Communication with the seller and delivery speed were great, The article itself is visually exactly as illustrated, beautifully finished, etc, etc. The weapon fits comfortably in your hand and works great for after training with bokken or like the feel of a real gun to get. The only drawback is that is dirt in the Saya which so much had their own repertoire the gun each time anew to the blade sticks, but I think that can be clean as soon as I find a pig, which is long enough to clean out the whole saya. All in all a wonderful article
