Aluminum Alloy Practice Samurai Sword Katana Kendo	August 31, 2009
Reviewer: Ernest Harper from Altus, OK United States

I was hoping that this sword would not be like most aluminum swords under $50.00. Most are poorly made and may last a few months before things start to come loose or break. This sword IT'S NOT like most! I was very happy to see this is a very well made sword and has more weight to it then some of the other aluminum swords I've seen. This sword is worth every penney and I would have been willing to pay more if I knew how well it was made before buying it. I have taken Iado for years and now take Haidong Gumdo which places more requirements on the sword due to the longer more complex forms. This sword would be a great practice sword for both arts! I give this sword 5 stars for craftmanship, looks and feel!
