About Me

Hi, I'm Seijiro, a Japanese sword enthusiast living in Melbourne, Australia. As the founder of a specialized sword buying agency, I'm dedicated to connecting Australian fans of Japanese swords with their passion.

"Bridging Australia to Japan's Katana"

My journey started with a fervent desire to dismantle the language barriers that often hindered Australian enthusiasts from accessing the captivating world of Japanese swordcraft. Recognizing the complexities involved in purchasing and shipping these prized blades, I set out to streamline the entire process, ensuring a seamless and stress-free experience for every sword aficionado across Australia. Fuelled by my profound admiration for the artistry and history behind Japanese swords, I am driven by an unwavering commitment to exceeding customer expectations. With every transaction, I aim to not just deliver a sword, but to fulfill dreams and ignite passions. As your trusted sword agent, I stand as the conduit between your aspirations and the reality of owning a piece of Japan's legendary sword legacy.
