kichigai-han Newbie Registered: 04/15/05 Posts: 12	yeah, so i've heard the name howard clark recently. seems he makes japanese style swords. not japanese katana's, but only styled after them. seems that by not adhering to the strict traditions of forging a katana he can make them stand up to a lot of abuse...:http://swordforum.com/summer99/howardclark.html i'm wondering if anyone has one of these bad boys, or has seen one. can anyone attest to their quality? thanks for your time.

I will email him a link to my website and ask him if he will issue a warraty for the type of practice I do. If he does, I shall be ordering one of his swords soon and reviewing it on my website.
