Thank goodness I ordered mine in time. SBG store had 3 left in stock when I ordered and when mine arrived, there were none left in stock on their site. Truly a fine blade!

I love the fittings on that Kat! I'm in love with japanese swords too and was actually telling my Mrs earlier that they are a work of art.

Backyard cutters usually use pool noodles. EVA foam tubing covers might be even better as the foam is closer to flesh.

Great video. I will research this company for this beautiful sword.

[stevek.]

Awesome video Sensei!
I love samurai swords, the katana along with the matching wakizashi swords too. I'm also into handguns, rifles and shotguns as well.

[Leman.Russ.thLegion]

I have a lone wolf by skyjiro. It's identical but has a red scabbard.

[bridgetdye]

this sword is so pretty in person and it cuts well even for newer cutters. my Sensei and one of the other sudents has this sword both of them came vary tight in the saya. every one that are reday to have a shinken/ have one wants to get one. with vary nice hemon line.

I agree with your passion of sword craft and agreed, modern swords made in China don't get enough credit for how well made most are, have you tried Huawei or Skyjiro, I have reviewed both and I belive in the Sub 1k mark are some of the best katana reproductions out there...great video wish I was near you to join your dojo

[infantyl]

Great video (as always). If you have time and will you could make stream as you do unboxing of swords. it would be great opportunity for Q&A with community

[ajayaayan]

Its really beautiful katana and cool too

[adamwords]

Ha ! I just got mine on the 25th! From our friends at Sword Buyer's Guide. I havent used it for cutting yet, but it is decent shinken for kata. Great Hasuji. I love your sword nerding, and I mean that in a positve way. I don't know which is more fun, shopping for swords, the excitement of receiving them, or having and using them;)

[andrewhinxman]

Hi mr norcross, wud it be possible to show a little bit of any wakizashi techniques or movements, wud be grateful for any advice u have, kind regards

[GGolden]

I wonder if Ron Chen sold the mold for the tosogu or did Ryujin find someone to copy his design?

[ajayaayan]

Sensei can you please make a video about how to use sansetsukon and two swords please

[doncare]

Hey bro, could u do ur top 5 Fav katana and the story behind the katana...👍👍👍

[Rickdoesshotokan]

Awesome sword, need to mmhmm pick me up one

[SithEnthusiast]

I must be color blind cuz the eto wrap looks dark green to me lol

[jonathanhalko]

Hello,
I have been looking at this sword (Ryujin Gray wolf Katana)
Is this sword sharp. Also, can you cut light to middle targets with it and is the sword scabbard tight or loose.
For the most part it's just going to be a display piece. But I would like to have a sword that I can also cut with.
Without the blade failing off the handle.

Thank you, great video,
Wolfs are the best

Im so confused. All the verified real clay tempered hamons i can find are very faint, but the blade is discolored from the line to the edge of the blade. Not a single one of these hamons appear to be legit, looks just like that of 100 swords on ebay and amazon
