Q-Will you ship to me?

A-YES! I ship world wide. As of today I have product in 27 countries.  I am sorry I have yet to update this new system with this information. Just ask for a quote and I will respond as fast as I can.

Q-Did straight katana exist?

A- Yes. Chokuto, or Straight sword, were produced in ancient times. This precursor to the classic Japanese Blade is over 24” (60cm) in length and is not curved.

For more information on Katana pick up a copy of The New Generation of Japanese Sword smiths the information that I have presented you with is form page 14

Q-Are your tools historically accurate?

A-No, My tools are based off of Historical tools. There are many factors to this question. Even if I had a historical tool in my hands I would still be unable to say mine are accurate. I use modern steel; I use a modern fuel for my forge not charcoal. I use western hammers not Japanese hammers. And so on.

My tools are built to last! What I am working towards is that people will need to pass down the tools I create. I want them to live a full life. We have tools today that are hundreds of years old. Personally I have a hand drill that was passed from my grandfather to my father to myself. Today in the world I see little for sale that will last 10 years let alone my life time. In short I want tools that will last, are fully functional and have a style all of there own.
