It is extremely well built, sharp, strong and from now until the 28th of August, available at below wholesale pricing..

I am talking of course about the classic Henry V Sword – a surprisingly fast and agile “beater sword” – i.e. a sword designed to withstand just about anything you decide to throw at it.

Unlike most other beaters this sword feels very light and lively in the hand – due mostly to its low point of balance (just 2.5″ from the cross-guard) and was described in a review by Afoo on the SBG Sword forum here as:

“I found it extremely fun to play around with – it’s like a small dog – very excitable and eager to play!”

Normally with a MSRP of $290 – we usually sell it for $209.99 but as stated earlier you can pick it up for a limited time for just $159.99 here at the SBG Sword Store.

At this price, every fan of medieval swords should grab one. Great value, but until the 28th of August and while stocks last…

What do you get the Japanese sword enthusiast who has everything?

Why a Naginata of course..

Made from differentially hardened tool steel with a real hamon and a saya (sheathe) that fits perfectly over the actual blade itself, the Hanwei Forge Naginata has not been available for many, many years – and while we can’t say for certain how long it will be available, we can say that it is available at the BEST PRICE EVER SEEN until August the 14th or until sold out..

Normally $860, this rare blade is available here at the SBG Sword Store for just $409.99

HISTORY OF THE NAGINATA IN A NUTSHELL

Originally believed to have been a Japanese variant of the Chinese Guan Dao, there were two variants – the O-Naginata (like the Hanwei version) and the Ko-Naginata.

The O-Naginata was used both on the battlefield by Samurai and were frequently attributed as the primary weapon of the Sohei warrior monks and the terrifying Yamabushi (mountain warriors).

The Naginata was typically used on the battlefield as an anti cavalry weapon, but the lighter, smaller ko-naginata was later adopted by female Samurai and used with deadly efficiency to protect their holdings and family when under attack.

Techniques for wielding this weapon include wide, spinning movements designed to clear the battlefield, and the extra leverage allowed for more forceful cuts than even the best katana could achieve.
