They are widely regarded as one of the good dealers to deal with.

Fair prices, and honest. I haven't heard anything bad about them at all.

As always, get a few other opinions first, but I think you should have pleasant dealings there. Some of the polishes look to have been done non-traditionally on a few blades, but not sure if that is before they were supplied for sale or not.

Excellent sellers mostly in gendaito and Showa era swords. A friend bought a Yasukuni blade from them and was very happy with the transaction.

A great guy, and excellent to deal with. You will often see his posts here.

No worries there..deal with confidence.

Hi Dan

I run JapaneseSword.com with my wife. Let me know if there is anything I could help you with. I am out of the country quite often for my day job so sometimes am a little slow to respond so be patient if you do not hear back from me immediately

Dan:

I've known and dealt with Alfred and his wife for over ten years, and have never had a bit of difficulty. He attends the Florida Show each February and has helped me to learn some of the finer points of collecting. I have purchased over 5 blades and a number of tsubas from him. His description and photos on the web site are excellent. I wouldn't hesitiate to purchase from him or allowing him to sell an item, in fact he's done that for me also. Very fair and honest.

Outstanding young man.
