It’s truly a beautiful weapon. I am looking forward to seeing more creations like this one from you guys. The detail is perfect all over the sword. Keep up the astonishing art of your weaponry.

Hi Frank,

No plans to stock them at this point but we can alwsays send them straight from the forge to you (or from here). In usd that would be around $475.

Talk to you,
Dave

[...] few weeks back we received the first monosteel katana sample from the Zhui Feng forge and last week the folded piece came in. Not necessary to say I was happy [...]

Thxs for the feedback guys ! I agree with the ‘matching theme’ thing..It just had to go a little bit too fast and there was no time left to make a matching f&k but it will defenitely come

Hi guys. All in all the Katana looks great (I am sure it handles well also) But the Iconography of crashing ocean waves on the Kashira really does not fit with a Dragonfly and reed theme of the tsuba. Maybe create a specific Koshira to match the Tsuba and visa versa. Keep it up and I look forward to seeing how this develops.

Hi Daveke,

I already have sent you comments about this project.
I also wanted to add that I spend the afternoon thinking about a suitable name for it.
I kind of found one, it has to do with the tiny Salamander Menuki. Because a very well known species is part of the natural heritage of Japan. If you would like to know what I came up with… you know my mail adress:)

Best of luck, I really like it.

Hi Dave, Just a short reply on the new katana: I like the blade wich has a nice hamon and overall the sword looks sweet. The fittings looks nice by themself, although they don’t really match with eachother…I think it would be better if they have a own theme.

Keep it up and good luck with the Zhui Feng forge!
