Check out this video by IGN featuring our Longclaw destroying some watermelons.
Also, we have less than 100 of these left now. They are flying off the shelf. If you want to buy the book Longclaw, you’re running out of time. When sold out it’ll go to the land of always winter, never to return. Ice will follow in a month or two as well.
Our A Song of Ice and Fire Longclaw sword of Jon Snow, coming with a COA personally autographed by George R.R. Martin, is almost permanently sold out. This was a limited edition of 2500 pcs and they’re almost all gone. We’re thinking sometime in July, August at the latest, but these warnings tend to spur sales spikes, so it could go quicker.
If you have wanted this, but have put off ordering, we highly recommend you order just as soon as you can.
Also, we still have the special package available whereby if you buy the Night’s Watch Dagger set at the same time you will be sent matching low numbers, while supplies last of course.
The Night’s Watch Dagger Set aka “Beyond the Wall Survival Kit” will start shipping tommorow.
We are pleased to announce we have acquired exclusive rights to produce weapon and armor prop replicas from the HBO® series Game of Thrones®. We will begin manufacturing these items while continuing to work on the “A Song of Ice and Fire” book replicas we already produce. We are very excited about the ability to pull from the designs the prop designers on the show have come up with. We have already started work on the Bran Assassination Dagger, the Hound’s Helm, a Stark Infantry Shield, and Robb Stark’s Sword, which we hope to have out by the end of the year. Many are likely wondering if we plan on producing show versions of the book swords we have already done, the answer to that is yes, we intend on eventually doing that.
Our Night’s Watch Dragonglass Dagger Set aka the “Beyond the Wall Survival Kit” will go on sale this Saturday. More images will be posted between now and then.
The kit includes a real obsidian dagger and arrowheads, sheath and belt pouch, and is mostly made in the USA.
Serendipitously a matching regular Longclaw case has surfaced for the Damascus Ice case we’ve got on top. This means we have 3 matching sets available. 106, 107, and 108. So the next 3 people to order both regular Longclaw and Damascus Ice will get a matching set. This is not something we can normally do, very rare for this to happen. If you ordered one or the other this weekend (meaning it hasn’t shipped yet) and would rather have a matching set, order the other part of it and message us that you want the set. Just the first three who do it get the set of course, because we only have the three.
Happy New Year everyone. To celebrate we’re dropping the price on Needle $20 to $170. This will be a permanent price drop.
The Night’s Watch Obsidian Dagger Set (aka beyond the wall survival kit) will be going on sale sometime in the next month. Stay tuned for more details on that.
All Damascus Ice preorders have shipped, some (about 5) haven’t been picked up yet, but they’ll be picked up Monday. So it is now in stock and ready to ship for any new orders. For those who have already ordered, you should be seeing activity on your tracking numbers.
This weekend is the last weekend you can order and still get delivery by Christmas for regular ground shipping, after Monday people out west will need to pay expedited shipping, after Tuesday people in the south or east will need to, and after Wednesday everyone will (the midwest being the last area). You can call us or email to get expedited shipping quotes.
Finally, if you did order Damascus Ice, please be careful when it arrives. The blade is coated with a protective oil, which will stain your clothes and the blade’s grip if you got it on there. The very first thing you should do is remove the excess oil from the blade with a rag.
EW has broken the news that the first season of Game of Thrones will be available on DVD March 6th 2012. You can preorder it now on Amazon.com.
The Damascus Ice shipment has finally cleared customs. We expect to start shipping them to customers a week from today. It should make it to everyone worldwide in time for Christmas, barring any further delays or circumstances (storms, strikes, really slow customs people, etc). These are still available for purchase, by the way, it has not yet sold out.
Finally, GRRM has given final approval on the Night’s Watch Dragonglass Dagger prototype. Picture is below:
This is a “north of the wall survival kit” set that includes the dagger (which is hand made in the US of real obsidian), a leather sheath, a belt pouch, 5 obsidian arrowheads, certificate of authenticity, and one or two surprises. All will be enclosed in a wooden box. It will sell for between $200 and $250 and be a limited edition of 2500. It should be out in January, preorders will start in a couple weeks.
Christmas this year is on a Sunday, which makes the last day for some deliveries Friday the 23rd. International orders may still get Christmas delivery ordering as late as the 9th, but it is pushing it. Domestic orders for regular ground shipping should order by the 18th, possibly 17th if you’re way far from the Midwest, such as Southern California. We have the capability of shipping faster both domestically and internationally, but it is expensive. So if you’re late, give us a call or send an email, we’ll work up a shipping quote for you using faster methods. For domestic orders you could order as late as the 23rd and get next day delivery – if you’re willing to pay for it, and for international probably the 18th or 19th would be the hard limit, again if you’re willing to pay for it.
