Raven Studios

Raven Studios has been dedicated to designing and producing high quality martial arts training swords, weaponry and wooden dummies since 1998. Today RS training weapons can be seen in the hands of martial artists not only in nearly every State in the US, but in many Countries all across the Globe! Located in Oracle Arizona, every product is profess... ionally hand crafted with materials that are carefully selected for maximum durability and pleasing aesthetics. Everything on the Raven Studios web site is made individually, one at a time, by me personally. The items are not mass produced and there is no inventory of pre-made products. I make everything as the orders are placed and I take the time required to make the highest quality training weapons and wooden dummies as possible. Depending on how many items have been ordered and are in queue, (sometimes upwards of 60 swords) the estimated time of completion is normally about 6 to 8 weeks these days.

The turn around time is subject to change depending on the current volume of orders. When I receive your order, I will send you a confirmation email and give you an estimated completion date. Thanks to the ongoing feedback from many knowledgeable martial artists, Raven Studios will continue to refine and improve and serve the worlds martial arts community.
