It's great for practicing basic Iaido moves, light cutting, and display. Mini Katana gets a lot right here for the price they list Storm Bringer for. These are all acceptable given how affordable the blade is.Īs for the good? The blade is a great length, has a wonderful color, is sharp, has tight fittings, has the Minuki (the metal decorations under the Ito wrap) in the correct places, has a good and soft Tsuba (the hand guard), is balanced around 4-6 inches up the blade, the Sageo (the cotton wrap on the Saya) is tied very well, the Bo-Hi (the groove on top the blade) makes a great swish sound and terminates well, the Mekugi (the bamboo pegs that keep the handle on the blade) are perfect lengths and don't tear the Samegawa), and more. I can always tie the Ito myself if it becomes a problem, I can sand the inside of the Kioguchi (mouth of the Saya) a little, and add a pulled cotton ball to the saya to resolve these things. 27' /70 cmBlade Material: 1060 carbon steel Blade Thickness:0.2925' /0.75 cmBlade Hardness:53 HRC Blade Grind: Convex Weight (katana Only): 39 oz /1.08 kgWeight (With Sheath): 49 oz. Lastly, the blade rattles a little in the Saya. All samurai swords are crafted using traditional method, fully functional and battle ready quality, not only for display. Secondly, the brass Habaki (the gold piece above the hand guard) does bump a little going into the Saya (scabbard). I was able to push around the cotton cord enough to see that the faux Samegawa (ray skin) does not wrap the wood on the handle the entire way around. We'll end with the good! Firstly, the Ito wrap (handle wrap) is a little loose, but won't come apart when swung around.

I only have 3 very minor issues, but a bunch of things I like. The Storm Bringer katana is worth the asking price.
