Saw these on the sight(out of stock unfortunately). Went to thier website(very nice looking) but cant find any kind of cutting tests or reviews. They have 14 pages of video on youtube but only to show the different katanas they make. No destructive tests,cutting tests, etc.

Does anybody own one of these and if so.....what are your thoughts?? I am interested in them....but I dont want to spend money on a hunk of crap if i dont have to.

I have two wakizashi from them. I have a review of both here. Good blades for the price but no miracles. Good balance and better than average fittings which is a plus. The great thing about this company is that they use fittings not usually seen elsewhere... adds a little variety to you options. Worth the money if your thinking of getting one.

I think they are ok for the money, but I think Masahiro has better models, but not as much choice.

Are the blades tatami worthy?? Or just water bottles, pool noodles etc.

I tried to cut with one, but it wa a no go. I only have the cheaper models, so I am unsure as to the more expensive models.
