Japanese kuni sold anywhere?

[lionken07]

lately I've have growing interest in Japanese weapons. Looked all over the place for some kuni but no luck so far.

got any idea?

for those who don't know, a Kuni is a pointy weapon where one can throw and use it as a close combat weapon (well just like a knife).

edit:

well I found a pic of it (fake ones but it can give you an idea of how it looks like)

thanks for the link, but the webpage doesn't show much I guess I'll have to call them up to see what's up. Their product page don't even show the items that they sell.

how much are we talking about if I were to have a kuni made by him? have you ever order from him before?

I haven't but a friend has. quality is excellent-tanto was 400 a few years ago. His knives aren't pretty but are working/using tools up to the task.

Now, kuni (it is called "kunai") is not made in Japan.
True Kunai is not usually sold at Japan.
Most Kunai is made in China. And, it is cheap replica.
