This is an awsome replica and looks beautiful. the mirrored finish looks great, the size is a tad small but who cares its awsome. the display stand is sweet and holds the sword rather well and the sturdiness of the sword feels real good. granted its not going to take blow to a tree trunk or anything but it is a REPLICA and is for display. if you are swinging this thing arond then man ou do not need it.

i am very happy with the item that i have purchaced. the quality of it is very good. there is only one thing that kind of dissapoints me is that the blade moves just a small amoung, otherwise it was a very good buy. i would and probably will do buisness with them again. thank you.

you guys are being far to critical with this sword its great, incredibly sturdy (i have hit it against a tree it's fine...) i use it in my movies and it holds up great.

If you're a fanboy and you ABSOLUTELY LOVE Final Fantasy, of course, you are going to NEED the Buster sword. For the price it's not a bad deal, but don't expect much more than a huge butter knife. I know it's cheap but I wouldn't mind paying a little more to get something of a little higher quality.

This Buster Sword replica is awsome. The blade is wide and sturdy. Im not sure about the amount of tang this thing has but it is very well built. The handle is curved a little instead of the flat handle that the game's sword had, but this is an awsome sword and I would recommend it to fans of FF7 and sword collectors.

Admittedly I only need this as a halloween prop, but I was quite disappointed when it came in the mail today. The blade was bent quite a bit. Luckily the metal is so mild that I was able to bend it back close to straight with just my hands and my knee. It was also bent where the hand gaurd meets the blade. Again, cheap metal, easy to bend beck. The hand gaurd itself looks really nice but it pivots a few degrees in either direction when you put just a little bit of weight against it. The handle rotates around its axis with about five pounds of force, which doesn't really affect the use of the sword for display or for prop, but it's still annoying. There is also about a square inch of dried glue on the top of the handle. Looks like they tried to stop the handle from spinning by dripping super glue in the cracks between the handle and handgaurd. Not very effective.

The display stand was broken when I pulled it out of the box. I don't care much as I wasn't going to use it anyway. Just another downside to the purchase as a whole. I'm sure that if I wanted to go through the hassle of sending it back they would replace it. Just not something I care enough to do.

Lastly, the sheath isn't quite functional. The sword goes in about 85% of the way and requires a good amount of force to get it all the way in from there. After I forced it all the way in, I found it incredibly difficult to get the sword back out without seriously damaging the cheap material. I have since stabbed the sword in all the way and worked it out dozens of times. It's getting a bit better but nowhere near the point where the sword can be pulled out with one hand.

Bottom line, it's heavy, it's big, and it looks really awesome, but the craftsmanship and materials used are absolute garbage. If it wasn't just here to hang on my hip for one night and toss on the wall the next, I probably would have sprung for the expensive battle ready version. You get what you pay for with this one.

i just got this sword and its well very well made for display purposes only....but if u want one that you can play around with...well i recomend spendin' a bit more $$$ and get the full tag battle ready version of this sword.....i would highly recomend this sword if your a final fantasy fan and need some display space to cover with because this sword will get the job done.

i should know more than James Cope due to my 11 sword collection but this sword does look flimsy due to its immense blade size compared to the handle and the fact that its only stainless steel turns me away but anything made to look like something from Final Fantasy or Kingdom Hearts for that matter; for me; is bought

For those thinking of buying this sword just let me tell you this is for decoration only not fighting, you can swing it but not hard, thats the fisrt thing i did when i got it and the handle bent, this sword is a good replica but "ONLY FOR DISPLAY".

Well the worse part is the sword is about 1-½ feet to short and about 4 inches not wide enough. I know it can't be all the way to Cloud's sword, but I still would have loved it if was. However, they do say the size above so it's not like I did not expect this. The only other thing is they have " Made in Pakistan, " printed right on one side of the blade. It makes it so you can only display it one way. I don't know why they did not put it on the handle or someplace else other then right in the center of the blade. All in all it's cool for fans to have, but a little disappointing at the same time. However, it's the cheapest version of the sword I've seen. So if you've got some spare cash and want to impress your friends, I'd still going to say pick it up.
