SAFETY

SAFE WEAPON HANDLING IS YOUR PERSONAL RESPONSIBILITY

EDGED WEAPONS CAN CAUSE SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH IF NOT HANDLE PROPERLY.  

Safety MUST ALWAYS be the prime consideration of anyone who handles dangerous weapons. Always handle your weapon with full concentration towards safety,  and with respect.  Make sure all bystanders are a safe distance away from you and the maximum extended reach or your weapon when the blade is unsheathed. 


BE VERY CAREFUL WHEN YOU FIRST RECEIVE YOUR SWORD

ALWAYS HOLD THE SWORD IN SCABBARD WITH HILT FACING UP AND UNSHEATHE YOUR SWORD CAREFULLY WITH HILT FACING UP AND BLADE FACING AWAY FROM YOU.  

Due to differences in humidity (especially in winter months) between Longquan and the final designation, the scabbard might not maintain the same factory tight fit.  Gravity will pull the sword out of the scabbard if you hold the scabbard with the sword hilt facing down, causing injury to yourself and others. You can always adjust the scabbard tightness after giving the scabbard time to settle to your local condition.

expeditious shipping and USA shipping DISCOUNTS

While we craft each sword by hand, we usually have a number of sharp version of our swords near completion or in stock. So for most sword orders, we expeditiously ship your swords in a couple of days. 


Blunt version however, will take a week or so.  For swords that we recently introduce, the first batch might take a few weeks upon order to ship.  


We have negotiated with our carrier a discount for our USA customers which we will process as a refund off the international shipping cost.


SF Express has just announced an increase in US shipping charges, however,  we still be able to offer a decent discount for our US customers .


For orders WITHOUT added on, $70 shipping for single hand swords and $110 for long double handed swords.  


Our US customer will get a $20 refund off the $90 single hand international shipping charge and $40 refund off the $150 international shipping charge.


For orders WITH add-on items, such as Dragon Sparrow and/or sparring swords, the discount does not applied due to the added weight of the add-on items, but in total an excellent deal for an add-on item to ship at half the shipping cost.


We are working very hard to find ways to lower shipping charges for other countries as well.


Since our website can only support one flat shipping charge, we will keep the same flat rate for your checkout, once the order goes through, we will refund the difference to you.

ORDER and SHIPPING

COVID-19 impact on worldwide shipping


Due to the current pandemic, our default carrier EMS China that use passenger flights for cargo, stop their service for most countries.   


To deliver our swords to you, we have to rely on companies like UPS, DHL and SF-Express who have their own cargo fleet.  The shipping charges of these carriers are higher.  So we have no choice but to adapt to their pricing during this period.   Once EMS is available for us again, we will restore our regular shipping charges.


For USA, Canada, EU and Australia via SF-Express, UPS or DHL 

Single hand lighter sword    

1.5  - 2 kg    $90

Double hand sword and Song Dao 

2.5 - 3 kg    $150
