Tamahagane Steel Katana

Your package includes the katana(s), carefully packed to ensure safe transport. If you selected the option, a certificate of authenticity (+$8 CAD) will also be included. In addition, a Japanese fabric bag worth $25 CAD is offered with every katana purchase. You also have the option to add accessories such as a display stand, cleaning kit, or premium storage box to enhance your collection.

Each katana is crafted only after your order is placed. We never mass-produce or keep pre-made swords in stock. Once your purchase is confirmed, our craftsmen begin forging your katana specifically for you. Every piece is hand-forged following traditional Japanese techniques, ensuring exceptional craftsmanship and strict quality control at every stage.

By avoiding long-term storage, we preserve the integrity of the materials, prevent oxidation caused by prolonged warehousing, and ensure that you receive a freshly forged, authentic, and one-of-a-kind katana. After production, katanas are shipped from China, allowing us to offer an optimal balance between reasonable delivery times and controlled costs.

This katana is forged from Tamahagane steel, a traditional Japanese steel renowned for its purity and the complexity of its production. Each piece is crafted using ancient artisanal techniques, requiring expert skill and significantly more time than standard katanas.

Due to the high level of craftsmanship and attention to detail, the preparation time is longer than usual. Once your order is confirmed, we generally estimate a shipping timeframe of 2 to 3 weeks.

Delivery times depend on several factors, including the selected shipping carrier, potential customs inspections (due to the nature of the product), and the final destination. In most cases, delivery takes between 5 to 15 days after dispatch.

Please note that exceptional circumstances — such as high shipping volumes or unforeseen logistical delays — may impact these timelines. While we do everything possible to ensure fast and efficient delivery, we cannot guarantee an exact arrival date.

Due to the special nature of our katanas, we use shipping methods specifically chosen to ensure a fast and secure delivery, while minimizing the risk of delays at customs. We typically ship via UPS, a trusted and reliable service. If UPS is not available for your region, we work with our secondary partner, SF Express, to ensure your order arrives in the best possible conditions.

Our team takes great care during the shipping process to minimize the risk of customs fees. In the vast majority of cases, customers do not incur any additional charges. We work closely with our logistics partners to ensure each package is prepared and labeled carefully to help avoid unnecessary delays or duties.

That said, in very rare circumstances, customs authorities may apply import fees based on your country’s specific regulations. Should this occur, please note that any such fees are the buyer’s responsibility, as stated in our Disclaimer. Rest assured, we do everything possible to guarantee a smooth, fast, and cost-efficient delivery experience.
