Three One off ‘scratch and dent’ items from Scorpion Swords

With the sword industry far to quiet and experiencing an increasingly difficult and essentially unsustainable sales situation, in the downtime our friend Chris Palmer from Scorpion Swords took a little time to gather together a handful of swords that they had lying around the workshop for one reason or another and create a limited ‘scratch and dent’ sale promotion (though as you will see, there is not really anything scratched or dented about them)..

The first one is the last of series, a Fantasy Celtic Sword that was designed as part of the now defunct ‘Legendary Swords’ Project.

This one comes complete with a leather sheathe, solid brass fittings and a wickedly pointed triangular gladius style blade and was sold back in the day for $338.99 but is available as part of the sale for just $269.99 (and is the very last one that will ever be made, as the project, and this sword – has been wound up quite some time ago).

The second one came about as a misinterpretation of a customers custom order specification. They asked for a ‘reverse blade’ version of the Thai Daab – and while cool (almost like a kukri), it was not actually what the customer meant – so Chris remade it for the customer and now the unique reverse blade version is on sale as part of the scratch and dent sale for just $199.99 (normally $259.99).

And finally, Chris can’t actually remember why he has one, but only that he does have one in stock – and that is the meaty cleaver like blade that is the sword of Hakai.

Normally $249.99, it is available ex-stock for just $199.99 (and along with the Thai Daab, both can also be ordered with a leather sheathe – though this will delay shipping if selected as an option as it will need to be custom made).

Definitely 3 great deals for 3 lucky people – check these out and more in the HOT SPECIALS section of our Store:

New from APOC: The Survival Wakizashi

In addition to the recent restock of the APOC Longsword we mentioned just a few days ago, a new Tactical 9260 Spring Steel blade snuck itself into stock – the next logical sword in the series being a matching Wakizashi for the Survival Katana, creating an Apocalyptic Daisho set unlike any other ever seen!

Suitable paired with the Katana or as a short, fast and deadly standalone sword in its own right, the Survival Wakizashi is perfect for survival in cramped conditions yet versatile enough to stand against any other hand held weapon – and an absolute bargain to boot. Normally $199.99 – available at SBG for just $149.99

April Specials

With the march madness sales mostly over (though there are still a few closeouts from March in the HOT SPECIALS section still running) the April Sale has started on a few selected items you would be an April Fool to let pass you by if you sat on the sidelines of last months sales bonanza..

First one is the Knights sword Type XVIII by Kingston Arms, which is usually $349.99 but is on sale all April and while stocks last for just $279.99 which is always a steal for this particular historically inspired classic arming sword:

And for lovers of Japanese blades, what could be better than the Kohaku Katana by Dragon King?

Last time it was on sale was pre-pandemic 2019 – but once again this classic T10 tool steel blade is marked down from our everyday low sale price of $629.99 (MSRP on this baby is $949) to a below wholesale cost price of just $520..

Truly a bargain to basically pick up a $1000 Katana for half price.. I mean, just look at that hamon and boshi…

And to round things out nicely, a couple of the items from the APOC March Super Sale have gone back on 15% discount, so we are passing the savings directly to you as always. Here are the two blades that are on special until the end of the month:

The Double Muk Hatchet, normally $84.95 (MSRP $109) save 15%

Last Chance on the Last Chance Bowie Knife – normally $74.95 (MSRP $95) save 15%

Hope you find something of interest.

Medieval Restock and a new Scottish Claymore

Starting the month with a restock of popular swords – probably the most notable is the restock of the A.P.O.C. Survival Longsword – which was notably absent from the recent A.P.O.C. sale, and probably would have dominated the fairly lackluster sale we just finished a few days ago as this newest sword in the series has easily become the most popular in the A.P.O.C. line up:

Hanwei also added in some previously unavailable Tinker Pearce designed medieval swords back into the mix, including the Great Sword of War and the Bastard sword and Bastard Sword with fuller:

But most notably, we start the month with a new entry from Kingston Arms that may well be the most authentic and best made affordable production Claymore ever seen – the aptly named, Kingston Arms Scottish Claymore:

Seeing the writing on the wall for the sword industry this year, Kingston Arms have opted to use a more inexpensive to work with steel – rather than 9260 spring steel (which is used on all the other Kingston Arms swords to date) they have opted for 65mn Spring Steel. But this means that this sword is the first in their medieval line up to be able to be offered for sub $300 (MSRP is $389, but by squeezing our margins we can bring it to you for just $274.99).

Awesome value, and as functional as they come and then some.

Final Days of the March Madness Sale

Our current MEGA sale on the APOC Tactical Line of 9260 Spring Steel blades is coming to an end. And along with it, several other heavily discounted swords from other brands such as Kingdom of Arms, Kingston Arms and Dragon King..

All the specials end in just a little over 48 hours – and as we have so many other sales going on right now on the HOT SPECIALS page, we have listed all the time sensitive ones HERE on the SBG Sword Store’s Homepage..

Don’t miss out..
