Pricing:
Pricing will vary on each blade, as every blade is hand forged from a piece of cold steel, into a one of a kind blade, and piece of art work.
Japanese Style Blades:
All Japanese Style Blades will be traditionally heat treated (clay coated) to produce a Hamon and will have a standard finish of around 220 grit.
Japanese Style Tantos:
Hira Zukuri Style Tantos:
Shobu Zukuri Style Tantos:
Osoraku Style Tantos:
Japanese Style Wakizashi and Katana: On hold until further notice
Hira Zukuri Style Wakizashi and Katana:
Shobu Zukuri Style Wakizashi and Katana:
Shinogi Zukuri Style Wakizashi and Katana:
Other Style Blades:
Will include: drop point, clip point, and some of my own variations. I will do standard heat treating and clay coating depending on my mood. I will be making few Railroad Spike Knives now, but if you are interested in one, let me know and my apprentice or maybe I will make one for you (I will still do the heat treating).
Polishing Prices:
All polishes will be done with modern abrasives. You can see what my polish looks like on my
"My Work" page. Right now there is one blade that shows the polish (it looks better in real life than what the picture shows).
Handle Prices:
Each knife handle will be different depending on what materials are used. ie: guards, butt caps, wood, etc.
Miscellanous:
Other Items that will hopefully be coming later. ie: mekume, shira saya mounts to full fitted mountings (copper habaki, tsuba, menuki, seppa, fuchi, and kashira, for Japanese style blades).
