Defying the trend – the super affordable Horimono Series is Back!

After nearly two months of frozen shipping lanes, we’re thrilled to announce the triumphant return of the Ryujin Horimono Series—a lineup of five uniquely styled swords, each featuring a striking Dragon Horimono engraving on the blade.

Crafted from 65Mn Spring Steel, these blades are built for toughness, resilience, and real functionality—without the jaw-dropping price tag that’s becoming all too common in the industry. In a time when tariffs and uncertainty have sent sword prices soaring, the Horimono Series stands as a bold defiance against inflation—offering premium craftsmanship for under $100.

Whether you’re a collector, a practitioner, or just someone looking for a high-quality sword that won’t break the bank, these blades deliver in style, durability, and affordability.

UPDATE 7th June: After you guys asked for it, and considering all the price rises and trade war blues that has dominated 2025 so far, we have lowered the price back to just $79.95

But fair warning: we don’t know how long we can hold this price. With stock replenished and demand rising, this is your golden opportunity to claim a Horimono blade before the winds of trade shift again.

Don’t miss out—grab yours now while they last!

A small but significant restock..

As the trade war flickered off—only to roar back to life within 24 hours—a handful of swords from two major brands managed to slip through the gauntlet. Despite the brief tariff suspension at customs, the shipment still faced a much heftier duty than ever before. The silver lining? It wasn’t the dreaded 145% and it did NOT raise the price for customers… Small victories, right?

This marks one of the first restocks since the industry was effectively frozen by the April 2nd announcement. While it wasn’t a major shipment, any sword that makes it through is a hard-fought win for collectors and enthusiasts alike.

In times like these, we welcome every scrap of good news with open arms.

So here they are—three newly restocked swords, fresh from the forge and ready to find their rightful place in your collection:

Kingston Arms Scottish Claymore – Brown Leather

Legacy Arms Roman Gladius

Legacy Arms Maintz Gladius

Quick Hanwei Update (Vanishing Blades)

While a few brands have managed to push stock back onto the shelves, Hanwei is seeing the opposite—its swords are disappearing faster than ever. And the worst part? We have no idea when (or even if) some of them will be restocked.

Restocks will be handled on a case-by-case, model-by-model basis, and any future pricing remains uncertain. This means that if you don’t grab these swords now, there’s no telling when your next opportunity will come—if it comes at all.

Here are a few models that are on the brink of selling out (indeed, it is happening so fast now that one item has become sold out as I was typing this out!):

Hanwei Shinobi – LAST ONE

Hanwei L6 Bainite Oni Katana – LAST FOUR

Hanwei Celtic – DOWN TO LAST 5

If you’ve been eyeing one of these blades, now’s the time—before they become relics of a bygone era.

The White Wolfs Arsenal is Complete! (plus a quick tariff related update)

The final piece of the Witcher’s legendary collection has arrived—the Sword of the White Wolf is now available from our friends at Swordier.

Forged from perfectly tempered 65Mn spring steel, this sword reflects the craftsmanship worthy of a true monster slayer. The twisted steel hand guard and scent stopper pommel make it an unmistakable tribute to Geralt’s iconic weapon. Wrapped in genuine leather, it offers a battle-ready grip, whether displayed or wielded.

Yet, as another great sword enters the collection, the sword industry itself faces immense uncertainty. The trade war continues to wreak havoc, causing production stalls, delays, and project setbacks. While we remain committed to adapting, the full consequences have yet to unfold, making each new launch harder to predict.

While we may slow down on blog updates for now, our commitment to the craft remains unwavering. We thank our dedicated customers, who understand that great things take time—and just like a Witcher, we fight through the unknown with skill, determination, and a blade that never falters…
