IRONWOLF Second Wave: Steel Meets Legend

The wolf returns—and this time, it carries the weight of legend.

The second wave of IRONWOLF swords continues our mission to deliver battle-ready blades forged from monotempered spring steel, peened and sharpened for real-world use. But this time, we’ve crossed into the realm of fantasy—bringing iconic swords from Middle-earth into your hands, not as fragile replicas, but as functional weapons worthy of their names.

Here are the first three:

Andúril – Flame of the West

Forged from the shards of Narsil and reforged for the true king, Andúril is more than a sword—it’s a symbol of destiny. Our IRONWOLF version honors the legacy with a sharpened spring steel blade, solid stainless steel fittings, and a peened pommel for durability. Whether you’re cutting bottles or commanding armies, this sword is built to lead.

Glamdring – Foe-Hammer

Wielded by Gandalf the Grey and later the White, Glamdring is the sword of wisdom and wrath. Our rendition captures its elegant Elvish design while delivering real cutting power. With rune-inscribed details and a grip built for control, this isn’t just a wizard’s relic—it’s a warrior’s tool.

Ranger’s Sword – Blade of the North

Inspired by Strider, heir of Isildur and protector of the wilds, the Ranger’s Sword is a hefty two-handed weapon built for endurance and power. With a broad spring steel blade, peened pommel, and rugged fittings, it’s designed to deliver lethal blows and reliable balance. This is the sword of the lone wanderer—the silent guardian who walks the shadowed paths so others may sleep in peace – and includes a cool little bonus sheathe knife in the scabbard.


These aren’t just swords—they’re functional tributes to the stories that shaped generations. And with more fantasy blades on the horizon, the IRONWOLF legacy is just beginning.

If you’ve been waiting for something truly extraordinary from Bugei, this is it.

We’re beyond excited to announce the arrival of the Mukade Ni Katana — a sword so rare, so refined, and so elite that only 15 will ever exist. This isn’t just a katana. It’s the result of a dream team collaboration: designed by James and Christopher Williams, featuring custom shibuichi fittings by Roman Urban, and hand-forged by Ron Chen in his private forge using SN490 steel—known for its strength, resilience, and whispering hamon.

Every inch of this blade screams luxury and martial pedigree. From the katatemaki wrap in brown Japanese cotton to the Sun Tzu-engraved menuki and buffalo horn accents, it’s a weapon worthy of legends. Whether you’re a collector, practitioner, or connoisseur of the sword arts, the Mukade Ni is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to own a piece of living history.

They won’t last long. See the Mukade Ni Katana here and claim yours before they vanish into myth.

Steel Reforged: The IRONWOLF Line Launches with Unprecedented Value and Limited Availability

In an industry where prices keep climbing and quality often feels like an afterthought, the new IRONWOLF by Ryujin line is a breath of fresh air—and a howl in the dark. Developed in close collaboration with the SBG team, these swords are designed to be functional, historically inspired, and shockingly affordable.

Each model is priced at just $199.95 with free shipping, and quantities are extremely limited.

This is not mass-market fluff or marking spin and BS. These are real swords with sharpened spring steel blades, peened construction, and historically grounded designs. Whether you’re a reenactor, martial artist, or backyard cutter, the IRONWOLF line offers serious steel at a price that’s practically unheard of – until now that is.

Here are the first 3 – serious WMA (Western Martial Arts) grade beaters – each one featuring a hard wearing, sharpened 65mn spring steel blade with steel fittings, wax cord wrapped wood core hilts and peened pommels:

The Bordersteel

A hand-and-a-half sword with a broad blade and extended grip, perfect for both cutting and thrusting. It’s the most versatile of the trio, ideal for reenactors, martial artists, and backyard cutters alike.

The Ritterstahl

Compact and aggressive, this bastard sword excels in close quarters. Its shorter blade and longer grip make it a favorite for those who want speed and control without sacrificing power.

The Edelstahl

And for those who walk the wilder paths of sword collecting, we’re also introducing Rogier’s Spellblade from Elden Ring (we originally named it differently, but at the end of the day – it is what it is!) —a bold, functional fantasy design priced at just $149.95 with free shipping! It’s the perfect add-on for those who want something a little more savage in their collection:

Rogier’s Spellblade

These swords won’t last long. Once this first batch is gone, it may be weeks—or longer—before they return. So if you’ve been waiting for a chance to own a real sword without paying a premium, this is it.

The IRONWOLF line is now live—ready to ship, ready to cut, and ready to earn its place in your collection.

Introducing the Breeden Derecho: APOC’s Blade for the End of the World (or Just Your Backyard)

When the skies darken and the winds howl, you’ll want a blade that doesn’t flinch. Enter the Breeden Derecho, the latest beast in APOC’s Fallout Series—designed by none other than Jason Breeden, whose survival blades are as no-nonsense as they come.

This isn’t just a sword. It’s a machete-saber hybrid forged from 1075 high carbon steel, with a full tang that’s thick enough to laugh off abuse and long enough to swing with authority. Whether you’re clearing brush, splitting kindling, or fending off mutant raccoons (we’re not judging), the Derecho’s 18¼” blade is built to deliver.

The handle? Canvas micarta with APOC Red G10 liners, pierced for lanyards and sculpted for grip that won’t quit—even when your palms are slick with sweat or rain. And when it’s time to move, the Molle-compatible Kydex sheath keeps it close and ready.

At just under 2 lbs, the Derecho is surprisingly nimble for its size—perfect for one-handed strikes or two-handed control when things get serious. It’s a blade that feels like it belongs in a wasteland, but works just as well on a weekend camping trip.

So whether you’re prepping for the apocalypse or just want a blade that looks like it could survive one, the Breeden Derecho is here. Brutal. Beautiful. Ready.

Hanwei Returns with a Thunderclap – Introducing the Raimie XL Katana

After a long silence and a few false starts, CAS Hanwei has roared back to life—and the Raimie XL Katana is the thunderclap that marks its revival.

Named after the Japanese word for thunder (“raimie”), this katana is more than just a new release—it’s a statement. Built on the proven XL Series blade geometry, the Raimie XL is designed for heavy cutting, with a steep edge angle that makes short work of tatami mats, bamboo, and other traditional targets. Whether you’re a backyard cutter or a dojo practitioner, this sword delivers the kind of performance that made Hanwei a household name among sword enthusiasts.

The 28¼” blade is forged from 1566 steel and hardened to a razor-sharp 60 HRC at the edge, with a softer spine for resilience. Its fittings echo the storm: silver habaki, menuki, and seppa contrast against a black tsuka-ito and white faux same, while the textured black saya resists fingerprints and smudges. The tsuka is double-pegged and fully removable, with synthetic components over a wood core—keeping the sword durable and affordable.

Priced at $399 (but on sale at SBG for just $299.95!), the Raimie XL Katana is not just a new product—it’s a signal that Hanwei is back, and serious about cutting..
