All questions regarding your shopping experience on the store
Every item available for purchase on our website complies with UK ownership laws.
It’s important to note that carrying a sword in public places is prohibited unless you have a legitimate reason for doing so.
The minimum age requirement for purchasing a sword from us is 18 years.
Specifically, samurai swords and other types of curved swords are permissible, provided they are handcrafted using time-honored techniques. Rest assured, all swords we offer are crafted through these traditional methods, making them fully compliant with UK regulations.
There may be references, such as a BBC article from 2008, suggesting a blanket ban on Samurai Swords in the UK. It’s crucial to understand that this information was accurate at the time but became outdated due to an amendment passed four months later. This amendment allows ownership of swords either made before 1954 or produced at any time via traditional hand-forging techniques. Our collection exclusively includes swords forged by hand in this manner, ensuring their legality within the UK.
For those seeking more comprehensive insights into the current legal framework, or to verify the legality of owning such items, we recommend consulting:
UK Border Control – Offensive Weapons
UK Law – Provisions for Swords Crafted Using Traditional Methods
Further details are also available in the legal section of our website.
