It certainly seems to cut nicely. Do you have any plans to review it?

It's in the reviews section, I just lack the setup to do proper video reviews. That's something I intend to rectify in the coming months.

I was just about to start searching then asking about LK chen, because they look really good on his own videos.
I have been wanting one for a little while, they look like the real kind of deadly. (appropriate for a modern user).
((I don't ever plan to have a sword as a weapon, but I just mean the energy of the machine looks like the right kind of machine to learn to use, if going to be in balance with the machines around us today. I am 100% a hobby cut enthusiast, 0% weapon enthusiast. Yes this means I would happily buy and shoot a gun, they are very fun to shoot, and then I would make exactly 0 plans to ever train to have it ready for a fight.))
Anyway I would love to hear your comments. I feel like LK Chen appears to be a very good value for the money when I look at it, I wonder if you feel that way?? How is the handle?? does it feel capable? It is one of the things that puts me off, because I can't see what it feels like, and it almost looks wrong to me,,, I just can't imagine the feel of it from how it looks. I have much confidence in the sincerity of the smith, and his intent to make a proper equipment, but it's just not what I picture as a strong grip.

If you're just talking from a structural perspective, the grip is solidly made. The grip is pinned both just below the guard and about an inch above the pommel, the latter pin going through the pommel and tang. I have no doubts about it. The only issue I had was with the wrap, but that was easily corrected before I decided to have it customized.
