From the crazy sales events of last month to the Christmas rush – the holidays are upon us faster than I had personally anticipated and it’s nearly time to take some much needed time to recharge and prepare for the year ahead..
So here it is, our official holiday schedule for 2023-2034:
As it says on the box, we will close our office from this Friday the 22nd until Wednesday the 3rd of January – and during this time we will not be monitoring emails and shipping will not commence on orders placed during this period until early January.
So in the meantime, thanks to all of our customers who supported us in 2023 and we look forward to servicing you again next year!
While our most aggressive sales are behind us, December still has a few nice surprises in store for any last minute bargain hunters..
Lovers of Medieval Swords Will Appreciate:
Lovers of Medieval Swords will appreciate the two incredibly tough, Gus Trim designed 9260 Spring Steel Oakeshott accurate arming swords – with the Kingston Arms Type XIV and Type XVIII:
Lovers of Japanese Swords will appreciate the traditional styling of the Dragon King Lotus King Katana and Wakizashi set that can be purchased as stand alone items in their own right or combined together to make a very attractive matched Daisho set:
And for those who shy away from traditional blades and prefer something more contemporary with a spring tempered blade, look no further than the Dragon King 5160 Spring Steel Winter Sun Katana to embrace the changing season in icy steel..
And finally, lovers of Chinese Blades will appreciate the amazing value on offer from the long time classic Dao by Paul Chen’s Hanwei Forge – the Oxtail Dao which at its current pricing is an ABSOLUTE STEAL.
Well, the largest sale in SBG history is finally over. As we stated in teh last post, the number of people who took advantage of the crazy discounts on offer over the Black Friday/CyberMonday period was quite overwhelming and has caused a bit of a shipping backlog that probably won’t be cleared until around this time next week..
In the meantime though, for those of you who missed out we still have a few deals that are continuing from the November Mega-sale.
Here are the brands still on special in December:
The clearout and closeout sale from November continues into December with a 40% discount on the last models from the original series – including the stunning solid brass fitting and wire wrapped 5160 Spring Steel Excalibur sword – still a TOTAL bargain at just $274.99:
You will also find a decent selection of Roman Gladii, daggers and a few other items – but stock is running out fast so don’t less this closeout sale pass you by..
As per a request from the forges to continue with our Forge Direct and Project X line – those three lines (Forge Direct Chinese, Forge Direct Japanese and Project X Katana) are STILL available with a discount from 25-30% – though how much longer we can keep it open depends on how well they keep selling.
If people keep buying at this price point, we can keep the discount – but if it drops off, that is when the sale price will end or be adjusted down.
In the meantime, we will post here if and when we can secure any additional Holiday Season specials – but for now, if you are in the market for massively discounted last chance swords and high end Asian blades – grab these deals before they too are gone for good…
It really comes as no surprise that the last four days, from Black Friday to Cyber Monday, saw some pretty insane sales volume.. Many sword buyers had been pent up to buy a sword, but only if the price was right – and in the last few days – it had never been sooo right…
So the bargains were snapped up..
And so while the absolute pinnacle of the November Specials May Be Over, the base line deals saving from 10-40% off 10 major brands still have a few days left in them..
In the meantime, because the sales volume was so understandably high, please allow us a little extra time to process shipments and answer email inquiries as we are slightly overwhelmed and need some extra time to process all the bargains that you all just snapped up. 😉
So please be patient with us, we will do our best – and for everyone else, check out the HOT SPECIALS page for the last of this years best deals..
That’s right – in ADDITION to all the crazy discounts on offer this month, from NOW until Midnight EST you can use the coupon below to save a FURTHER 10% discount.
I have to say, with now TWO levels of discounts on offer the amount of money we are shaving off is making me rather nervous.. So grab what you can with two hands, I have NEVER seen such deep discounts and doubt that we will ever see anything like this again..
PLEASE NOTE: Due to the level of steep discounts being offered, please understand that we can only honor the ADDITIONAL 10% discount if it is applied at the time of ordering and we cannot refund it if you missed out or did not add it to the cart. Instead, well, just grab a bargain – with over 171 models of blade on heavy discount, add the coupon and save even more while you can.
