Other sources for Martial Arts Supplies -- Posted by webmaster on Thursday, September 15 2005

Here's a couple of other sources for Martial Arts Supplies (weapons, etc).

http://www.karatedepot.com (low prices)
http://www.awma.com (best known but is in Philadelphia so 7%
sales tax on purchases)
http://www.budk.com (knives, swords)

Also as a reminder to new students, Do Bahks and sparring gear are available from Master Summers at very low pricing so check with him for these items.

Internet source for weapons -- Posted by webmaster on Monday, August 15 2005

Excellent weapons class on Sunday. Master Summers really put us through our paces and I think we really got the hang of the new sword form.

For you guys looking for an Internet source for weapons, I've had good success with Tiger Strike Martial Arts Supply:

http://store.yahoo.com/tigerstrike-martial-arts/weapons.html

They have a good selection and the best prices I've seen.
