If I could I would give it 10 out of 10. Everything is tight and shiny and mine came very sharp. I love the hand carved wood handle, and overall this piece is very, very aesthetically pleasing. I cut some tatami and it cuts beautifully. And now I’m buying a sword case for it, because it really is that beautiful. The scabbard and belt are perfect as well. The individuals at DSA were a pleasure to work with and I definitely will be using them again. I’m very satisfied with my purchase. Due to it’s limited run I would’ve preferred a COA…, but really, not a big deal. Ty again DSA.

It’s well built, sharp, and beautiful. Great temper to it, and I couldn’t be happier.

Hi Luke,
Thank you for your review. We sharpen our blades with a careful balance between sharpness and functionality. The sword should be sharp enough to pass the paper cutting test, but not too sharp to the point where the edge becomes brittle. The idea is to sharpen it to the point where the motion, speed and angle will cut through and opposing force (ie, opponent) and keeping the edge durable.

In regards to the standard scabbard option, that is correct. The standard scabbard does not come with the interlaced sword belt. You would need to be a sword frog to attach it to the scabbard.

The grip really feels sturdy and swinging it around feels amazing. I have two things i dislike therefore giving a 4 out of 5 star review. First thing is you pay extra for a sharpened blade and its not even really that sharp i thought they would have maybe took a little bit of time to refine the edge on a stone. Secondly the non belt scabbard doesnt have any slits for you to put your own belt through. I would recommend anyone that is thinking about getting this sword or any similar from Darksword Armory to do so though.

The way it feels in the hand is excellent. It is a great cutter and stands up well to strikes. I love the beautiful design of the hilt and pommel and just the entire blade looks stunning. This is a great choice to anyone of Norse blood or for those who simply love swords
