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 big discount for our USA customers. For orders placed after August 2020, $60 shipping for single hand swords and $90 for long double handed swords. 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
