Sword Web Sites

Richard Stein's Japanese Sword Guide - The Japanese Sword Index
Dr. Stein's site is the most respected spot on the web for Japanese sword related information.

ikkyudo - Cary Condell offers a diverse selection of fine Asian works of art, designed to appeal to the discerning collector at any level. I've had the honor of photographing most of the Japanese swords displayed on his site, and I created his logo and original site design.

Barrett Custom Knives - Rick Barrett designs and forges unique pattern welded blades for custom knives, daggers, historic European swords, Japanese katana, fantasy weapons and everything in between. He has trusted me to photograph some of his finest Japanese style swords.

Namahage Sword - I have had the pleasure to photograph some of Anthony DiCristofano blades. He is one of the great American bladesmiths making tanto, wakizashi and katana swords. His work is currently on display with the Masters of Fire International Contemporary Bladesmiths Exhibition at the Macao Museum of Art. I am flattered that the museum used my photo in its media kit for the exhibit.

Bladesign  - Antonio Conceição Júnior designs swords including one that was forged by my client, swordsmith Rick Barrett. Antonio also worked with the Macao Museum of Art as curator for the International Contemporary Bladesmiths Exhibition, Masters of Fire that included a blade from another client, Anthony DiCristofano.

Foreveredge - Brandon Thell does traditional Japanese sword polishing and custom mounting. He has polished some of the same blades I have photographed for the swordsmiths Rick Barrett and Anthony DiCristofano. He also manages a sword related forum called The Japanese Sword Post.

Nihon-To Message Board - Richard Turner's fun and friendly forum for the discussion of Nihon-To and Related Topics.

hidden behind
