I voted for United Cutlery coz i love fantasy swords and Kit rae designs.
Marto and Hanwei are the best brands in this industry.
I can personally recommend Paul Chen swords (Hanwei).
My experience:
Kit Rae has the best design, Thaitsuki Nihonto crafts the best combat katanas in the world. I was a huge sci fi fan so i bought Highlander katana from Marto years ago. I am still happy with the sword.
PS: I cannot recommend cheap MC swords.

If we are not speaking about a factory style production, my bet would be on Daniel Watson.
I know that they are quite expensive compared with the others, but you would have a great sword made with one of the strongest steel available out there… I’ve discovered them after I saw the episode of Mythbusters where a katana was supposed to cut through a barrel Browning 30 cal. machinegun… the Angelswords blade was the only one to do that… not only that but it gave a double cut.
Definitely Hanwei and Marto from the list above.
I have 4 hanwei swords in my collection. I am happy with every blade.
United cutlery is my pick.
I think the hanwei Paul Chen swords are definitely the best.
United cutlery is the best coz i am fantasy fan.
United Cutlery has a great fantasy design. Their swords are true collectible pieces and excellent movie replicas. The only problem is yoou cannot seriously use these swords for a real fight.
Hanwei crafts affordable and very sharp and quality swords, Marto produces probably nicest swords.
Musashi is a very affordable sword maker but their swords are quality. Paul chen is the most famous sword maker.
I vote for United Cutlery. Because of Gil Hibben and Kit Rea were designers for them
Paul Chen-Hanwei.
Hanwei and Musashi produce the best Japanese swords, Marto and Valiant armoury create the best middle-age swords and stuff.
In all yes Marto and Hanwei are the best there is but I voted for cold steel because they possesses the one thing not all sword makers have, and that’s durability, I’ve kept a sword that roughly 8 years old from cold steel and it still looks brand new.
Howard Clark!
Marto is the best
