First things first, as per our official guide to the holiday season – the ideal time to order any swords or sword related products has long since passed (any orders placed after the 8th of December may well have a hard time arriving in time for Christmas, so any orders placed from today – will probably not arrive until AFTER the holiday season).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Because swords can be damaged by excessively rough handling (and with the world’s postal and courier services pretty much fed up after nearly 2 years of almost single-handedly keeping the modern world moving along with very little respect or gratitude, rough handling for Christmas 2021 will likely be the norm rather than the exception) – we will not be doing any ‘rush orders’ or anything that will more likely than not just end up with a damaged or lost product at the worst possible time.. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tatami Mat Restock<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

In recent years, getting a supply of tatami mats has been a real challenge. So when we are able to get in a few boxes, it’s quite newsworthy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"\/<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Available in boxes of 20 (individually they work out to cost around $10.49 per mat) – stock is limited, so if you need some good mats at the best possible price, grab some while you can.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And while you are there, save time and messing around by buying an easy to assemble cutting stand kit for $99.99<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Suitable for tatami, and by removing the central peg, can also be used for water filled bottles!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Post Script: Runaway inflation and shipping increases meant that the old price we sold the mats for actually cost us a small fortune (we are charging $20 shipping, but the actual cost is closer to $50-60 – and it meant we lost money with every recent order).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Not fun, but to make it viable we needed to raise the price – and for everyone who was lucky enough to get them at the old ‘pre-pandemic’ pricing, you will not see prices like that again anytime soon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
