You should contact Bernard Levine, a foremost expert on knives, appraiser for Smithsonian, and author of 10 book on knives. Most importantly he is an honest man and highly recommended by us. His website, knife-expert.com, has more information on him, as well as his contact information.

Please I need help. I have been collecting for about 15 yrs and I have so many knives, I would like to know the value of my large collection, and possibly sell it because I cant pack them around any more due to my health. There are bayonets and dress knives , knives still in there boxes, lots of mini knives and hunting and collectable knives like gill hibbons ect ect. I need a apraiser and possible buyer. Please can you help me?

Without knowing how much you wish to spend on a sword, I don’t know if I can make a good recommendation.

Of course, we first of all would recommend ourselves at Dragonfly Forge, Michael and Gabriel Bell. We do take orders. Michael also has other students (namely, Ron Macy) that could be possibilities.

If you would like to contact us directly with more specifics please call or email us.

Hello, I am a newcommer to the collecting/practicing game and I live in Colorado. I would like to buy my first real sword but I wish to support a smaller forge in the US or Japan or anywhere really but China. Can you make a recomendation or two? If not do you know who I can contact for this info. I am looking for a more econimical first buy, I just don’t want to prop up major Chinese industry for personal reasons. Thanks for your time and keep the art alive.
