Forge Direct goes from strength to strength with the release of 18 new exciting and original Master Smith forged swords in the Spring Collection 2018.

And as you can see, all the new models are available with a whopping 20% introductory special pricing offer from now until the 30th of April.

Here’s a little taste of what is in store:

THE MURAMASA MK II

This is actually a limited edition offer – ONLY available from now until April 30 – and it is for a fully customizable version of the original Muramasa prototype I had made that kicked off the Forge Direct Japanese project..

You can leave it as is, and get the exact same sword I tested in my review here – or tweak it however you like. The customization options are NEARLY as many as for the full $899.99 Custom Katana, so if you are in the market for an elite level cutting Katana, made to YOUR taste and style – you only have about 10 days to get in on this one..

Traditional Chinese Swords

There are some real standouts in the selection for Chinese swords – too many models to go over quickly here, but here are a few that I think deserve more than a cursory look..

SPINSTEEL JIAN

One of the most unique is the so called Spinsteel Jian – which is made using a special revolving pattern welding technique to produce a blade, well, a blade like THIS..

CLASSIC PEONY JIAN

Bargain lovers in the market for a nice handling Jian should love the Classic Peony – stylish traditional fittings, but the master smith folded 1095 carbon steel blade flashes like lightning with a point of balance just 3.93 inches from the hand guard, and is one of the most affordable at just $439.99 (and remember, this includes FREE WORLDWIDE SHIPPING!).

And then Fantasy Swords, blades with unique patterns like the Sword of Hannonlle…

Or the ultra affordable Sword of the Ages – eagle themed brass fittings with Jian scabbard and 1095 folded carbon steel blade is a nice surprise with an introductory price of not $699.99 but just $539.99 shipped worldwide…

There really are too many exciting designs to be able to cover here. So check them all out below – and be sure to grab these bargains while you still can. The special pricing is only valid until the end of the month…

Summer is just around the corner, so it is appropriate to offer an early bird special with the Summer Lotus Katana by Dragon King.

One of the 4 swords from their ‘seasonally themed’ series – this exceptionally durable blade is made from monotempered 5160 Spring Steel and features premium fittings with cotton ito wrap, buffalo horn rimmed koiguchi and the high standards everyone has come to expect from Frenchie Jin’s talented team of artisans.

Nornally selling from between $379 up to the MSRP of $499 – from now until the end of the month and while stocks last you can pick it up for a crazy $274.99 – PLUS you also get FREE SHIPPING!

So if you are in the market for a rugged, no-nonsense dojo cutter or backyard beater – well, grab a bargain with this one – at this price, nothing else even comes close to the value for money you get..

A couple of Limited Edition Deals for those who act fast..

This post we have not one but TWO limited edition deals that all sword enthusiasts should have a good look at.

First off, the Dojo Pro Tanto series by Ronin Katana are back!

This is only a limited restock (the next batch is not due until mid to late Summer 2018) and STILL at the special introductory price of not $125, but just $59.99!

Three models are available, and you can check them out in the hot specials section here.

The second limited offer is for the limited edition Model # 3 Two Handed Sword by Ronin Katana.

This wide bladed Bastard Sword is a replica of the historical Harriet Dean Sword – a 600 year old Italian Sword gifted to Alexandria during a time of relative peace and lost for nearly 72 years before being found again in, of all places, a restaurant in Texas! (click here to read the backstory).

It is basically the same as the standard model 3 – but for $25 more you get the authentic Arabic inscription which was key to identifying it.

The inscription reads: Pious donation of the king al-Mu’ayyad to the arsenal in the frontier city of Alexandria in the year two and ten and eight hundred

Once they are sold out, this limited edition 1075 carbon steel blade with deluxe scabbard will be gone for good.

Dragon King Fletching Katana on Special Until end of March

Another hot special by our friends at Dragon King – this month we see a huge discount on their new Fletching Katana – a 65mn (Manganese) steel blade with attractive, Japanese archery themed fittings.

The blade of this one is, as mentioned, 65mn steel – which has the following properties:

65Mn is a readily-available Chinese steel that is formulated to provide good wear resistance and hardness. The medium-high carbon content makes for a high degree of toughness and resilience, while the manganese, in addition to improving these properties, improves the hot-working characteristics of the steel, making it an excellent candidate for forged sword blades.

65Mn Steel Composition: 0.62-0.7C 0.9-1.2Mn 0.17-0.37Si

As such, the end result is a hard wearing, yet traditional blade that you can count on to perform time and time again.

Truly amazing value at just $299.99 with FREE SHIPPING – grab these while you can.
