Cheness provides a very strong forged blade surrounded by average fittings. Most knowledgable folks state that, in iaito, the blade is the least important component. The tsuka, wrap and fittings are all much more important for a secure, lasting training weapon. The rest of...

No, they're preferred for their history and rarity. Think antique wine. Yes, it costs tens of thousands of dollars but you'd be a fool if you thought it would actually still be drinkable 400 years after it was made.
As for where...

Bummer Brad! I've had a couple of guys get Minosaka iaito from Tozando that were decently put together for the price. While it's not unusual to have tsuba and seppa that are not peened to fit, I've never run across something as bad as you describe from any of the Japanese manufacturers. The worst I've come across was a wrong size saya from Nishijin, (it was actually about 1/2 inch too short!) but...

I'm not quite sure what you mean by paper... If i'm not misstaken the anatomy of a tsuka is: wood then on both sides a strip of same (rayskin real or imitation) and then the ito wrapping with a menuki underneath on both sides. Where is the paper showing exactly? Picture perhaps?

A new pair of Christian Louboutins, a boyfriend lol, and a couple of certificates that say Shodan on them.
Where do you hunt for your shinken?

I know several people who use or have used one of those, and I've heard only positive comments. Good beginner swords with a good feel, decent fittings, worth their price. Stock items so less choises but faster delivery. You can't take one to Japan, though, but that probably isn't such a big deal if you're a beginner.
Oh yeah, better ask your sensei too.

I always figured a dirty tsuka was like a badge of honor. Especially when it turns that nice blueish color from your kote.
