To
initiate a quote or to place an order, sending me an email works best
for retaining detailed information. DBK is not an 'add-to-cart and check-out' service, as all
of my commission work is far too complex for such services. Whether you
know exactly what you want, or if you're very new to all of this, the
first step is talking about it. I'm very responsive, and I'm happy to
help, so please feel free to contact me when you're ready.
If
you haven't already, please see my 'Pricing
& Options' page for more information on building your order.
I
am currently accepting commission work, but
please note my wait time; Due to extremely high demand of
my work, I have a rather lengthy wait in my
queue. Currently my wait is hovering around 3 years until my next opening. As a
solo artisan, I've always focused on quality
over quantity, and I will continue to do so.
A
$200 non-refundable deposit is required per each
scabbard to
reserve your spot within my queue. I greatly appreciate your
patronage, and patience.

Your commission can begin in multiple ways:
-
A
-
Your sword shipped directly
from you, to me When your spot is up in my queue, you ship your sword to
me, and I will ship it back to you when your order is complete.
-
B
-
Sword-less
scabbard orders** I have on hand
select
Albion sword models I can use to make your scabbard. This eliminates the need to ship a sword to
me, shipping the sword back to you, and saving you some money in the process. All the while you get the same great looking scabbard we always make without the worry of shipping.
Only shipping charges one-way apply, from me to you. Shortly before production
will begin, I will require the deposit to meet at least 50% or
higher of the value of the commission as collateral.

-
Albion swords purchased through DBK***
I manage the sword ordering process for you, and I will ship it
to you when your order is complete. Sword deposits are
non-refundable and final payment for the sword is due
when I receive notice of shipment from Albion shipping the sword
to me.
-
D
-
Your sword sent to me directly from the maker
/ manufacturer***
You can have a maker ship
directly to me and I will hold onto your sword with impeccable care,
and I will ship your commission to you when your order is complete.
(A $200.00
non-refundable deposit
is required
per each scabbard to reserve your position
within my queue. A $300 non-refundable deposit is required for each Next Generation
Albion sword, and $500 for each Albion Museum Line sword)

Deposits are applied towards the final cost.
Shortly before you're position is due up in the queue, you will be notified
to ship your sword to me, and we will discuss metalwork needed for the
commission. I normally require the sword approximately 4 weeks before
production begins, or sooner if extra special metalwork is needed for the
commission. Some circumstances for custom work may even require your
blade longer to complete the build. As always, communication will be
open and frequent to keep you abreast of all progress. | |
