| Pierre,
a Western Swordsmith in Japan : Ask your question
!
Through a couple of friends, I was able to get
in touch with Pierre and was very , very excited
about that. To keep things very short, Pierre
is a “Western guy” who traveled for
the first time to Japan in 2002 and was amazed
by the fact that there were still real traditional
swordsmiths living and working in Japan.
[Video] Bushido & Tamahagane Katana Deals
As promised in our last newsletter, I picked up
the camera and the Bushido & Tamahagane Katana
so here you go…. The Bushido came back after
a ‘trip’ to Poland where it was damaged
during the transport (doesn’t happen very
often but once in a while ) so we replaced it
and does offer it now for 650 euro. The saya has
some damage on the toppart and there are some
scratches in the blade’s etching.

our little samurai sword shop, we have a lot of
things to deal with. Testing & improving katanas,
searching for new samurai swords, dealing with
manufacturers and answering weird emails.

What's New in our Samurai
Swords Shop ?
Cheap
functional katana
If you would like to do
heavy cutting (bamboo,etc) we do recommend the katana
without hi. The tsuka is double pinned and does have a
very tight wrap , which is imported Japanese cotton by
the way ! If you’re looking for a nice entry level
katana or you don’t want to use your expensive shinken
for cutting exercises, this sword is one you can add to
your “wane have” list |
Cheap
& Quality 9260 steel shinken for tameshigiri
Finally they’re available,
the new 9260 steel shinken. If you are doing tameshigiri
exercises on a regular base at your dojo (or at your home)
Cutting goza, multiple rolls of Tatami omote, bamboo and
other medium hard targets are no problem at all for this
sword. |
Paul
Chen Praying Mantis Katana
This
Shobu Zukuri style katana is another new creation of the
smiths at the Hanwei Forge.
the style of blade that is used for this Praying Mantis
sword is the shobu-zukuri style. This type of style has
no abrupt change at the end of the sword and is in fact
more graceful. |
Cheap
battle Ready Katana
As you could read in some
of our blog posts, we found a new and very capable forge
during our last trip to China. After a lot of tweaking,
we finally got the first samples in the house and man
they rock ! |

Forging process of a Japanese Sword
Through the histroy of the samurai, the forging process
used in the creation of authentic Japanese swords is

much of the work involved remains very similar to the
