This one took a bit of wrangling – but oh so worth the extra effort..

For this month we can offer history buffs and WWII enthusiasts the opportunity to own a fully functional replica Gunto Japanese Officers Sword no matter what your budget or your tastes..

The first sword is a new product by Ryujin Swords – a T10 tool steel solid bodied blade mounted in basic Gunto style fittings of a type 98 sword produced from 1938 until the end of the war.

A steal at just $199.99

Priced to sell at just $199.99 and includes a free display box and budget cleaning kit, only 9pcs are available – and they are sure to sell out fast..

The second sword is one we released last month but, despite many people expressing interest, no-one actually took advantage of the special introductory price offer..

Down from $1000 to just $699

However this time around, after extensive negotiations with the Master Smith, he has agreed to make it available one last time with a whopping 30% discount.. But the caveat is, after the 21st of July it will be discontinued and removed from sale..!

So no matter what your budget or the level of sword that you like to collect, if you like top value for money WWII replica swords, one of these deals is for you. But both, one way or another, are ending VERY soon…

 

Hanwei/Cas Iberia Restock!

It is that time of year again, when Cas Iberia – arguably the largest distributor of swords in the world – gets in a container load or two of functional swords from their suppliers..

And this time around, a ton of popular swords that have not been restocked in ages are once again available to purchase.

Probably the most popular one, and the one that ALWAYS sells out the fastest, is the amazing Tinker Pearce Longsword (pictured below).

Insanely good value at just $229.99

Honesty, we really should raise the price on these as clearly demand far outstrips supply – but that’s not the SBG way, so you just need to get in quick.

Another couple of fast sellers are the awesome Ninjato replicas – the Iga and the Kouga Ninjato by Paul Chen..

And then there is one that I honestly can’t remember how many years it has been since it was restocked – so long that I pretty much thought it had been discontinued – and that is the Ox-Tail Dao, a very nifty Chinese Broadsword with brass fittings and amazing cutting action for such a low priced, single handed blade..

Priced to sell at just $199.99

And then there is the amazingly historically accurate Hanwei Cawood Sword, the super tough Claymore, the Mercenary Sword (which I recently discovered is actually a rare and quite accurate replica of the hard to find Oakeshott Type XX Longsword) – all of these to be had for well under $300..

Or how about the classic Shinto Katana, or the L6 Bainite Praying Mantis Katana, or the – well, okay – you get the idea.. Just excited to see a lot of these swords restocked again. 🙂

And if you are too, well – check them all out here..

Exclusive to SBG – now when you order one of the ancient or fantasy inspired almost indestructible hand made in the USA swords from Scorpion Swords you get four new custom options for each and every sword in the line up!

Don’t like the black blade of our SBG designed Tactical Ko Katana? No problem! Customize it and select either a 2 toned black and steel color or just plain ‘silver’ (steel). Or want to change the black Mircarta wooden handle to bloodwood, walnut or maple? No problem there either you can do that too!

How about a lanyard hole to attach a lanyard? With or without, its up to you (Lanyard not included).

And the best part is, all the customization options are FREE (and no hidden price rise to cover it either)! Just select what you would like using the dropdown selections when you order and have it made YOUR way..!

And Speaking of Scorpion Swords..

Their Ancient Khopesh Sword of the Pharaoh recently made a guest appearance on ‘Elementary’ by CBS starring Johnny Lee Miller as Sherlock Holmes and Lucy Liu as ‘Watson’.

They actually requested that the sword be sent to them unsharpened for their story line (an option you can select now too!) – but what they ended up doing with it surprised everyone..

See the highlights from its ‘cameo’ role in the video below.

Now imagine what the damage would have been like if they used the regular sharpened one..

A couple of new hot specials

A couple of new hot specials to start July off with – and as the weather heats up, so do the deals..

The first one is a Crecy price on the Kingston Arms Crecy Sword – a stunning Hollow Ground blade with peened pommel and leather bound, wood core scabbard.

Crecy War Sword - Sharp by Kingston Arms

Crecy War Sword – Sharp by Kingston Arms

Not only is it historically plausible, but this powerful cut and thrust sword is extremely well made and a totally Crecy deal at$100 off our everyday, already heavily discounted prices (the exact same sword is for sale here at $439 from the manufacturers website).

And lovers of Katana have not been forgotten, with below wholesale pricing on the beautiful War Horse Katana by Dragon King.

Last time we offered this sword at $274.99 it proved extremely popular – here is what one reviewer said:

For the current sale price ($274.99 in Dec 2017) this thing is a steal. Gorgeous fittings — better than average for the on-sale price point — and a sharp, differentially hardened, tool steel blade. Five stars on sale; maybe four stars if you pay full price.

It has been 6 months since it was last sold at this price, and who knows when – if ever – it may be offered at this price again. So if you missed out last time, don’t miss out this time – only until the end of July and while stocks last.

There are few sword makers as well respected these days as the Legendary Angus Trim. His swords are highly sought after on the secondary sword market and increasingly rare.

So when lovers of medieval swords get a chance to grab a genuine Atrim, hand made by Gus in the USA, it is very much a case of first in first served..

Well, this is one such opportunity.

Presenting, a limited edition release of Gus’s take on the Oakeshott Type XVIa – configured as a true bastard sword that can be wielded easily in one hand, but truly comes alive when the second hand is brought into play,.

Priced to sell at $1200 with FREE SHIPPING only a handful have been made, and once they are sold out, well – who knows when they will be coming back..
