Don't fancy your chances in the ring but still want to win your very own hand forged, battle ready katana? Here's your chance! This year, to raise funds for the Empire Cup, we're raffling off a high quality T10 steel clay tempered katana with real hamon, copper tsuba with inlaid floral design, genuine ray skin samegawa with navy blue cord and knot paper wrap for firmer grip. The black lacquered saya features subtle mon designs and navy blue sageo.
To enter, send your payment via venmo or zelle, or cash on the day of the tournament, and be sure to include your full name, and instagram account, phone number, and/or email, whichever are best to get in contact with you. The winner will be chosen on the tournament livestream after the trophy ceremony has concluded, at approximately 8pm.
Feel free to DM if you have any questions, and good luck!
Disclaimer: Once chosen, the winner will have 48 hours to respond in order to claim their prize. If no response has been received after 48 hours, a new winner will be randomly selected.
