We get it — “free shipping” feels good.
But that’s behavioral psychology at work.
It tricks your brain into thinking you’re saving,
when really, you're just paying in another way.
We don’t play that game.
No fake “free shipping,” no inflated prices, no marketing mind tricks.
Just honest blades, honest pricing.
Maybe it feels unfamiliar — maybe even uncomfortable.
But we believe trust is built on truth, not tactics.



The Fierce Tiger Katana, forged from 1095 steel, embodies the spirit of the samurai with its rugged yet refined beauty. The blade, clay tempered and hand-ground using Japanese-style ash techniques, showcases a distinctive tumultuous pattern. The pure copper guard with antique gold carvings and the green pear ground lacquer scabbard reflect exquisite craftsmanship, making it ideal for collectors, display, or practical use.
