So, I’ve had a Katana for a few months now. Here are my thoughts:
I like it, a lot actually!
It is powerful, and stable. It was very snaggy at first, but now that the response has broken in it responds perfectly. It’s great at regens!
It can handle pretty much everything I can throw at it.
There’s just something about the whole concept/ color and shape that just works. It’s freaking sweet!
9.5 out of 10 (only because i’m partial to organics. 
)

Where did you get the ‘68 grams’ spec?
I’ve never weighed an OG Katana that topped 66.6 grams.
I fully understand that the discrepancy is only 1.4 grams.
But why suggest it weighs more than it actually does?
Just curious?

I deleted it, it was showing up twice in two different places. I’m new and never intended to do that. In my original post, it was corrected by someone else with an edit attached to it and us talking. I deleted this one. Again, that was actually my first post I’m still learning. I’m sorry. We also came up with 66.3 and online shows 66.4 and 66.3 and then you showing 66.6

Posting the image showing the gram weight was not to suggest I was right and you were wrong. I posted that image because that’s the only katana that I have and that’s how much it weighs. I have never touched another katana either the first version or the second version. The one in the image is one that I got when I took over Jeff Atwood‘s collection. I got over 500 yo-yos and that katana just happened to be one of them.
For all, I know every Katana may not be the exact same weight? I don’t even have two to compare.
This isn’t an I’m right you’re wrong forum. This is an information sharing forum.
We all take turns learning stuff from each other. Hopefully, down the line if we share enough information, we’ll all be geniuses, lol.
Knowledge is power.

Thank you, I don’t mind being corrected, I’m so thankful this is the nicest community I’ve ever been within. I only said the other specs because I didn’t want you to see that after and get mad at me, thinking I was playing games. Since you know the forum, let’s say, I had asked you what your favorite yoyo was right now? Would that be appropriate or would the post be removed and it’s kind of like stick to the topic dude. Any advice I would appreciate. 
On this forum, you can ask just about anything you’re related. What Andre… The guy that runs and owns the board doesn’t care for is if people talk about other sites or post links to other sites.
For example, the guy says oh I really like his yo-yo but they don’t sell it here. They sell it at yo-yo tricks or you can only buy it on Amazon or eBay or whatever. I know then you post an image of it with the name of the site somewhere in the background. Or you copy and paste the link and say this is what IFor example, the guy says oh I really like his yo-yo but they don’t sell it here. They sell it at yo-yo tricks or you can only buy it on Amazon or eBay or whatever. And then you post an image of it with the name of the site somewhere in the background. Or you copy and paste the link and say this is what I’m talking about and it directs you to the competitors yo-yo board. Stuff like that.
There are some visitors to this forum that deliberately appear and want to talk about their friend site. He sells really cool yo-yos but always has better prices and such.
And then you can even ask things that aren’t yoyo related. If you click on a certain categories, there’s one called non-yo-yo related discussion or something like that? So you can talk about fingerboards or rollerblades hula hoops… Just about whatever you want.
There are a couple individuals that visit the forum that won’t like whatever you say if they don’t recognize your screen name already. But don’t worry about them. They just don’t have anything to do but try to intimidate other people. Most of the people on this forum are pretty easy-going in are smart enough to realize that we all take turns learning from each other and there’s nothing wrong with that since from what I’ve heard knowledge is power, lol
So by all means, don’t hesitate to ask a question like what’s your favorite yo-yo out of approximately how many yo-yos you owe? Because if you just say what’s your favorite yo-yo… The person that responds might only have two yo-yos, ha ha ha.
You can say what’s your favorite yo-yo right now? And you can add if you have more than several yo-yos what are your top couple yo-yos if you can’t decide on exactly which one is the very best… Which are the two or three you reach for the most
Ask away… Most questions are OK and there’s plenty of answers waiting just for you.
See you on the forum.

Wow, thank you so much that was so concise and I really appreciate it. Thank you for taking the time to type all that, too, I wish I could put my thoughts together that well. Hope you are having a good 4th of July, see you around on the forum kind sir! I know who Andre is he was a little bit before my time, but I know how revered he is, I always buy yoyos from this site as my go-to, their site is laid out perfectly.
