    Hello, I am a newcommer to the collecting/practicing game and I live in Colorado. I would like to buy my first real sword but I wish to support a smaller forge in the US or Japan or anywhere really but China. Can you make a recomendation or two? If not do you know who I can contact for this info. I am looking for a more econimical first buy, I just don’t want to prop up major Chinese industry for personal reasons. Thanks for your time and keep the art alive.

    Without knowing how much you wish to spend on a sword, I don’t know if I can make good recommendation.

    Of course, we first of all would recommend ourselves at Dragonfly Forge, Michael and Gabriel Bell. We do take orders. Michael also has other students that could be possibilities.

    If you would like to contact us directly with more specifics please call or email us.
