THE ORIGINAL PRADO WORKSHOP

Custom orders currently take approximately 9–12 months to complete.
HAND-FORGED CHARACTER
Every custom piece is individually forged and finished. Natural variations in the steel, wood and scabbard are part of its one-of-one character.
KAMAGONG NOTE
Changes in humidity and temperature may cause slight movement or fine surface checking in kamagong. This natural response does not affect the integrity of the piece.
