Any good quality budget Katana's?

[Eric Isaacson]

A friend of mine is looking for a budget Katana ($150) for her grandson. Does anything exist at this price that is of decent quality?
And is available to purchase online.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Perhaps Hanwei's Raptor series?

The Musashi Bamboo Katana is decent for the price. I have used mine for quite a bit of cutting without trouble. They are under $100

Thanks for the info guys. Any other suggestions?

Kris Cutlery is about the only other brand I can think of near that price range that's any good.

I picked up a 5160 steel tactical katana a while back for around $160 and it seems very well made and sturdy.
