The overall artisanship of their Katanas for Iaidō are immaculate; the solid Tsuba has Sakuras shapes cut into it; additionally, other Sakuras that are overlayed onto the Fuchi, which is very elegant much like the Menuki Sakura within the Tsuka on top of the Samegawa, which is under the Tsukaito. Moreover, the cotton Tsukaito feels extremely comfortable in the hands; and the balance of the Katana is also perfect as it does not feel weighted or biased to one side or another. I.e., it feels like an extension of one. Also, the Kashira is just as beautiful as all the other Cherry Blossoms that decorate this wonderful Katana. The Saya is also extremely well-made and has an ostensible shine to it, i.e., polished, which is pleasing to the eye. The Toshin/Nagasa is stunning; e.g., the Notare Hamon is engaging as one eyes follow the flowing lines like Mizu (Water) dancing on the Toshin: stunning craftsmanship. The steel blade is truly nicer juxtaposed to an alloy one as it is heavier, and thus, more closer to an actual LIVE Katana. Regarding customer service, it is excellent as one YariNoHanzo's representatives ("M") not only wrote back to me due to a query I had about their Iaidōgi (for beginners) in my order, but she also alerted me of when my order was being shipped and provided a tracking number too. Transparency and honesty are lacking within most companies, but not this one. Suffice it to say, I will be ordering another superior Katana, a custom one, a little later into my Keiko/Iaidō.

Die Abbilder der Schwerter sind teils klein so das man Details nicht erkennen kann. Der Bestellprozess ist nicht umständlich aber auch nicht einfach, die Rechnungen sind unübersichtlich, kleine Bilder und nichtssagende Bestellnummern. Eine Identifizierung der Artikel nach Jehren ist schwierig. Die Bestellabwicklung, der Versand und die Anlieferung haben bisher immer funktioniert. Die Beschreibung der Artikel ist nicht so gut gemacht und man kann z.B. nicht nach technischen Daten suchen. Auch sind diese auf einer Nebenseite „versteckt“.

The website made the order easier and i had no problem with the payment method i choosed. I didn't had to communicate with customer service so i have no opinion about it but it's still a point for you guys. Shipped with GLS within 11 days in factory condition. First impressions as i took it out from the box was "Now, that's a professional manufacturer who make iaito for people who can't afford a more expensive one, but still good quality." I would recommend and will buy from you again! Thank you very much!

I ordered a katana from YariNoHanzo and overall I’m very satisfied. The sword arrived safely at my house and was well protected during shipping. The blade, fittings, and overall construction feel solid for the price. The tsuba has a detailed design and the sword looks great in person. There were a few minor issues. The tsuka-ito is slightly loose and the saya had some white residue inside, which left dust on the blade when drawing it. The sword also arrived with a thick protective oil coating that needed cleaning. Despite these small issues, the sword feels sturdy and offers good value for a budget katana. I would recommend YariNoHanzo to anyone looking for an entry-level katana.

After a misunderstanding about an email I sent and apparently got lost, I posted a bad review. Directly they contacted me to sort out what the problem was. I could resend my email and they directly acted on it. Reason for me to change my point of view and rewrite my review. Thanks, guys, for reaching out to me; realy appreciate that. Big thumbs up!

…but customer support is great. Very helpful, quick responses, solution-oriented. Despite an initial error within the order process, we received immediate assistance. Product quality, packaging and delivery add up to a satisfying customer experience - which cannot be taken for granted nowadays. Thanks a lot for that. 👍

Харесвам качеството на продуктите ви. От години ползвам различни ваши мечове в заниманията си по иайдо. Всичките ми допадаха, но моделът ви Musashi XL е личтият ми фаворит. Идеално пасна на ръстта и телосложението ми като размер, баланс и изработка. Поздрави от България!

The order arrived within the promised delivery time, at the earliest estimated date. Everything was well packed and arrived in perfect condition. The products met my expectations, and the sword even exceeded them.

The quality of the katana is great, the materials; etc; everything is great I am really happy to find this store that has great material; The customer support is good. they keep you informed and solve your doubts. I will definitely buy again. Thanks a lot

I received the katana I ordered exactly as it was shown on their website. The katana is beautiful, but there is a small blemish on the blade that looks like rust, and I can't clean it off. I'll keep an eye out for deals on my next order.

Ordered 12 Naginatas. One tip broke off when it touched the ground. Otherwise everything was great. Quick shipping. Be aware of additional custom fees or tariffs in the US. (But not huge fees). I have not raised the issue with customer service.

I am happy with the purchase! You could improve the quality of the transport. The sword is in good condition, excellent for kata training. It gave me guidance for my next purchase.

Fast and straightforward assistance via email. The handling and exchange of defective clothing was excellent. Many thanks, Marta :)

Every single purchase was met with professionalism, speed of delivery, no hidden taxes or fees, and great products. Can't recommend it enough.

Excellent product. Their website is difficult to navigate or might have bought a different sword.

I think the sword is well made, balanced and it worth the price: the delivery was fast and perfect, I'll buy again. bravo

the quality of the katana is great, the details amazing, I already bought 2 katanas and I am planning to get another one

one star for quality of product, one star for easy process to purchase, one star for customer care, one star for speed of delivery, zero for high cost on post and packing.

Price and quality of the replacement saya were good Shipping to and customs in US tripled the cost Otherwise i m satisfied.

La mejor sin duda, Marta es increíble, le debo una cena. Profeionales y atentos, aunque aun no he recibido mi pedido
