#RONIN KATANA FULL#
I wanted a full refund, and I said that it was not fair to charge a 20% restocking fee for a defective sword, which is $70 on a $350 sword. I regretted sending that email because I really didn't want to keep the sword, I would be embarrassed to hang it or break it out. I reached out to Ronin and told them I would either take a partial refund to keep it at a scratch/dent price, or I would send it back. It was so off that this sword belongs in their scratch and dent sale. This is for taking the sword outside to cut and not marking up the house in transition, but I wouldn't wear it anywhere. I don't expect anything great at this price point as scabbards go, so this is par, but it reinforces a mental note that the 'added value of a scabbard' only applies to quality scabbards. The scabbard was low quality leather: thin, stiff, and unimpressive. The finish on the interior of the circular pommel was not wonderful-it had the same appearance as spray painted concrete, leaving me rather unimpressed. I couldn't tell if the pommel was set off centre, or if I was visually deceived by the leather wrap, but it certainly looked quite off. The seam that others seemed to have a problem with was not an issue for me. The wrap coils are a bit thick, which is aesthetically displeasing up close. Could spot it right away and from anywhere in the room. The guard was visibly crooked to the point of being defective-see for yourself. No attention to the blade will be given here. The blade was fine, but I was immediately drawn to the crookedness of the hilt region. No visible damage I could tell, and it seemed to be efficient enough. It was packaged in a box within a box. The inner box had a few foam bracers, but the inner box itself was bouncing around the larger box with nothing to hold it down. After watching Skallagrim's review and putting out for some feedback in the FB SBG realm, I decided to order Ronin's Euro #2.
I have a swords on order and I needed something to hold me over, something to feed the addiction.
