Recommend a Martial Arts Store?

Are there any martial arts stores in Ireland. Looking for a good place to buy practice weapons such as wooden bokken. I know I can get them on ebay but just wondering are there any stores around?

www.fightlord.com - not strictly a bricks'n'mortar store, but Ireland based, so the shipping's quick. They're an accommodating bunch too, so if you don't see what you want, it's worth giving them a shout and asking anyway. I know they definitely carry bokkens, and they often travel to seminars with a stall full of kit.

Personally, FightLord would be my main port of call for all such things.
If FightLord don't have something I want, I go to Marli's in Drogheda (Tel: +353419843248). Small shop but has pretty much damn near everything that FightLord doesn't carry.

Fightlord is good, they sometimes have good deals such as 2 for 1 that sell out quick. I'm pretty sure one of their stakeholders posts here. So if they see this maybe they can tell more.

Yup thats their shop. All posts edited to suit the rules!

There is to be no mention, even in passing of the the place that can't mentioned - alluded to in the important sticky at the top of the page, this includes any of their sister business's.
