Great product
Quality is beyond expectations use these as gifts to personnel. Easy for laser engraving or presentation as is, truly a beautiful piece.

Worthwhile purchase.
I’ve purchased a few of these and used them in plaques for retiring or PCSing senior Army NCOs and they’ve all been great. Quick purchase to delivery time. Great value for the money. Consistent quality, no two have been recognizably different. All of the individuals they’ve been presented to have loved them. I would definitely recommend this product.

Good Sword, Finish Needs Work
Purchased for one of my kids who enjoys cosplay. The shape and size are perfect, and it seems to be solidly made. From a distance, it looks good. Upon closer inspection, however, it has a rough texture, and the finish looks ragged. I’ll probably have to sand it down and refinish it myself. Still a decent product, but 8 wish they had done a better job of finishing it.

Great Going Away Gift
Laser engraved very nicely. Used for a going away gift. Stain on the hilt was not the greatest of qualities but easily fixed.

Disappointed with the craftsmanship
⭐ 2 out of 5 stars Disappointed with the craftsmanship I was excited to receive this wooden sword, but unfortunately the quality fell short. The handle is not properly glued to the blade—there are visible gaps that make it feel unstable and poorly assembled. On top of that, the tip of the sword arrived chipped and peeling, which really takes away from its appearance and durability. For a handcrafted item, I expected much better attention to detail. Would not recommend unless these issues are addressed.

Not a training sword.
A lot smaller than I had expected. Thought it was going to be the same as a standard gladius, whose handle, guard, and pommel are all minimum the size of a fist or larger. Handle is also a little thin, fits nicely, but also feels like it'd snap under blunt force. Definitely doesn't feel very durable, the blade isn't very thick, wouldn't recommend actually fighting with it; I mean, "made in India" doesn't exactly spark much faith or confidence. 7/10 display piece.
