After a string of compact releases—knives, smatchets, and short blades built for tight encounters (click here for the full APOC line up to see what we mean)—the new Atrim Survival Odachi flips the script with unapologetic size and presence.
Designed by Gus Trim and affectionately dubbed the “Little Tigress,” this 43″ beast of black oxide-coated 9260 spring steel is built to hold your ground when the world won’t.
With a blister-free G10 grip, hooked guard, and molle-compatible fiberglass scabbard, it’s not just ready—it’s reliable. And at $229, backed by our lifetime warranty against blade breakage, it’s a rare blend of value and ferocity.
In uncertain times, this isn’t just a sword—it’s your line in the sand.
The Ryujin Horimono Series was never meant to be ordinary. From the etched motifs that whisper of dragons, guardians, and forgotten rituals—to the precision-forged blades built for battle and beauty—the soul of each sword pulses with purpose.
But even legends bow to reality. With razor-thin margins and post-tariff pressures, the $79.95 price is being held together by sheer force of will—and it’s slipping away.
In late 2024, we set out to recreate a “true” Ninjato—not the Hollywood prop, but a blade rooted in historical research and Shinobi methodology. The result as you might recall is the Night Mission Shinobi Ninjato by Black Dragon Forge:
Designed for stealth, speed, and silent precision, it features:
1095 high-carbon steel blade with a chisel tip for deep penetration
Distal tapering for lightning-fast handling
Leather-wrapped square tsuba to dampen sound
Extra-long sageo for unconventional techniques
Blowpipe and darts for silent ranged options
Though no antique Ninjato exists in any museum, this blade is the closest modern interpretation of what a real Shinobi might have carried.
Unfortunately, its April 6th launch collided with the worst of the trade war—tariffs spiked to 145%, and only a few lucky customers secured one before prices surged..
$100 Off Until July 31st
The Night Mission Shinobi Ninjato is back at its original stealthy price of $299.95—a full $100 off the tariff-inflated rate.
✅ Free shipping to USA & Canada
✅ No tariffs
✅ Ships direct from Longquan
✅ Limited availability
This is your chance to own a blade forged from history and refined for modern hands, but the special pre-tariff price is only available until the end of the month.
A Legacy Unearthed. A Price You’ll Never See Again...
They were never meant to return. Rock Creek Knives, launched in 2008 by Hanwei, were a short-lived but ambitious line of high-performance blades—crafted with proprietary steels, finished with premium materials, and designed to compete with the best Western makers. But when the Hanwei forge was consumed by fire in 2011, the line was quietly retired. The remaining inventory was shipped to Pieces of History, Hanwei’s UK-based sister company, and for over a decade, that’s where they stayed.
Until now.
Earlier this year, Pieces of History closed its doors, and a forgotten shipment of Rock Creek knives made its way back to the U.S. These are not reproductions. They are original, pre-fire production blades, untouched and preserved. And now, in a rare twist of fate, they’re being offered at 40% off MSRP in a final closeout sale.
Why so low? Because this is it. No more will be made. No more will be found. This is the last of Rock Creek—and we’d rather see them in the hands of collectors and craftsmen than gathering dust in a warehouse.
If you’ve been waiting for the right time to strike, this is it. Because once they’re gone, Rock Creek will return to legend.
The forge is cooling, the crates are nearly empty, and the clock is ticking. This is the final Hanwei closeout, and it’s moving fast.
All month long—and only while supplies last—we are defying the price rise trends by slashing prices on the last remaining Hanwei swords by an extra 10%. These are the final pieces from one of the most respected names in production swordsmithing, and with recent price hikes across the board, you will NEVER see these prices again (and indeed, this may well be the very last change ever to secure some of these classic Hanwei models).
Whether you’re a collector, a martial artist, or just someone who knows a good deal when they see one—this is your moment…
