Tamahagane Tachi for sale & new katanas on the way !
March 22nd, 2008 | by admin |
It has been a few weeks since you heard something from us but we were extremely busy with some things and there wasn’t much time left to write something down.
But we’re still alive and kicking 
Now we have a great deal to announce and you’re the first to hear about it. Two weeks ago I was on the phone with one of our forges and after lot of talking and negotiating they gave us a little extra because we’re a good client.
You remember the tamahagane tachi we got in a few weeks ago..that on is already sold BUT they did send us 2 new one’s we can offer for 1200 euro/piece. Keep in mind that this is the first time we got an offer like t his and it won’t be repeated within the next few years. As you can see in our shop it’s priced at almost 1900 euro !
So please mail us if you have any interest because once on the site they will go very fast I believe. We only have 2 pieces available here..
Besides this good piece of news we also have some more news about the katana with Japanese fittings, etc. The first samples are ready and will be here very soon.
The first one here is a traditional polished T10 steel katana with Japanese fittings, ito and sageo. The original price will be over 1000 euro but if you’re interested we can offer it for 850 euro.
The second here is a lower end katana but made to cut and we can give a lifetime warranty against breaking (the blade of course). So we’re sure about the quality of this baby here. Keep in mind that chopping trees won’t be included in the warranty …The retail price of these one’s will be around 220 euro (which is already a bargain) .
Anyway…there are still more things on the way and we will keep you up to date of course.
If you have any questions or suggestions, drop me a mail at dave@samurai-sword-shop.com
Take Care,
Dave
PS : Let me know what kind of things you would like to see on the blog..more sword reviews, more technical things or anything else ?

Hi Dave. The tachi looks awesome. We don’t get to see many of these elsewhere…
As for the blog, how about a Konron Forged steel shinken review?
Keep it up!

Hi,
i might be interested in the “first one” katana. Could you tell any more about the katana. Weight/ length etc. Is it a real Japanese made sword? Could you tell anything about the T10 steel? Will there also be Tamahagane katanas produced, like the tachi’s?
P.s. the red laquer saya is beautiful!

Hey,
The first katana can be found here : http://www.samurai-sword-shop.com/tiger-katana-206-prd1.htm
Yet, this one has a different color of ito and wrap. Only the fittings & Ito are made in Japan, the rest is “Chinese”.
Tamahagane katana will be available and there’s more news on the way, just need to find some time to put it all together
Just sign up for our newsletter and you will receive this kind of news before it will be announced on the site
