Our Hawley library features titles from the late WM Hawley library. Many of these titles were compiled and written by Hawley himself, they are a great asset to sword collectors and those interested in feudal Japan.
We offer a broad range of instructional books. These books will help you both with the philosophy of training as well as demonstrating proper technique.
Included in this category are books about forging as well as the history of the Japanese sword. Many of these books are invaluable to a Japanese sword collector.
The Hawley library includes many informative wall charts, including sword terms, Japanese phonetic symbols, the thousand character classic, and other helpful resources.
