About Us - CF Swords

CF Swords is an entirely Canadian owned business and our primary focus is being the best online source of the finest quality swords and weapons for our customers.

How We Started

From a very young age I had always been facinated by the past, from knights in shining armour, the samurai of feudal Japan as well as the weapons they wield. Years ago I managed to obtain a movie sword from one of my favorite films, it was both priceless and one of a kind. During a move to a new location the handle was broken beyond repair and because of it's unique nature, impossible to replace. I set out to fix it myself and learn everything possible about custom casting and sword design. I wanted to keep as much of the original piece as possible, the blade was still in beautiful condition and the majority of the damage was to the handle, so I started there. The original handle was carved out of wax which was molded, and then resin casted. It was then assembled with the blade and the guard for the final piece. Although I'd like to say the process was easy to duplicate, it wasn't. Trial and error alone through each of the steps taught me this rare art form which I passed on to others.

Our team now works with our current customers to create there own custom pieces using the exact same procedure I used back then, only refined for greater success.

Throughout my research I came across some very unique suppliers and manufacturers, everything from genuine japanese folded and damascus blades to high quality carbon tool steel blades; genuine japanese tsubas to modern day

handguards. I already had a background in many of the oriental arts, carving, forging and sword assembly, but I learned about wax sculpting, molding, and resin casting. As a result of all the information, I not only finished and fully restored the piece but started CF Swords as well.

How We Do Business

To say that we run our business different than other online companies is probably an understatement. Any of our past customers will tell you that. We receive new sample items from various suppliers all the time wanting us to add there products to our site, but before blindly including them, we auction these items first. Based on the demand, interest and customer satisfaction we either add or pass on them.

Basically, our customers help build CF Swords and they become the best quality assurance testers we can have. In exchange for that help, they are able to be the first to own any of our new products long before anybody else, at the lowest possible prices.

Feel free to browse our site and at the same time contact us with any questions or feedback you might have about us or our products. We treat every customer inquiry seriously and are more than happy to assist. Afterall a business is nothing without potential customers.
