lisirenLooks real to me. Whether or not they're good katanas, that I don't know. Not sure how these are made and it's not like real experienced swordsmiths are in abundance these days.
Edit: Nevermind, http://www.sword-buyers-guide.com/japanese-samarai-sword.html
"handles like a crowbar, cut's like a light saber.."
So no, it's really just shaped like a katana.

KailecActually, if you read the guide you posted to a more complete length.
More specifically under cons:
"...is not shaped like a real Katana in the cross section"
So, it's not even really shaped like a Katana. It just has the look of one.

directassaultCross-section authenticity is vitally important to me, the potential sword buyer. Possible dealbreaker. Thank you very much for your insight,

fartAgreed. This just a broad sword, but still made well. I felt aweful looking at the way the sword was abused. Sword is a piece of art, raw beauty which you respect and fear as much as you admire.
