The O-ren Ishii shirasaya got to me faster than I imagined, the box was not damaged in any way. The sword was a perfect reproduction of the movie sword. A must buy if your a fan of the movie! Will buy from Hanzoswords again.

Excellent Sword. since i was a child I've always wanted one. and this was the first sword i purchased. I am so proud to own this blade. it may not be the "best" to experts, but as far as im concerned this sword will be one of my most cherished items from now on.

I got exactly what the add said and quicker than expected. It came with the stand, sword bag, and cleaning kit. I would not consider the blade razor sharp but it is sharp. I have not used it to cut with or plan to. I bought it for display only. love how solid it feels with no rattling.

Just opened my sword I received it yesterday and I couldn't wait to get home from work to open it , this baby is a beautiful work of art, I didn't expect it to be this amazing it was worth it and for this price couldn't beat that would've paid more if I had to but thank you for this amazing sword and for the greatest price to have such a beauty displayed along with the rest of my baby's.....

The quality of this blade is fantastic, and the design is accurate to that in the film. And to top it all off, it is ridiculously cheap considering the quality of the blade.

I was stunned by this brilliant item - really solid and well made, and it arrived super-fast too. Couldn't be happier!

The sword looks awesome! Feels great and is very sharp. Looks like it would be a great cutting sword, But it will just be used for show on my mantle. Looks like an accurate copy of the movie sword.

When first opening it notice how sharp it is. After trying it out you really know its a good buy. Now I just use it for display and its great.

The Oren Ishii is beautifully inlaid with cherry blossom and nicely sharp. It shows great craftmanship.

At first I was sceptical to purchase this sword, due to the extremely low price. I am extremely glad that I decided to purchase the sword. I am even more happier that I went through this business. Amazing customer service, and extremely fast shipping!

I've always loved O-Ren's katana and this replica doesn't disappoint. The cherry blossoms and love hearts on the handle are very well done and the whole thing looks so sleek and elegant. To top it off, it's dirt cheap and the delivery was damn quick! Highly recommend it!

This is just an awesome replica from the movie. Looks great and handles well. Definitely worth the investment.

I just got my very own ORen Ishii sword today and it's beautiful. ..gorgeous. ...so freaking awesome and cool...I'm a huge sword and movie fanatic. ..Lucy lu was awesome in kill bill and I fell in love with her sword...This sword from hanzoswords.com is a perfect replica!!! The sword feels awesome in my hands beautiful details down to the snowflakes on the handle!!! Just like the one from the movie. ..I highly recommend any kill bill or sword fan/collector to buy this immediately! !! Once again thank you hanzoswords.com! !!

When I got this sword it was very sharp it had high quality finish when I went to cut stuff with it it did an amazing job

I bought a version, of this movie sword years ago and it was NOT this one-its THE ONE!Finally, i got the right one from the movie..everything is right...this the one that belongs with her freckles in the movie. :) Thank you Hanzo Swords!

Beautiful and feels amazing in my hands, the blade is obviously full tang and extremely sharp. This is a must have for any kill bill fan. Hanzo swords was quick with email replies, good business.

The O ren ishii sword is very nice out of box scabbard is a bit hard to pull out on first try but after a week of messing with it... It eventually comes out with relative ease but won't just slide out so that's good. Sharp sharp sharp be careful I get bottles any kind of bottle and it will cut it like knife through butter. Only downside but not even a big deal is 2 little dings in the blade but other than that its sharp its nice and I would recommend it for use or for show.

Bought the O Ren Ishii sword for my daughters birthday present, and she loves it. Showed up a few days after ordering it and it is a big piece of metal. It feels very substantial compared to other swords in the price range. Great buy for the price and free shipping.

For the price, this is a great buy. The appearance (especially sheathed) is quite beautiful with its cherry blossom inlays. The sword has a decent enough sori with a POB at 5" (I am very surprised to see this). Comes sharp (at least visually), it's quite substantial in hands, and does not feel like a toy sword at all. I am very satisfied with the purchase except for a relatively slow shipping (in my case).

Think this was one of the best Christmas presents my son has received. At least that's what he told me several times:) Beautiful sword.

