And in the showroom, I saw quite a few completed swords - and got to handle one for the first time.. And if there ever was a sword made outside of Japan that handled like a real Nihonto - these were it..The balance was truly incredible - they literally felt almost weightless - and indeed, when I compared it to a 500 year old Nihonto that Doninique and the team had used as a reference point, I said quite honestly "If I you had not just told me that was an antique, I would have thought it was one of yours"..THAT is the kind of handling I am talking about - the kind that you cannot really put into words but really must experience first hand.
Promotions, new products and sales. and even a casual thrust felt like a homing missile with pin point accuracy..It even came with a historically accurate scabbard (which, blown away by the handling of several Katana and these two European swords, I neglected to photograph!

Not every sword survives the process, which is another reason why differentially hardened Katana tend to cost more than those that are monotempered - as defective swords need to start all over again..But that's just the start - once approved, its time for the refinement process to begin. Their styles range from the flame wave of the ancient Middle East to the futuristic Klingon dagger. And though my interest was of course in the swords they had on offer there, I also checked out some of their beautiful knives, of which they had a stunning range and variety. I was particularly interested in a reproduction of a historical Khmer sword - which was something similar to a Burmese Dha, but with a leaf shaped blade and ornate engraved fittings..Always curious to see rare sword types, I was rather shocked by how heavy it felt in the hand, but Domanique assured me that 'this is the way the Khmer like it' and wondered how such an item would sell, to which Domanique replied "Oh, I had that one made for my own collection"..Citadel Knives and Swords truly is a unique company and have achieved what many would have considered to be an impossible task..But achieved it they have..
On the other hand, perhaps you’re looking for a vintage, modern or mixed collectable folding knife such as a pocket knife, tactical knife, trainer knife or multi-tool. These beautiful reproduction swords are handcrafted in Spain. And this is no scrappy off cut, this is the best quality there is - with prominent 'emperor nodes' (large nodules) running down the center of the handle.
