Great sword.
The iaito sword has excellent balance.
If you want to buy a good solid sword build by real craftsman , this is the best choise
Thanks Tozando

If you're looking for a longer sword this is an excellent choice. I need a 2.60 shaku blade and in Tozando's current range this limits the choice to either this or a custom iaito. When I started to build a custom iaito to the same specifications at this, I realised that this iaito was very good value. I was concerned about the colour, as red and blue sounded a little garish, but now that I have it, that's not a concern at all. The blue is very dark and the red is almost brown - they're quite subdued colours and as a result it's a very stylish design.
My previous iaito was a dotanuki and I was looking for something lighter this time. While this is still quite a heavy iaito, the balance is superb and as a result it handles like something lighter. Once using this, I saw immediate improvements in my wazas where my technique had been hindered by the weight of my dotanuki.
I'm very pleased with this and at a taiaki it'll stand out from the many black sayas and black tsukas on display!

Optimal Performance |

I am very pleased. This iaito has the weight of a shinken and has excellent balance. It feels solid and well built, and the blade does not waver like other thinner/lighter iaito. The blade is very wide with deep bo-hi, allowing the sword to produce a very audible tachi-kaze. If you are looking for a blade with optimal performance & feel, and would like it to look amazing as well, this is your best option. I wish I had bought this sooner.

Outstanding Sword |

As I read before, pictures are not fair with this sword. Is just awesome!, the sagueo colors are vivid, the sword is far more beautiful than the images on the web. The balance is great, and is not as heavy as I thought! Packaging was excellent, and it took exactly five days to get here from Japan. Tozando kept their promise and shipping was free. Customs price were low and insignificant when I got to see this Iaito! Excellent!!

EXCELENTE PIEZA |

Fué enviado una semana antes de lo esperado. Cuando lo recibí, después de una espera considerable de la aduana brasilera. Venía muy bien embalado. Cuando lo abrí quedé sin palabras. Las fotos en el site no le hacen justicia. Es una espada imponente. La saya es impecable de un rojo muy elegante. La tsuba es grande pero se adapta perfectamente al conjunto. La tsuka ito está muy bien hecha con sus dragones muy bien logrados. La fuchi;kashira es espectacular. Nada en esta espada está suelto. Es una pieza muy sólida y excelentemente balanceada. Me gusta su balance y sus acabados. Por cierto, el sageo es TREMENDAMENTE INTERESANTE. Es bonito, elegante y firme.
