  1. Mr RR may I call you R? You come to the premiere sword study group asking about a katana which it cannot be because it's too short then you were told that it is a fake not even a good copy and you get upset saying how do you know, we have spent many years learning time and money to tell the difference. I hope your heart is not broken when you find out it is false sword. On this website there is many listed sellers you should search those websites and see what a real sword looks like. Best of luck Stephen
