Shinwa Regal Makaku Wakizashi / Samurai Sword

Very happy with the finish and quality. Had a katana and wanted this to closely match to complete the set.

This is my first Shinwa sword, but it won't be my last. The packaging was second to none. Beautiful show box. The sword came sharp right out of the box. The Damascus steel pattern on the blade has a high "cool factor". With the tan handle wrapping, and black ray skin complementing it. The saya is very nice and matches the sword. This Wakizashi has a nice weight to it, with the POB (point of balance) being just right! For the price, this one is tough to beat.

I love the look, now all I need is a Tanto version and I will have a full set.

I have the katana so I had to get the matching wakizashi. Looks great. Feels great. Nice and sharp. Straight. Comes in a nice wine red storage box. Thanks Budk!

If you were looking for a good samurai sword you found one. I was not disappointed with the functionality or workmanship of the sword. I mostly use mine to cut milk cartons filed with water. I recommend only using it on moist substances I'm not sure how well it works on dry substances. Awesome sword thanks budk!!!

Not over joyed at delivery. Took 10 working days. Now to the good stuff. This blade is sharper and better quality than any of my other blades. This includes my $940 Thaitsuku.

This well balanced Samurai Sword, came to me last week, and I began to study up on Wakizashi... I'm impressed by the craftsmanship... The blade was not sharped at the end tip) of the blade, other than that, the blade is a steal... As soon as the price goes down alittle, I'm buying another one...

First off ill just say that the blade is verry well balanced and cuts well. It isnt exeptionally sharp or strait but the over all geometry makes up for it. Right out ouf the vox the kissaki was well formed but extreamly blunt. Like wasnt even polished to an edge. This was easily remedied with some sharpening. Over all it is a good blade but i wouldnt call it top shelf either.
