Spend the day in the 16th Century and have the time of your life." You will find us at Booth 183. Angel Sword will be at Origins Game Fair June 25th -29th, 2008 in Columbus, Ohio |

Angel Sword offers the finest in hand crafted, one-of-a-kind swords all made in Driftwood, Texas. Master Sword Smith Daniel Watson designs each blade and personally oversees each piece through its construction process insuring a perfect fit and superior cutting edge. Daniel Watson has been forging blades for the past 30 years for both practitioners of martial artists and sword collectors. We post our Newest Blades in the NEW BLADES store; click here to jump straight to them. During the Fairs, the shopping cart check out feature will remain disabled while our inventory is away from the forge; however, you can still view what’s in stock. If you see a piece you are interested in, contact our sales manager, Brandt, at the forge. Contact information is available on the left hand menu. A blast from the past - it's amazing what one finds when they clean their desk up. Thanks goes to Brandt for finding these archive pictures back from 1995. I will post more images from this CD over the next few days so keep your eyes on this page. 1995 gallery page 1 |

Meet Daniel Watson Master Sword Smith |
|
 Daniel first embraced swords as a martial artist. This is one reason why Angel Swords, when held, feel like no other blade. Sword quality depends on materials used, method of construction, and purity of form. Watson combines all these with skill and devotion to create unique blades, each of them one-of-a-kind, with a personality and style all its own.
Daniel got his first sword – a 300 yr. old Chinese jian – when he was 9 years old. This sparked his interest in martial arts. A few years later he got a job working in a welding shop that provided his introduction to metalworking. These two events helped develop early interests that eventually turned into his calling. After dabbling in metalworking and forging for several years, Daniel started making swords seriously in 1979 while he was teaching martial arts in Cuernavaca, Morelos, in Mexico. He began selling swords at his martial arts school, where he taught Shaolin Kung Fu and Tai Chi Chuan. He later started selling his swords at martial arts tournaments and seminars. Watson moved back to Driftwood, TX, in 1983, founded Angel Sword, and started forging and selling swords full time. Today, Watson is a featured artisan at renaissance faires in Texas and New York and keeps a busy schedule attending numerous knife shows around the country.  Open House 2006 Mat Cutting |
