Very happy with my purchase: Lightweight, good balance and makes a nice tachikaze sound. The iaito features also look great and it comes with a sageo.

This is my first iaito, light, well balanced excellent finish on the saya. i must admit, i was very torn between buying a entry level iaito to start with or one of the more expensive models in the knowledge that i may end up replacing it in a few years. however im happy to say i made the right call, this iaito will serve me well from many years.

Fantastic Iaido blade
My sword arrived yesterday super quick, four working days including the day I placed my order. Customer service was great thanks to Martyn. I trained last night with the Iaito and it handles really well. Its finish and quality for the price is superb. I'm really pleased with it. Thank you.

Great Iaito
I am a kendoaka primarily, the shinai is a representation of the katana. To further my study I needed an iaito to appreciate what kendo is. How to cut, how to hold the shinai (based on the katana), how I can relax to deliver a good cut. Martyn at Nine circles has provided me with an excellent iaito, along with fantastic advice and exceptionally quick service. Iai or kendo I thoroughly recommend this sword, Thank you.
