Review: Dojo Pro wakizashi #1 by Ronin Katana

** Specifications ** Overall length: 73 cm (28.75 in) Blade length: 54 cm (21 in) Blade thickness: 7 mm, tapering down to 5.5 mm Point of balance: 9 cm (3.5 in) Weight: 815 g (1.8 lbs) Blade material: 1060 carbon steel Price: 265 USD (as of 18 Sept, 2015) ** Pros / Cons ** Remarkably tight assembly, flawless finish Excellent edge and blade geometry Good value for the money Mediocre edge retention ** Verdict ** Since Japanese swords generally do not interest me much I don't have much to compare it to, but on its own merit this wakizashi seems like a well made reproduction. It's very well fitted and can stand up to abuse. The edge dulled more quickly than I had expected but the blade overall didn't take noticeable damage from use on hard targets. The handling and cutting performance are definitely satisfying. Overall I find this wakizashi quite easy to recommend as a functional sword for cutting practice on water bottles, tatami mats and similar targets. ** Where to get it ** http://roninkatana.com/dojo-pro-wakiz... ******************************************************************************** My favorite online store for buying swords (worldwide shipping): http://ww4.aitsafe.com/go.htm?go=kult...
