We’re thrilled to introduce two stunning new additions to the APOC series—designed by none other than Jason Breeden, a veteran of the blade world with over 25 years of experience and a legacy that includes work with Condor Tool and Knife.
These knives are more than tools—they’re a fusion of form and function, forged with a distinctly Japanese aesthetic and built for serious performance.
What Sets Them Apart?
Dual Steel Construction: A striking blend of D2 and 1075 carbon steel delivers the perfect balance of edge retention and toughness.
Premium Handles: Black Micarta and G10 grips offer unmatched durability and control, even in the harshest conditions.
Signature Breeden Design: Sleek, purposeful lines with a nod to traditional Japanese blades—these knives don’t just cut, they command attention.
Extremely Limited Stock
We only have 2 or 3 of each design available. That’s not a marketing gimmick—it’s a reality. These blades are rare, refined, and ready to move fast.
Check them out now and secure yours before they disappear into legend.

Remember when we said the Dragonfly Katana was the last hurrah of the old Hanwei forge? Then pivoted and called it the firstborn of the new one? Yeah… well, turns out we weren’t entirely right either time.
Because now the Dragonfly’s landed in its final—and frankly most fitting—nest: under the Bugei brand, right here at SBG!!!
And with that, Bugei swords are now officially available at the SBG Sword Store—for the first time ever. For those unfamiliar, Bugei isn’t just another brand. It’s a legacy founded by Shihan James Williams, a master of classical Japanese martial arts with decades of experience in kenjutsu, iaijutsu, and tantojutsu. His vision for Bugei was clear from the start: to create swords that could stand shoulder to shoulder with historical blades—not only in appearance, but in function, balance, and soul. These aren’t fantasy props or decorative showpieces. They’re forged with purpose, designed for serious practitioners, and grounded in deep martial tradition.
The Dragonfly’s journey—misreported, reborn, and finally reclaimed—mirrors the spirit of Bugei itself. It’s a story of evolution, of survival, of finding the right hands to carry forward a craft that still demands reverence. And make no mistake: when you hold a Bugei sword, you feel something different. The weight is honest. The edge is purposeful. The geometry isn’t a guess—it’s a reflection of centuries of combat insight and careful refinement.
There are many swords out there that claim to be inspired by tradition. But very few can say they carry it forward. Bugei doesn’t just replicate the past—it keeps it alive, one forged masterpiece at a time.
But the Dragonfly is not the only sword to join Bugei’s new line up..
The Second Bugei Sword – the Armorers Katana
Right on cue for this evolving story, the newest addition to the Bugei lineup is the Armorers Katana—a blade that proudly carries the torch of function-first design. With its no-nonsense geometry, robust fittings, and a blade profile honed for martial performance, the Armorers Katana is a love letter to practicality and purpose. It’s the kind of sword that doesn’t need fanfare—it speaks through feel, balance, and cutting authority.
Whether you’re a dojo regular or a collector who values integrity over ornamentation, this is the blade that proves Bugei’s legacy isn’t just continuing—it’s gaining momentum.
Swordier proudly unveils the new Oakeshott Type XVIIIb hand and a half sword—a competition-grade weapon built to bite deep and never let go. Crafted from perfectly tempered 65mn spring steel, this blade isn’t just beautiful—it’s lethal. With its precise balance, sharpened edge, and hand-stitched leather grip, it’s a cut above anything in its class.
But let’s talk brass tacks: Yes, tariffs are up.
No, the price isn’t.
We’re absorbing the extra costs and taking the long road—shipping first by sea to our U.S. warehouse, clearing customs, and only then sending it straight to your doorstep. It might take a little longer, but trust us… the value is sharper than ever.
And the scabbard? It’s not a bonus—it’s a showstopper.
Hand-stitched, premium leather, and for $349.95 for the whole package – worth the price of admission on its own!!!
