Hi guys
I'm looking for a place that I can get some inexpensive Japanese sword fittings they don't need to be amazing or fancy just nice and functional I,m planing on making a katana but I don't have the time and don't know haw to make some of them anyway if you could help me find a source and or point me in the direction of a book that would teach me how to make them I would greatly appreciate it thanks for your time chris
 
Have you tried Fred Lohman? (http://www.katana4u.com/) He carries all the parts you'd need to build a tsuka and saya. Of course, you could also just send him the finished blade and he could put it together for you!
