The wood of the saya and tsuka is beautiful and holds the blade very securely. Some areas of the koiguchi do stand a little proud but not visibly - it has to be felt. The join itself is almost invisible. You have to give a good push to completely seat the blade and firm tug to draw it. I just read in the questions that the tsuka is not removable - I hope that's not true as I was planning on putting a traditional tsuka on but haven't tried taking it off yet.
The blade came sharp but not shaving sharp and still isn't even after stropping but slash at something and it goes through effortlessly. Overall, it's a very good value for an outstanding, if not perfect, tanto. I think I'll keep it.😊
