What Our Collectors Say
Independent reviews from verified buyers on Trustpilot
Wonderful folks to buy from
“Large selection to choose from. The katana were signed with Hozon and the blades in a shirasaya. My two katana and Kozuka came packed in a solid wooden crate. Great friendly communication.”
Got a beautiful sword delivered to NYC

What Stands Behind Each Purchase
NBTHK Certification
Most of our blades hold papers from the NBTHK (Society for the Preservation of Japanese Art Swords), the most respected appraisal body in Japan — Hozon, Tokubetsu Hozon or Juyo Token. The certificate ships with your sword.
Legal Export from Japan
Each antique sword is registered with a torokusho (Japanese government registration). We handle the deregistration and official export permit process for every order — your sword leaves Japan legally, with paperwork to prove it.
Insured Worldwide Shipping
Swords are packed in custom wooden crates or reinforced packaging, fully insured and tracked door-to-door. We ship to the US, Europe and beyond.
Secure Payment
Payments are processed by Stripe and Shopify Payments with full buyer protection. We answer every question before you commit — ask us anything about a blade.
Based in Tokyo
We are collectors based in Japan, buying at source. No middlemen, no imported inventory of unknown origin — every listing is photographed and described by us, exactly as it is.
