See what people are saying about our Samurai swords

"Ordering the sword was great experience the website offers valuable information on swords and the metal choices available. The sword arrived in good time for shipping to Australia and in good condition -(well oiled and just how I wanted). Definitely recommend joining the VIP membership for the offers provided. The sword was really sharp even without the ultra sharp option -(I'm scared at the level ultra sharp will have on swords after only ordering the sharp option myself). And their customer service and support is probably the best I've ever seen." 

Zach Patterson

"I have ordered to date 4 swords and even though all of them are custom sized, I have found that they arrived in a timely manner. I have a 3 piece set consisting of katana, wakizashi, and tanto. I have also begun to start a 2nd set. So far I have the katana built and will be ordering the wakizashi and tanto to complete the set. The swords are truly a work of art. Very beautiful. I have contacted customer service on several occasions regarding custom swords and have found them to be very helpful and prompt with responses. I will continue to order more blades as I am a very happy customer."

"The craftsmanship on this folded Clay Tempered Katana is truly exceptional. The blade is very sharp and well-made, and the tempering process creates a unique visual effect with a wavy hamon. The fittings are also well-designed and complement the blade perfectly.

I chose the Hadori polish to enhance the sword and added high quality saya and the result is remarkable, I couldn't be happier!

Pink Katana for Wife

"I recently purchased the Handcrafted Pink Katana Sword  for my wife birthday , and I am absolutely thrilled with my purchase. The sword arrived quickly and was packaged very securely, which is always a plus when buying something fragile like a sword.

When I gave it to my wife, she was very excited from this gift and especially liked that it's pink (her favorite color).

Overall, I would highly recommend this samurai sword website to anyone who is looking for a high-quality Katana. The craftsmanship is top-notch and the sword is truly a work of art. I am very pleased with my purchase and would definitely buy from this website again in the future."

Vincent Mitchell

United States

"First off, the app to customize a sword is the best thing I've ever seen. This really allowed my artistic side to come out and I ended up changing my original idea because it didn't flow well once I saw it. Playing around with options allowed me to make the sword that I absolutely love! I chose the T10 steel, based on the description and research I did on the types of metal. I got it extra sharp and this is my display, mat cutting sword.
The wait time was relatively short and the expected time was accurate with zero issues in shipping and delivery.
The day came when it was delivered and I was so happy. It far exceeded my expectations and is my favorite sword! I have ordered 2 from Katanas For Sale and 1 from another place (sorry, I cheated on you). The one from the other place was 3 weeks late and I was so disappointed. The balance was off. The curve was horrible. That experience made me appreciate the quality so much more. I would 100% recommend this place and the sword they make. I will certainly purchase more.

Thank you to everyone at Katanas For Sale that participated in my order, making of the sword, and shipping it to me. Great experience all around. And that seems more and more rare to be able to say these days."

The Steel

Our most basic steel for a Katana is the 1060 carbon which is considered as our entry level for all of our Samurai swords.

If you plan to use your custom sword for cutting exercises, the best steel you can get is a clay tempered blade either made of 1095 carbon steel or T10 tool steel. Both are quite similar however, the T10 contains tungsten properties which makes it more tough and resistant to scratches.

Another modern steel we offer is the 9260 Spring steel which has silicon added to it, which results in a significant increase in fatigue resistance and allow for maximum flexibility. These are highly durable and for most dojo applications they are extremely resistant to bending and failures.

Tamahagane steel should be the choice if you are with budget and want to have the traditional steel used for Samurai swords in history.

Each one of the steel above will create a blade that is fully functional and battle ready, and can be used for test cutting.
