I love it November 12, 2009
Reviewer: Fabio Ottaviani from Rome, Lazio Italy  
I've been waiting for 5 week but, finally, I have it in my hands. This beautiful sword is very well made, I love its simplicity. It's not a light sword, but for me is not a problem. I like the way it cuts. I'm totally satisfied about this sword.

First Iaito - Perfect August 31, 2009
Reviewer: Devin McKernan from New Jersey, United States  
I've been studying iaido and kendo for approximately 4 months at this point, before finally being encouraged to purchase an iaito by my sensei. A sword collector himself, he recommended I start at Tozando. Admittedly, I'd been scouring the internet and agonizing over the decision for weeks before finally committing. I have to say, I am not disappointed. In fact, I am extremely pleased.

I ordered a 2.5 shaku version of this iaito with a navy blue cotton tsuka and sageo. The blade and construction are of great quality and the simplicity of the stone-themed fixtures makes for a truly elegant, classy piece. A lot is made of elaborate, fanciful fixtures, but if you have a taste for traditional Japanese minimalism, this one's for you.

A Piece Of Art July 28, 2009
Reviewer: Marco from Milano, Italy  
I received the Iaito today. Is a really piece of Art, all parts are made with really good manufacture quality. Its weight and balance are perfect. I love this Iaito.

A really thanks to Tozando specially to Susan Kim, for support me to import the Iaito in my country ( it was not a simply thing ).

I would recommend Tozando and this particular Iaito to anyone without any reservations.  If I could give it 10 stars I would.
