Just a very quick update, a few hours ago we closed off on batch 31 of the SBG Custom Katana – however if we were to follow our usual delivery schedule, batch 32 would end up seriously delayed by Chinese New Year Celebrations at the forge in late January 2015 to February.
Rather than have the batch get delayed like this, we have closed off on new orders to allow the forge to concentrate on getting completely up to date up to and including the most recent batch that closed a few hours ago.
Updates will be made accordingly and we will be doing our best to avoid any delays to existing orders – it is theoretically possible that there may be delays, but we have factored the Chinese New Year shutdown into our calculations so we should be fine.
Apologies for any inconvenience to people wanting to get in on a new batch, but we think it is better to pause orders entirely than get a slew of update requests from customers who miss important annoucements, etc.
Thanks for your understanding, more updates to follow soon (at the moment we are finishing off on shipping batch 28 and shipping some swords ahead of schedule on 29, so it is looking good!).
