Forge Direct and Project X are about 1\/3rd the size they were back in the day, closeouts on new items introduced only a few months ago &#8211; and not to freak you out, but it&#8217;s likely to get a whole lot worse..<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Respected high quality sword making company Kingdom of Arms, made by BCI in the Philippines for Clyde Hollis is sadly forced to reduce his line away from the more exotic blades to more generic sellers as they can&#8217;t afford to tie up the money into stock that only appeals to a certain few people (but when it DOES appeal, it&#8217;s the sword that they have been searching for)..<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These aren&#8217;t cheap, but they are made by proud Filipino craftsmen who are finding it increasingly difficult to continue their business, and no doubt in a few years time, these will all be as rare as hens teeth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">DISCONTINUED: <a href=\"https:\/\/sbg-sword-store.sword-buyers-guide.com\/product1181.html\"
