All Furuyama swords are considered custom order. This is done so that each swords fits the unique style and tastes of its owner. Custom Orders usually take 4 – 6 months for delivery. Please remember that each sword is hand forged and individually hand made to order. Delivery time will vary and 4 – 6 months is only an estimate. J-Armory does not know when an order will be completed or how an individual order is coming along. All we get is a notification that a batch of swords is on the way. We do not know which swords are in the shipment until we unpack and inspect the swords. After the swords have been inspected and matched up with the order, we will notify you that your sword has arrived.

All Furuyama Iaitos feature clay tempered steel blades, natural hamon and a 1 millimeter rounded edge unless otherwise stated. The Iaitos are not very sharp so that you can practice safely with the same weight and balance as the sword you actually cut with. The same options that are available for katanas are also available for the Iaitos.

We require half down at the time of order and the balance when the sword arrives in the US. Please use the shopping cart feature when available to order a sword or use our order form. If you are placing an order by e-mail, just be sure to list the item, options, price, tax if in Texas, payment method (Money Order or Paypal), and shipping address.

J-Armory will replace the blade or handle if it brakes during the normal course of dojo practice or competition involving the cutting of a properly prepared Goza mat.  The blade and handle is not covered against breakage if the damage is caused by cutting objects such as trees, bricks, copper pipe, etc...  The blade or handle will be replaced with parts that are comparable to the original if the identical parts are not available.  This replacement warranty covers the replacement of  one blade and one handle during the lifetime of the sword.
