Walter Sorrells is a bladesmith who forges swords and knives designed to appeal to the martial artist and the collector of Japanese-influenced blades.

Because Walter is a practicing martial artist who has studied a number of Japanese sword arts, he demands that his work be not only attractive, but functional.

Walter polishes his own blades using modern hybrid techniques which incorporate both traditional Japanese stones as well as modern Western techniques.  At this time Walter is only selling unmounted blades.   He can, however,  help to arrange high quality mounts on your behalf.
