Great Iaito July 15, 2010
Reviewer: Marshall from Sanford, FL United States  
I received the Iaito on time and I am very pleased with the workmanship.  Beautiful Iaito and well balanced.  You can see the detail and care that was put into creating it...
The customer service was excellent and they went out of their way to  give me the colors I wanted when it wasn't offered.  Thank you Yasumasa san for the excellent customer service and guidance in my customization of this Iaito.

beautiful March 3, 2010
Reviewer: Carlier Fanny from Beuvry la Foret, Nord France  
I received my Higo Koshirae standard in 3/03/2010, it took 4 weeks.
I was impressed by the quality of the sword, for me, my new iaito is my soul.
The tsuka is brown (cotton) and the saya is chaishime and the tsuba is "Hyotan" (butterfly).
This iaito is not Heavy and it's very exiting to practice iaido with this sword.
Hight quality, best price, I recommend Tozando for all people who want to buy a japanese sword, or other hight quality japanese item!

Thanks to Tozando!

sorry for my bad english ^^

Very Good Iaito and Services January 8, 2010
Reviewer: AC from HK, HK Hong Kong  
It arrived a bit early than I expect.
The iaito looks grate, I'm quite delighted.  It has good balance and fitting.  A great stuff for iaido practice or collection.

The most impress me is the services provided by Mr Yoshihito Nonoguchi, I'd receive valuable comment and assistant fm him.

Well made, great balance December 11, 2009
Reviewer: Peter from Maryland, United States  
Very happy with my first iaito! It took about a month to show up but it was worht the wait.  Beautifully put together, impeccable attention to detail and fit of all parts. Even my 2.55 shaku long version feels light and well balanced. Sensei also said it felt very good, so it is not just my dazzled beginner's eyes ... My compadres were all impressed by the black handle (ray skin?) wrapped with dark blue and a matching cotton sageo.
