The Fred Lohman Company offers high quality reproduction Menuki, Sarute and the odd parts scavenged from old WW-2 Koshirae.  Most WW-2 sword blades are in very poor condition and in need of polishing and the replacement or repair of the old handles (Tsuka).

We have the proper silk wrapping cord (Tsuka-ito), Stingray skin and we can make new wood 'liners' for your metal Saya.  Because of dirty & rusty contaminated old wood liners, a new Liner is a must for freshly polished blades.

Most important is the fact that we have high quality parts that will fit properly.  Equally important is the fact that our workers are the most highly skilled in the Country and have for the most part been 'Japanese trained' and know what they are doing. 

Investing into the professional restoration of a WW-2 sword is a smart idea as these swords have increased in value faster than many other antiques and are projected to continue to do so.

 If you want to know & see what your WW-2 sword originally looked like, or bone up on your WW-2 sword terminology, visit  this site.
