From a business point of view, that seems to be the worst possible time of year to go about doing that.

Site's still down, I just tried...but it stands to reason they're probably closed for the holidays...Lord knows I would be open on the day after Christmas when all of the sword lovers of the world are ready to spend their Christmas gift money! lol

Actually, it's not an inventory issue. Last year I ordered a sword from them on the 27th of December, and don't recall the site ever going down before; as they update their inventory in real-time with the merchant catalogue software that most web-sites use these days. I figured it would have been a pretty bad business move on their part to take their website off-line Christmas Eve, as this is a hot selling time. Here is what Crystal from KoA posted on SFI: Hi, It's Crystal from KultOfAthena.com . We are experiencing technical difficulties with our server and hope to be back up and running soon. Our server decided to die on us right around Xmas. We are still here, still working, doing inventory and doing our best to get the site up and running again asap.Give it a few days. I guess we'll see what happens. Best of luck to them fixing it.

Maybe this happened in time to save the production sword industry! ;D

Not to use this as a shameless opportunity, but www.armsofvalor.com is still up and running and will match any KoA price. So if that money is burning a whole in your pocket you know where to go! ;D

Well, at least the KoA link goes to a web hosting page now. That's a little more comforting I suppose...

I'm actually not getting anything at all. If it moves you to a redirect site, that means the site is officially gone -- for how long is anyone's guess.
I may, however, have to find another place to buy the 1860 and 1840 I'm after.

Most likely that their page or server got hacked and redirected
