Author Information

Katsujinken Magazine's Curator, Jason L.A. Hatcher shares, For some time I've mulled over the idea of creating Katsujinken Magazine to aid the sword arts community with educational resources, information, and industry highlights. Many of the art forms practiced by mixed edge weaponry enthusiasts are by their very nature obscure. Previous to Katsujinken, a magazine such as this has not been in existence, especially in the United States. And, Katsujinken extends to national and international readers as well. Sword Arts are undergoing dramatic growth on an international scale, with an exponentially increasing member base in the United States. Recognizing all practitioners, Katsujinken as an artisan publication, presents both Eastern and Western Sword Arts with associative media - this is a magazine long overdue. As an American-based publication, Katsujinken represents multi-ethnic and multi-cultural articles and themes. Affiliated countries where strong sword art - edged weaponry components exist include Australia, France, Germany, Japan, and Serbia to name just a few. But at Katsujinken, we do not stop there, because we intend to feature all age old sword traditions currently under reconstruction in the modern-era. Therefore, JLA Designs, in consortium with dpInk: DonnaInk Publications, is pleased to announce the premiere Katsujinken Magazine release date of November 2011. Please contact the publisher at www.donnaink.com to request the magazine production - we are attempting to refurbish the Createspace version as it is not the quality that is represented in Mr. Hatcher's magazine production.
