If you’ve been waiting for something truly extraordinary from Bugei, this is it.
We’re beyond excited to announce the arrival of the Mukade Ni Katana — a sword so rare, so refined, and so elite that only 15 will ever exist. This isn’t just a katana. It’s the result of a dream team collaboration: designed by James and Christopher Williams, featuring custom shibuichi fittings by Roman Urban, and hand-forged by Ron Chen in his private forge using SN490 steel—known for its strength, resilience, and whispering hamon.
Every inch of this blade screams luxury and martial pedigree. From the katatemaki wrap in brown Japanese cotton to the Sun Tzu-engraved menuki and buffalo horn accents, it’s a weapon worthy of legends. Whether you’re a collector, practitioner, or connoisseur of the sword arts, the Mukade Ni is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to own a piece of living history.
They won’t last long. See the Mukade Ni Katana here and claim yours before they vanish into myth.
In an industry where prices keep climbing and quality often feels like an afterthought, the new IRONWOLF by Ryujin line is a breath of fresh air—and a howl in the dark. Developed in close collaboration with the SBG team, these swords are designed to be functional, historically inspired, and shockingly affordable.
Each model is priced at just $199.95 with free shipping, and quantities are extremely limited.
This is not mass-market fluff or marking spin and BS. These are real swords with sharpened spring steel blades, peened construction, and historically grounded designs. Whether you’re a reenactor, martial artist, or backyard cutter, the IRONWOLF line offers serious steel at a price that’s practically unheard of – until now that is.
Here are the first 3 – serious WMA (Western Martial Arts) grade beaters – each one featuring a hard wearing, sharpened 65mn spring steel blade with steel fittings, wax cord wrapped wood core hilts and peened pommels:
The Bordersteel
A hand-and-a-half sword with a broad blade and extended grip, perfect for both cutting and thrusting. It’s the most versatile of the trio, ideal for reenactors, martial artists, and backyard cutters alike.
Compact and aggressive, this bastard sword excels in close quarters. Its shorter blade and longer grip make it a favorite for those who want speed and control without sacrificing power.
And for those who walk the wilder paths of sword collecting, we’re also introducing Rogier’s Spellblade from Elden Ring (we originally named it differently, but at the end of the day – it is what it is!) —a bold, functional fantasy design priced at just $149.95 with free shipping! It’s the perfect add-on for those who want something a little more savage in their collection:
These swords won’t last long. Once this first batch is gone, it may be weeks—or longer—before they return. So if you’ve been waiting for a chance to own a real sword without paying a premium, this is it.
The IRONWOLF line is now live—ready to ship, ready to cut, and ready to earn its place in your collection.
When the skies darken and the winds howl, you’ll want a blade that doesn’t flinch. Enter the Breeden Derecho, the latest beast in APOC’s Fallout Series—designed by none other than Jason Breeden, whose survival blades are as no-nonsense as they come.
This isn’t just a sword. It’s a machete-saber hybrid forged from 1075 high carbon steel, with a full tang that’s thick enough to laugh off abuse and long enough to swing with authority. Whether you’re clearing brush, splitting kindling, or fending off mutant raccoons (we’re not judging), the Derecho’s 18¼” blade is built to deliver.
The handle? Canvas micarta with APOC Red G10 liners, pierced for lanyards and sculpted for grip that won’t quit—even when your palms are slick with sweat or rain. And when it’s time to move, the Molle-compatible Kydex sheath keeps it close and ready.
At just under 2 lbs, the Derecho is surprisingly nimble for its size—perfect for one-handed strikes or two-handed control when things get serious. It’s a blade that feels like it belongs in a wasteland, but works just as well on a weekend camping trip.
So whether you’re prepping for the apocalypse or just want a blade that looks like it could survive one, the Breeden Derecho is here. Brutal. Beautiful. Ready.
This month, we’re turning up the heat with a lineup of blades that blend history, craftsmanship, and tactical edge. Whether you’re a collector, practitioner, or just sword-curious, these specials are forged to impress.

After a long silence and a few false starts, CAS Hanwei has roared back to life—and the Raimie XL Katana is the thunderclap that marks its revival.
Named after the Japanese word for thunder (“raimie”), this katana is more than just a new release—it’s a statement. Built on the proven XL Series blade geometry, the Raimie XL is designed for heavy cutting, with a steep edge angle that makes short work of tatami mats, bamboo, and other traditional targets. Whether you’re a backyard cutter or a dojo practitioner, this sword delivers the kind of performance that made Hanwei a household name among sword enthusiasts.
The 28¼” blade is forged from 1566 steel and hardened to a razor-sharp 60 HRC at the edge, with a softer spine for resilience. Its fittings echo the storm: silver habaki, menuki, and seppa contrast against a black tsuka-ito and white faux same, while the textured black saya resists fingerprints and smudges. The tsuka is double-pegged and fully removable, with synthetic components over a wood core—keeping the sword durable and affordable.
Priced at $399 (but on sale at SBG for just $339!), the Raimie XL Katana is not just a new product—it’s a signal that Hanwei is back, and serious about cutting..
