How do the engravings work, and how can I get a name in kanji?

At Blizniak’s Bokken, we offer the option to personalize your training weapon with custom engravings. Here’s how it works:

1. Laser Engraving: We utilize advanced laser engraving technology to etch your desired design onto the bokken. This method ensures precision and durability, resulting in a high-quality engraving that won’t fade or wear off over time.

2. Providing Your Design: To get a name in kanji or any other engraving, we ask our customers to provide an image of what they want to be burned onto the bokken. This image can include names, symbols, or any other design you desire. It’s essential to submit a clear and well-defined image to ensure accurate reproduction.

3. Customization Options: When placing your order, you can specify the engraving details in the provided customization options. Select the engraving location on the bokken, whether it’s on the blade, handle, or another part of the weapon. Additionally, you can choose the font style and size for your engravings to match your preferences.

4. Kanji Names: If you’d like to have your name or any text in kanji characters, please provide the kanji characters or the specific text you want. We will accurately reproduce the characters in the chosen location on the bokken.

5. Review and Confirmation: Before finalizing your order, carefully review the engraving details you’ve provided to ensure they are correct. Once you’ve confirmed the details and completed your order, our team will proceed with laser engraving your bokken to your specifications.

6. Unique Personalization: Custom engravings allow you to add a unique and personal touch to your training weapon, making it truly one-of-a-kind. Whether you choose to display your name, a meaningful symbol, or kanji characters, your bokken will reflect your individual style and identity.

Please keep in mind that the quality of the engraving depends on the clarity and detail of the image or text you provide. If you have any specific requirements or questions about the engraving process, feel free to reach out to our team for guidance and assistance. We may reach out to clarify the location of the engraving if it is not specified.

Please Note:

Custom orders are still temporarily paused.

Although we had originally planned to resume custom orders on April 1, 2026, we are still working through our current order backlog and preparing for a shop move over the next couple of months. Because of this, we will not be reopening custom orders until at least June 1, 2026, and possibly later depending on the timeline for getting the new shop fully up and running.

All existing orders remain in progress and will continue to be completed as promptly as possible. This temporary pause helps us stay focused on fulfilling current orders and making the transition into the new shop as smoothly as possible, without compromising the quality and attention to detail we put into each piece.

We are hoping to add more pre-made items to the website in the meantime, so please check back for updates.
