The club is run by Dean, but a while ago Dean's old instructor returned to karate and joined Dean's club. Working together Kelvin went on to grade Godan and the MCN is a fitting celebration of their karate journey.
Dean also supplied us with the katakana from his belt so we could use the same translation on the Nafuda.
The original logo was low resolution and had a white background and was not suitable for importing into our graphics package. Dean was able to get the logo designer to send an image to our specification for inclusion that saved considerable time on reproducing it from scratch in our software. We selected the kanji for the clubs name in our standard "block" font, but others are available, see our link in the sidebar to "Fonts".
Dean also wanted to incorporate the shotokan tiger so we used our stock Shotokan tiger but made a few alterations. It was re-sized to match the Okami logo and the red from the logo was colour sampled and the background of the Shotokan tiger was adjusted to match.
Dean did not have a translation for Kelvin so we provided one, a fairly straight forward translation into katakana. Name translation is provided free of charge, but we like to use existing translations where available for uniformity.
Dean also asked he we could incorporate our hanging system in addition to the holes provide behind the end nafuda for direct fitting to the wall. 2mm stainless steel wire rope is used and a small swr grip within the profile of the frame which is not seen. The cable can be made longer, shorter or removed by removing the end caps and adjusting the grip.
The breakdown of the retail cost would be as follows
Frame - 1 rows of 7 Nafuda = 7 spaces @ £13.00 = £91.00
Nafuda - 7 nafuda @ £13.00 = £91.00
Suspension System - 7 units @ £0.75 = £5.25
Total = £187.25
There is free postage to non premium UK post codes
and Europe or Worldwide Postage is only £32.00
