I purchased two pieces of Silk Sageo, Shigeuchi Weaving, thick type, and I am very satisfied with the quality. One is black and the other is purple. Initially, it seemed very stiff and difficult to handle, but over time it started to become flexible enough. Being thick, it was a bit hard to pass through the kurigata on the first katana. I wasn't paying attention when I placed the order, and didn’t notice that this sageo model doesn’t have tassels at the end. At first, I found it strange, but now it doesn’t bother me anymore. After almost a month of use, I consider both sageo to be high-quality products. The delivery was extraordinarily fast, and the communication with the SeidoShop team was efficient. I don’t regret buying them from SeidoShop.
