Ok guys, a quick dose of anti-waffle so I can get straight into this post.
First up, and there is never any easy way to break it (we did make a brief mention in the P.S. of the Sword Buyers Digest Online Magazine, click here to read the October issue online), but as of the 1st-2nd of October you may have noticed that we no longer automatically offer free shipping to the USA on all of our swords..
Before anyone objects too strongly (a little grumbling is fine) bear in mind that we have absorbed shipping costs for years while our suppliers have not, and the time had come to charge.. BUT, as it is only really intended to offset rising costs on single sword orders, we still pass on any savings made from shipping more swords at one time.
So, if you order 1 sword the shipping is a reasonable $15 flat rate to ANYWHERE in the USA.
If you order a second sword, no additional charges – it is still $15. And if you order three or more swords – we will pay all the shipping fees!
Sure, it is not quite as good a deal as free shipping across the board, but it is the fairest deal we can offer just shy of it. Plus, to kick it off – we introduce the following addition to our REWARDS PROGRAM:
From now until further notice, order any three Hanwei Swords (excluding Tantos, Accessories, etc) and get free shipping plus this gorgeous deluxe sword carrying case by Hanwei valued at $100.
Actually, it is not just HANWEI swords – you may have noticed that we have also added some Legacy Arms and Kaneie swords to the Hanwei banner, and all of these new swords count towards the three sword total!
Grab some longsword blunts and a Sword of War, a high end Kaneie Katana, a Ninjato and a Practical Elite or mix and match. With our great base rate prices, free shipping and a stunning 3 sword carrying case valued at $100 there really isn’t a better deal out there!
Plus, if you are a registered customer, any PREVIOUS Hanwei purchases count towards the total. I am not 100% on that, but you can try it out in the checkout until you see the following circled text pop up:
Anyway, check it out – and the newest additions. When things are a little quieter I will muse a little on the new offerings, but for the time being why not just have a look?
There are some golden oldies making a comeback and – as I mentioned – Hanwei’s latest collaboration with Kaneie Sword Art who have re-entered the market with some solid 1060 monosteel cutters and mid to high end T10 tool steel blades with stunning real hamon.

Lots going on, so stay tuned for another post shortly!
