan.
   
   
   This is indeed the coolest shield from the past. Well actually not cause I don't think they had this shield design back then...but who cares. I love my new shield. I recommend this shield to anyone who likes the movie 300.

1. I was impressed with the workmanship. I just thought it would be a little bigger. Great decorative sword. I did not know it was going to be so small. I am glad I only paid 18 bucks for the sword.
