For immediate sale – scratch and dent 9 Dragons Jian

The Forge Direct 9 Dragons Jian is made by rank 1 master smiths at the esteemed Baojian forge, but even Baojian has its off days..

Made in November last year, one of these swords arrived in less than perfect condition, with a few cosmetic marks on the folded and differetially hardened blade near the hilt..

And there is also a cosmetic gap in the hilt fittings that should have been finished better..

Normally a pristine new version of this sword would set you back $1,300 and you can order a new one for $975 at the SBG Store here – but otherwise, for these two issues one lucky and quick person can get these Dragon themed blade at the marked down price of just $390

Feb Flash Sale Round 2

Second of the February Flash sales sees the two ends of the spectrum of the Dragon King Katana line go on special until midnight Valentines day..

At the high end, the stunning Kawanakajima Katana, a folded mix of T10 tool steel and 9260 spring steel with prominent clay tempered hamon and ornate, silver fittings make this blade a treasure.

And indeed, with a MSRP of $1,500 (and our everyday low price of $1200) it is very much at the pinnacle of what a production Katana can be. But with the Flash sale you can pick it up for well below WHOLESALE for just $799.99 until midnight Valentines – a HUGE saving of over $400 of our already discounted pricing and $700 off the usual MSRP!

To the high end Kawanakajima, the next Feb Flash sale item is Dragon King’s most AFFORDABLE entry level blade – their differentially hardened 65 MN Spring Steel ‘Yanone’ Katana:

Sure, it might be made from a fairly simple (yet very robust) steel and the fittings are very basic by comparison, but with the flash sale price of $249.99 (marked down from $299.99, which was marked own already from the MSRP of $439) it’s Dragon King quality at the price of generic blades and well worth a closer look..
