The Katsujinken Team once again wants to express our appreciation for continued reader, subscriber, contributor and advertiser support. Katsujinken receives praise from all corners of the planet and we are experiencing consistent growth.

And, this is understood at Katsujinken, Swordsmen and Swordswomen are unique - unlike all others . . .

As “the” Premiere Sword Arts Journal in the United States, Katsujinken’s aim is to bridge gaps while providing a consistent resource of free expression and individualized edged weaponry niche’ as well as collective conversation. We support both traditional and modern multinational swordsmanship and relative martial arts and training. It is our intention for each Volume to transport readers to a zone where they are allowed to fully immerse themselves in Revelations of the  Sword while referencing exceptionally high-ranked expertise and knowledge derived from a myriad of Sword Artisans and their practices. As you’ll note, many of Katsujinken’s contributors are top instructors within their Artforms. Some are internationally recognized doctorates, film-makers, historians, professors and etc. Others manage regional and international training centers. It goes without saying, to promote world-renown scholars, swordsmiths and aficionados and journalese features they provide to Katsujinken readers each quarter is a true honor.

We do not want to stop there, because Katsujinken holds something for everyone between our covers; if a “niche’” is seemingly under-represented—rest assured a story on the topic is coming soon. We love to hear from our subscribers—so if you feel we are missing something, contact us—after all this is your magazine!
