Customer Experiences

Propride outstanding company and product Propride is in an outstanding company to do business with and I would give them 10 stars if I could. Example: I had a question while installing on a Saturday afternoon my driveway not being level and the instructions requiring a level install service. I Left a message and had a call back within 20 minutes. From Brent the general manager informing me that the trailer just needed to be parallel with The driveway and the truck.I was expecting a call back but no way was I expecting that call to come from Brent. I was able to install the hitch on my 7,500lb travel trailer without incident. The hitch made a huge difference in the towing of the vehicle virtually no sway and a rock stable tow. Almost as if it was a fifth wheel. My tow vehicle is a 2017 Ford Expedition and with the propride 3P hitch installed I was able to evenly distribute the weight over the two Expeditions axles. It took several trips through the weigh station to get my adjustments fine tuned but then I was able to mark them on the torsion bar jacks allowing me to repeat it as needed. No other weight distribution hitch that I know of allows you to fine-tune those adjustments as you can with the propride. While I was making the adjustments, at a truck stop, one of the truckers who was refueling his truck noted that he had never seen a hitch that would allow you to fine-tune the axle weights as you could with the this hitch. He said he'd been towing for 40 years and the importance of evenly distributing the weight over the tow vehicle cannot be overstated and yet so few hitches allow that adjustment. Most weight distribution hitches make a fixed Weight distribution and treat all trailers as if they weighed the same. Again this is one outstanding company and product

The first thing I will say is that when I called with questions about my order A REAL PERSON answered the phone and not some computer press this number or that number recording. I was then transferred to Brent who went above and beyond any expectation I had to take care of me. When he told me he'd call me back…..he did! The details of what my problem was don't really matter. What they DID to ensure a customer was taken care of is what matters. ProPride has earned a customer for life based on just their customer service. If I need something and they sell it then that is where I will buy it from. When it came time to go pickup my brand-new trailer, I took my recently deliver, still in the box, 3P with me so I new I would be safe pulling it home. Several hours after giving the hitch to the dealer they came to me and told me that my hitch wouldn't work, but they had the equalizer hitch there and it would work and they’d sell that to me. I had heard that dealers lack the knowledge about these hitches, but the instruction book is so clear and easy to follow, I thought they would be able to install it with no issues. I was wrong. After lots of talking and texting with Sean Woodruff on a Saturday afternoon/evening and sending him pics I was able to get them to make the proper adjustments and it worked great. Just another example of great customer service from an amazing company on a Saturday evening! Sean made sure we got our trailer and made it home safe. Driving home in the dark and in the rain and with a much larger trailer than I've ever pulled, and it pulled like a dream! Thanks Brent. Thanks Sean. Thanks ProPride. You have proven all the positive reviews about customer service right.

Product Description

The Munetoshi 1075 Competition Hira-Zukuri Katana Sword is a purpose built sword specifically for tatami omote mat cutting. Featuring a custom designed habaki by Jake of the Cutting Mechanics and specially designed blade, this hira-zukuri katana has been tailored to have the ultimate performance in mat cutting capabilities. This sword features a wider and thinner blade for better cutting performance and handling. The 1075 spring steel will endure regular cutting activities and resist bending.

*Please note that all swords can bend under extreme circumstances. Swordnarmory cannot be held liable for improper use of our products.

Designer's Notes: "These series of swords are designed and built with superb handling and cutting ability in mind, which is why I started with designing the habaki. Fractions of an inch or tenths of a millimeter have been taken into account in the dimensions of the habaki to serve as the heart of our competition grade series of swords. The habaki dimensions dictates how the sword handles and where the weight is distributed along the sword. Then the blade is designed according to the specific cutting purpose it will fulfill. How the sword flexes and cuts through a target are set by the dimensions of the katana, such as thickness, width, shinogi-ji width, and edge profile. Overall, I strived to design purpose-built swords that are tailored to the serious cutter, martial artist, or enthusiast."

Detailed Specs of the Competition Hira-Zukuri Katana Sword:

Blade: The blade is made in the hira-zukuri geometry with very tough 1075 spring steel which has a superior heat treatment. This is so that the user does not have to worry so much about the sword bending or taking a set from a bad cut, especially on denser targets. It has a thin edge profile with some ha-niku to help give some strength to the edge without sacrificing overall edge geometry. It has a longer and more pointed kissaki and comes in a mirror polish.

The blade comes very sharp and full tang.

Saya: The saya of the sword is wooden with a black high gloss finish and bull horn koiguchi. The sageo is black cotton tied over a wooden kurigata with golden shitedome. The kurikata is placed the proper distance from the koiguchi to allow the user to easily release the sword from the saya.

Tsuka: The habaki is a Munetoshi custom design from Jake of the Cutting Mechanics. All of the sword fittings are made of brass, with an elegant and user friendly tsuba. The fuchi and kashira are made to be as ergonomic as possible. The tsuka has very tight hinerimaki using black synthetic ito over genuine white samegawa ray skin. The menuki are brass and have a farmer and oxen theme.
