err.. from what I've seen yes, its actually pretty good ( in looks department), but I would'nt do cutting with it, even though it says you can, some Iaido sensai here dont like the paul chen, as its unsafe, the pegs are not very impact absorbant apprently. ( other reviews ppl?) Oh the hamon isnt acid tempered its actually clay( differencial) tempred. Maybe some ppl who do iaido can comment more. I just do kendo
If u want to get a sword as a wall hanger, go get an iaido, they cheaper ( some) , but its not built for cutting, but they look better, plus if u decide to get it,, and later learn eshin ryu or some other iaido, you might be able to use that. ( but again it depends wat school ur learning from, some prefer differnt sori and lengths, so.... )
try
bogubag.com aoi-budo.com , tozando.com they have some nice iaidos, they are others as well ( i wont list them just search for it)
