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.

This is the Rairyū Katana 雷龍 – a meticulously polished Japanese katana forged from T10 steel with traditional clay tempering. Designed for collectors and practitioners alike, it embodies the essence of Japanese sword-making.
The 72 cm blade features a real yokote line and bo-hi groove, burnished with a full 25-stage Japanese-style polish to reveal a vivid hamon temper line. The tsuka is wrapped in genuine rayskin and gray ito, complemented by antique-style brass fittings with dragon motifs.
What sets it apart is the rare full ray skin saya – handcrafted with real rayskin, polished to a gloss finish and reinforced with genuine horn parts. A piece that bridges tradition and performance.
