Tsuba Samurai
Posted in Antiques on 10/15/2008 07:07 pm by adminWhere can I have a Samurai Sword Set Custom Forged?
I want to have a Samurai sword set custom forged,
I want to be able to customize the type of sword, the color of the tsuka and sheath and the style of the tsuba and also have something engraved on the blade.
It will probably be very specific, I've searched online for places that do custom swords but they are not as specific as I'd like.
The most important feature will be the engraving on the blade.
Can anyone give me information where I can get this done?
A lot of times the people that forge blades (that have websites) don't do any tsuka work. I am guessing you don't have at least $2000 to lay down on a blade either. Getting a custom japanese sword made is terribly expensive. Rick Barrett makes some of the most beautiful blades in the US and his site is at http://www.barrettcustomknives.com/ . The engraving would have to be done by the maker and should not be done afterwards by someone else. That's going to be a tough one.
For the tsuka, if you are willing to do it yourself, Fred Lohman has a wonderful site with a wide variety of supplies. His site is at: http://www.japanese-swords.com/
Good luck
