Sword looks good on my wall ready for action

It’s absolutely perfect, no other words.

The blade is decent. It is differentially hardened, but only to about a 55 HRC. It was a PAIN to disassemble for cleaning. The Ito is not tight, and just one session of tameshigiri on four pool noodles messed up the diamonds. The blade looks amazing but needed sharpening before it could even cut the noodle foam. They advertise that the samegawa is fake, but it stands out and makes the entire sword look cheap. I love the look of the saya, but it rattles a lot, and the gold highlights in the ito are great, but the fake plastic samegawa and loose wrapping ruin the entire look. You're only paying for the steel, it cuts, with sharpening, but the tsuka is kind if ax handley only a few cuts messed up the ito. I'd say this is NOT worth the $200.
