As the month draws to a close, so does our massive 10-15% sale on the medieval and European sword lines from Clyde Hollis’s Kingdom of Arms and the Asian sword collection from Frenchie Jin’s Dragon King:
Don’t miss out, when the sale is over we need to do some additional upward price adjustments for Dragon King especially, so this is almost certainly one of the last times you will see prices anywhere near as low as they are right now..
Chris Palmer at Scorpion Swords has once again brought two new swords to his now quite extensive list of affordable beater swords based on history and the works of fiction.
The first is a fully functional replica of an ancient Thracian sword, the fearsome Rhomphaia – a sword/pole arm hybrid that was used with great effect against the ancient Greeks and Romans (indeed, it was the awesome cutting power of this blade that forced the ONLY documented change/upgrade to Roman armor – requiring some extra reinforcing bars in their helmets!).
Just one look at this beast of a blade and you can see why such an adjustment might well have been needed!
And for fans of fiction and unique fantasy blades, the ‘Mummy Sword’ of Ardeth Bay from the Mummy Returns movie is a blade that has been crying out for a decent and fully functional replica to be made: and Chris’s tribute to this movie sword is a very faithful and good one that Ardeth would have been proud to carry into battle.
Even though it is a fantasy piece, it is engineered based on solid principles and can deliver a great deal of downward cutting power with its optimized, gracefully curving edge.
Both are available here in Scorpion Swords section of our site for a VERY reasonable $289.99 – which is truly great value for hand made in the USA, almost indestructible sword like these.
Always great to see some new and unique affordable swords hit the market – especially in these times when new swords are few and far between..
The deals keep getting crazier – fully restocked and ready to fly off the shelves, the ENTIRE range of Frenchie Jin’s Dragon King Swords are available with a 10-15% discount across the board until the end of February and while stocks last.
No coupon code is necessary as the discount is baked in to the (already heavily discounted) price, so all you need to do is have a look for the model that you like the most and grab yourself a bargain while this sale (and stock levels) are available.
Need we say more? Check out 24 models of blade with the discount applied below:
We hit the ground running in February with new hot special offers on three awesome swords from Kingston Arms, Dragon King and A.P.O.C. Tactical starting with our best deal yet on the extremely popular Gus Trim designed 9260 Spring Steel Type XIV arming sword:
Normally this medieval arming sword is sold for $349.99 (MSRP is actually $500) but from now until the end of the month and while stocks last you can grab it for our BEST PRICE EVER of just $279.99..
Talk about a bargain!
Following hot on its heels we have something for lovers of Japanese weaponry – the classic arrow head themed Fletching Katana from Dragon King:
With a high quality differentially hardened 65mn Spring Steel blade, buffalo horn kojiri and kurikata on the saya, custom made Copper/Nickel alloy fittings and tight, light brown cotton ito over real rayskin it ticks every box for a practical and attractive dojo cutter and is marked down from our usual low price of $349.99 (MSRP also $500) to just $299.99 giving you a $200 saving from the manufacturer direct price:
And last but not at all least, a bargain for fans of Tactical style swords, the re-imagination of the medieval one handed broadsword, the Survival Broadsword:
Once again the MSRP on this one is $219 which is not a bad price considering its modern 9260 monotempered blade and Molle compatible fiberglass sheathe. At our everyday low price of $175.95 it’s quite a bargain, but it is currently on special for (Wait for it) a mere $134.99!!
All of these specials are valid until the end of February and while stocks last, so grab yourself a bargain and save a small fortune on these cool fully functional sword designs.
While there are many signs that 2023 is going to be a tough year for the sword industry, at least one of the bulwark manufacturers – Paul Chen’s Hanwei Forge – starts the year almost fully stocked and with more models of swords currently available now than at anytime in the last 3 years..
How long the most popular models will be available of course remains to be seen, but here are some of our top picks from the recent restock that savy sword buyers will snap up while they are available.
A true beast of a sword with a whopping 48″ blade and 21″ handle for just $359.99 gets you a whole lot of steel for a bargain price. No wonder it is never in stock for long..
True value at just $297.95 this classic hand and a half sword is very well built and powerful and a fantastic design that they got right the first time..
The bargains just keep on coming for Hanwei’s medieval line, and after many months of being absent we are delighted to announce the restock of the Tinker Great sword of War, another big and powerful, well made and well designed sword from the Tinker Pearce/Hanwei collaboration. Crazy good value at just $279.99.
If you love cutting swords and haven’t tried a good Dao before, THIS is the sword you need to check out. You will truly be surprised and delighted how easily it cuts with just one hand, and if you are a martial artist, you MUST have this sword in your collection. You will NOT be disappointed..
This is one that is rarely in stock for anything more than a few days at a time, partially because not many are made but primarily because they are easily one of the best value for money and truly unique swords to grace modern sword armories. Highly recommended.
This is just the tip of the iceberg of what is on offer right now at Hanwei, so take a look and enjoy the literal smorgasbord of quality swords freshly restocked and waiting to add to your collection:
