A note on our certificate paper:

 

Most of the pre-printed award certificates you'll find on the internet carry a basis weight rating of somewhere between 24lb and 28lb – this is a flimsy weighted paper. If held by one edge of the paper, the rank certificates will automatically fold over on itself due to simple gravity.

 

At Silk Road Enterprises, all of our award certificates are printed on 55lb-65lb card stock which provides for a level of sturdiness needed for a quality custom martial arts certificate.

First Karate Certificates

 

On April 12, 1924, Gichin Funakoshi, the "Father of Modern Karate," awarded karate's first black belt dan upon seven men. The recipients included Hironori Ohtsuka, founder of wado-ryu karatedo, Shinken Gima, later of gima-ha shoto-ryu, and Ante Tokuda, Gima's cousin) Kasuya, Akiba, Shimizu and Hirose. This beginning was a highly personal, yet formal ceremony in which Funakoshi is said to have handed out lengths of black belting and a hand brushed menjo (diploma) to his pupils.

 

Origins of Martial Arts Certificate Borders Design

 

The origin of the phoenix and classic border design originates in the imperial court of China and was only used on Official documents by the Emperor.

 

Three symbols of the Phoenix border.

  • The Phoenix is a symbol of Virtue, Morality, Benevolence, Faith and Courtesy. The male is on the left side and the female on the right facing each other on the top center of the certificate.
  • The Cloud placed on the top center of the certificate, between the male and female Phoenix symbolizes luck as clouds bring rains for farming.
  •  
  • The Paulownia, situated on the sides and bottom of the certificate along with Chrysanthemum (crest of the Royal Family of Japan) symbolize an oath to the Gods.

Four symbols of the Classic border

 

The Blue Dragon is identified with the water gods and the gods of fertility who invoke the rains on which the harvest depends. To Confucian scholars, this mythic creature of supernatural powers represents strength, virtue and loyalty.

  • The Phoenix is a symbol of Virtue, Morality, Benevolence, Faith and Courtesy.
  • The White Tiger is one of the Four Symbols of the Chinese constellations. It is sometimes called the White Tiger of the West, and it represents the west and the autumn season.
  • The Black Tortoise is one of the Four Symbols of the Chinese constellations. It is sometimes called the Black Warrior of the North and it represents the north and the winter season. It is usually depicted as both a tortoise and a snake, specifically with the snake coiling around the tortoise.
