Thanks to everyone who ordered during the Forge Direct Mega Sale – all the orders are being sent through to the forge as we speak and the Master Smiths are preparing to fire up the forge and put the hammer to the anvil..

And while the special prices and discounts may have ended, we have arranged special pricing on the new Forge Direct Asian Fantasy Sword line to help get the word out about this line and the associated Fantasy Sword Project we are working on.

One of the characters from the Fantasy Series, the Adept Denisia of Pomedica wielding the Sword of Peace and the Dragons Tongue

So for the time being, this new line is being offered with a 20% discount until further notice.

Hope you enjoy them, there really are some unique and interesting designs there.

Just a quick update – we just added a 8 new tsuba options to the Forge Direct Elite Custom Katana series as below, bringing the total number of tsuba options now up to 52.

Yes, we could have added more tsuba like some of the eBay sellers who cheap out using rather fragile zinc alloy tsuba – but for the Forge Direct Line only the best quality ones will do..

So you can rest assured that these not only look good, but they are solid, durable and the best quality they can be..

Forge Direct – the Relaunch and Mega Sale!

Several months ago, changes at the forges in China forced us to withdraw our line of Forge Direct swords to retool and regroup.

And so, after several months on hiatus, we are delighted to bring back Forge Direct with a vengeance – and a mega sale to go along with it!

Yes, that is right – the forge has offered us a huge discount to accumulate some orders over the Chinese New Year period ready for them to get to work on from the 23rd of February when they resume work (and the best part is, not only is it one of the best seasons for sword forging in China, but the master smiths are fully refreshed from their break and it is this time of year that they do some of their BEST work!).

But it gets even better, because – like with Scorpion Swords – a new line of Asian Fantasy style swords has just been released under the Legendary Swords banner!

Here is one of my favorites, and also one of the most affordable – the Dragon Tongue, a folded and hand forged sturdy blade with fantastical Dragon themed hilt – normally $549.99 but just $412.49 with FREE WORLDWIDE SHIPPING!

So what are you waiting for?

Scratch and Dent Sale

We just added four one off scratch and dent/used swords to the Hot Specials section that are up for grabs – two from the Black Dragon Forge and two from Project X.

Here are the swords currently available:

SanMai Laminated Black Dragon Forge Katana

This one has the works – leather ito wrap, rayskin wrapped saya, Sanmai lamination and all black fittings, but seasonal weather changes caused the wooden tsuka to shrink slightly, so it had to be permanently attached. Price for it as new would be $654.99 but available to one lucky, quick person for just $369.99 with FREE SHIPPING to Canada or the USA.

Last Black Dragon Elite

This is the VERY LAST of the SBG Black Dragon Elites – they cannot be made this way again as both the fittings and the Mother of Pearl Saya are no longer available to us. It does have a couple of minor issues – like the first sword it cannot be disassembled and the Mother of Pearl inlay is a bit blurry/imperfect…

But for the $369.99 price tag (and also with FREE SHIPPING to the USA and Canada) it is quite the bargain, and as you can see from the pics, the blade is of course, absolutely stunning..

And then there are the two swords from Project X – both rare and pretty much impossible to get anytime soon.

The first is a Feathersteel Jian with some minor cosmetic imperfections of the fittings that was remade for the original customer. Normal price, $1,600 – but this last one is available for less than half price at $750..

And then there is a Hybrid Wakizashi/Ko Katana that was lightly used and has been returned, a sword that is no longer available to purchase, so this will be the last chance to EVER get this particular design – for $200 less than the original purchase price with NO waiting..

Only one of each sword is available, and once they are gone they are gone for good.
