This is the suppier where we get our practice sabres, (they are listed as Longquan Yang style broadsword-lacquered) thanks to Ev for forwarding it. For those of you nearing completion of the Northern Sabre Form, and wondering what you want for Christmas, you could do worse than get one of these for around £70. We do not recommend any other shapes of sabre as our Form differs significantly from those more commonly practiced and the weighting of other sabres is significantly different. I removed some of the 'special shiny gold metal' fittings and added soft leather over the handle taken from a charity shop-bought leather skirt. I made silk scarves of just the right size from some habutai I had at home. You could buy silk kerchiefs or silk by the metre in any colour at John Lewis, I am sure. I will post a picture later.
