Which brings us to this:

Hello!!

 

It has been a while since we had an update and several things have transpired.. So here we go...

First: Neck surgery.. Seems that I had a couple of shell fragments working their way out of my neck pretty much since I got them in 2004  on my last deployment with the 324th.  This has been bothering me off and on for about 4 to 5 years and finally I had enough and went in..They dug them out.. sutured me up and sent me on my merry way.. Healed up no problems and I can actually move my head without feeling something  odd "in there" moving around in my neck.

Second: PayPal. Well..it seems that we here at Salamander Armoury are making and selling illegal, deadly weapons and PayPal doesn't like that so they closed not only my personal account, but my business account as well Sue's..Doesn't matter that there are over 140 THOUSAND sword, dagger and various knife  auctions on eBay that accept PayPal as a payment method..yet I am not allowed to due to the fact that I am selling "illegal, dangerous weapons".. I have no idea as to why we were singled out but we no longer accept PayPal. Now I am not taking this sitting down and I am fighting this..I am just starting to becoming a thorn in their arse over this...We are no where near done..

Now..we have signed up with Google Pay, and that is now active and this information will be on out payment pages shortly..  Which brings us to this:

NEW ITEMS!!

Since I am working on the final phases of book IV I have finished up several more Japanese inspired pieces..4 tanto and a wicked little  Naginata blade that will be posted sometime in the next 36 to 48 hours along with two more pieces of pattern welded materials.. These are really NICE so please take a look and see what we are putting up. I will be posting here when they are in fact available..So pleases check back..

In closing, THANK YOU for dropping by and for your continued support.. We here at Salamander Armoury greatly appreciate the patronage.

Thank you once again...

Hello:

To all of you who wrote in and sent their condolences and support after our recent loss..  We wish to say THANK YOU for your understanding and support. Things are still a mess and we are working our way slowly through everything but there is still a small mountain of things that need to be addressed...However we are making some headway..as slow as it is it is still progress..

Update: We are back at it..granted for a limited amount of time each day but I am back to work  as much as I can while dealing with this  (the aftermath is  still taking a sizable amount of time) yet I am getting some items done so keep looking as see what is new.

Which brings us to this: I just posted two more pieces..one a pattern welded dagger and the other  a  Gen II Dai-sho  (I have two numbers left in my series after this set)

This set is listed in my Japanese Style Blade Section and is ready to go..  So take a look..It is a gorgeous set..

So stay tuned for new items as they are finished and once again.. THANK YOU to all for your understanding and support...

Hello: 

This was supposed to be an announcement about several new pieces being posted....This is not the case..I will do that another day.

It is with a heavy heart that I have to convey that my brother Robert has passed away on Wednesday evening here in Spring Hill..he passed quietly after a long illness.  Things here are a bit shaken up and I have been very busy trying to tend to him and the tasks at hand. To those waiting for their pieces to be shipped.please know that they will be shipped as soon as I can..Hopefully this coming Monday, as I should have the arrangements made for what needs to be done by then.

 

RKH 1971-2020... Go in piece dear brother..you are now out of pain and tribulations.. We always will be grateful for the time we did have with you...