Right out of the box she burst out crying and yelled "Best Christmas EVER!!!!!!" She hasn't put it down.its sharp, amazing quality and doesn't disappoint a true kill bill fan. Thanks kev for the amazing job I'm actually considering getting one right now

This sword was a Christmas present for my girlfriend who loves the look of shirasayas, especially O-Ren's, and has been wanting a practical katana for a while now. As a display piece the blade is clean and sharp, with a nice hamon. The wood has a deep lacquered finish. The sakura petals are raised inlays that are under the lacquer, not like the cheap stickers you find on lower quality replicas. The etched symbol on the habaki is also quite clean. The only negatives I've found is that there are some minor dents on the wood in the lower portion of the saya and the ends of the wood where the tsuka and saya meet, the mouth of the saya, are not pained black. I have not done any outdoor test cutting as it is a gift, however the blade cut cleanly through a piece of paper with the out-of-box edge. I am seriously considering ordering one for my own collection.

The sword certainly seems sharp and sturdy enough to do some cutting if that's what you're after. However, if like me, this is intended to be mainly decorative then you have found a great deal. The sword looks great. The only negative thing I could say is that the Habaki needs a little polishing but that's not a big deal. All in all, a good purchase. Can't beat the price.

I ordered this sword for a friend who loves shirasayas. She absolutely adores it and I to fancy the sword. I love the blade and handle especially.

As president of the international sword interest and tameshigiri group United Backyard Cutters, I have had the opportunity to test cut with many different swords. I was really quite surprised at how well this economical shirasaya cleanly cut through mats and bottles. It is sturdy and looks great displayed with my other Kill Bill collectibles.

This Shirasaya... is since one week in my posession& i would'nt let it go nomore! HANZO has great deals& lives up to my expectations, great fit, sharp& underpriced if you ask me...Anybody with this oren-replica will be satisfied!!!

I just got the katana in and I love it! I'm very happy with the quality of it and it is just like what the description says. Very sharp, amazing quality, and awesome craftsmanship. Overall, a very good buy. :)

i took deliery today of the o ren ishi i and i must say i,m ery pleased with it.it feels quite substantial in the hand and feels like a much more expensie sword the only downside i will say against it is the black gloss paint isn,t perfect but its not bad enough for me to warrent changing it and for the price its an absolute bargain i will definatly be ordering the bill and bride and budd swords to complete the collection thanks hanzo.

Very nice sword! Real sharp. Good quality. Look forward to future purchases.

Beautiful replica of O-Ren Ishii's KILL BILL sword! Absolutely impressed by the craftmanship! Finish with snowflakes on saya looks great. Glad to have this in my collection!

This sword is absolutely beautiful, actually better than I expected. I'm overly pleased by it. :) It preforms very well, and the blade is wonderful.

The katana was a birthday gift to my daughter who is overjoyed to have a feminine katana that performs well. The finish is superb and the blade holds an edge well.

LOVE THIS! The over all look is totally dead on with O-ren's in the film, not to mention it's weighty-ness! I just felt so overempowered when I held it that I wanted to slash some yakuza boss who doesn't like me... j/k ;P Thanks so much guys, VERY satisfied customer here!

Just got this sword a few days ago, it's awesome! It's my very first sword, and it's a very fine blade.

This Katana is the closest you will ever get to the O-Ren Ishii Hero Katana movie prop from Kill Bill,I am a very picky collector and huge fan of Kill Bill and this sword is Identical to the real one in every aspect ,right down to the hand forged blade.You will not be disappointed!.If you have the other Katana's from the film...you need this sword!......

I bought this as a gift for my girlfriend and once I received it I was amazed on how cool this sword is. And of course she loved it more. Thanks HS.

Let me start by saying that I am a huge fan of Kill Bill. When I saw the sword in the movie I fell in love with it and wanted it. I searched all over the web and no one had a replica. One day I came across the Hanzo website and I was blown away with the sword. I just had to have it. I just got it today and I love it. It is not an exact replica of the sword but it is the closest you will find on the web. I am just starting my sword collection and I am very proud to have this sword as my first.

It`s perfect. Thank You
