You know, You could always ahem, *make* a gift.
Like a hand-made tenugui, or a custom tsuba made from some cool mineral or wood, or buy some clay and paint and make a Kendo doll, or a furoshiki for their bogu, or my personal favorite, make a bokken and burn his/her name in it with a wood-burning set in their native tongue!

Failing that, bake 'em a PIE!!!

You can never go wrong with pie.

Well..unless maybe it's a cow-pie.....

anyway, It's better than store-bought crap, and the person will probably appreciate it 100 times more.
If they don't, then you might want to consider why they are your friend in the first place.
