Sword Exactly As Pictured
I have purchased some items in the past where the product pictures do not match what I received, but this one matches the product images exactly. The Sakura Tsuba is beautiful and was really the reason why I wanted to purchase this. The 5160 steel sword has no hamon, but that's expected for a monotempered blade. It's got some scuff marks on the blade, but nothing that cannot be buffed out. I cannot wait to do some tameshigiri test cuts with this beast!
