This is my first and current Iaito for my Iaido classes. I am a beginning Iaidoka of Muso Jikiden Eishin Ryuu, and I approve of this sword (as does my Sensei), though it is not without flaws.
The piece in the video is approximately the same as the sword I use (it is roughly 4 feet to my left, slightly behind me). It's had its problems, like loose habaki, loose ito wrap and loose saya fit (all fixed by me with a bit of time and skill).

For the price, it is a good piece.
