Written by the company
We are a family‑run sword‑making workshop hailing from Longquan 龍泉, China, a legendary place widely known as the “City of Swords” that boasts an uninterrupted sword‑forging history stretching over 2,600 years and enjoys worldwide fame. Our sword‑making craft has also been officially recognized as part of the National Intangible Cultural Heritage, representing the precious traditional skills of our nation. Our family’s legacy in sword crafting began all the way back in 1892, carrying forward a profound tradition that has lasted for well over a century. Holding sincere reverence for history and traditional culture, we have always stayed dedicated to handcrafting authentic traditional swords, faithfully preserving and applying ancient techniques that have been passed down through generations for more than two thousand years. From the selection of raw materials to the final completion of a sword, every piece goes through more than 20 elaborate and rigorous procedures. These include hand forging, manual shaping, careful hand polishing, precise filing, detailed refining, delicate intricate carving, exquisite copper inlay, cold forging, professional quenching, and careful clay‑tempering, among many other delicate steps. Our original domestic brand, CHEN'S SWORDS 1892 (陳氏劍莊), has built a solid and respected reputation across China. Meanwhile, our international brand, Spartan Blades Club, has established a loyal customer base and maintained an outstanding reputation across 43 countries around the globe. We specialize in crafting a wide range of swords, including authentic Chinese traditional swords, classic Japanese samurai swords, elegant European swords, as well as custom‑made swords based on original and unique designs. When you hold a Spartan Blades Club sword in your hands, you will feel as if you are transported into a world filled with ancient legends, tracing back to the mysterious and glorious origins of Longquan, China. The story of our brand began in 1892, a time when Longquan, with its 2,600‑year history of sword making, stood as a fascinating cradle of the world’s finest blade‑making craftsmanship. Longquan swords are famous worldwide for their “unyielding sharpness, perfect harmonious balance, captivating cold‑steel luster, and elaborate decorative details”, and have become globally celebrated treasures that symbolize profound Chinese cultural heritage. These swords are far more than just weapons; they carry and embody the core spirit of honor, pride, and inner strength deeply valued by warriors throughout history. We firmly believe that quality is always the top priority. Every single sword from Spartan Blades Club is carefully handcrafted by highly experienced and skilled blacksmiths, using only the finest and highest‑grade materials available. These swords are not just practical and functional weapons; they are also exquisite works of art, representing the highest level of artistic innovation and craftsmanship, and serving as a true tribute to the ancient art of swordsmithing. At S.B.C, we strive to uphold the same respectful attitude toward tradition and craftsmanship. We deeply understand that there are no shortcuts to achieving true mastery. There is always space for improvement, and there is always new knowledge and skill to learn in the pursuit of perfection. That is why we always put forth our utmost effort and dedication into every single blade we create. We hold sincere respect for every client, profound respect for the precious materials that form an exceptional blade, and the genuine respect that a true artisan holds for everything around him. Our brand slogan is “Memento Mori, Para Gloriam”, which translates to “Remember that you will die, for glory.” To live and pass away with honor is a fundamental belief for anyone with a martial spirit. That is why all our blades are 100% fully functional and genuinely battle‑ready, featuring full‑tang construction, premium high‑quality steel, and carefully assembled, durable components. For us, this is simply the right and only way to create a real sword. We understand deeply that a sword is much more than just a tool or weapon; it is a living testament to long‑standing tradition, rich culture, and profound history. Our mission is to make sure that every Spartan Blades Club sword inherits and carries forward these timeless values, skillfully connecting the ancient art of sword making with the modern world. By choosing Spartan Blades Club, you hold in your hands an exquisite masterpiece—both a refined work of art, a powerful symbol of tradition, and a precious carrier of history.

Buy my katana sword from "Spartan Blades Club . Com " Katana is excellent , very sharp and strong, on that katana sword you can see the person who made that put in all they heart. First time see them in tiktok and try to get one I'm never expected that good quality. Can't see any bad points. I can tell anyone that what people see on tiktok and reality is very big deference that katana looks 100 time better. I'm normaly not riten any reviews to any company because no one perfect, but this company is one of them who is perfect. The reason why I'm riten this review is, I'm spending big time to find any bad points or poor quality, and I CAN'T find any . Thank you so much "Spartan Blades Club.com " I'm definitely buy another one sword . Trust pilot needs make some thing like platinum star for this company . I recommend Spartan Blades Club.com tu every body .

Dear Gatis,
I'm absolutely thrilled by your review. Your kind words have truly made my day!
At Spartan Blades Club (CHEN'S SWORDS 1892), our family has been dedicated to the art of sword-making for generations. Every katana we create is a reflection of our deep-seated passion and unwavering commitment to craftsmanship. We're elated that you could sense the love and effort we put into your katana, and that it has met your expectations in terms of sharpness and strength.
I understand how daunting it can be to make a purchase based on a TikTok discovery. The fact that our katana surpassed your expectations in reality means the world to us. Your detailed search for flaws and your inability to find any is the highest praise we could receive.
We're honored that you've decided to break your usual habit of not writing reviews for companies. Your decision to recommend us to everyone and your suggestion for a "platinum star" on Trustpilot is incredibly motivating. It's customers like you who inspire us to keep pushing the boundaries and delivering the best possible products.
I can't wait for you to add another sword to your collection. We'll make sure that your next purchase is just as special, if not more so, than the first. If you have any questions or preferences for your next sword, please don't hesitate to reach out.

You get what you buy.
You get what you buy. I May not be the right person to confirm quality regarding the aplicability, but has a colection, ornament piece is exactly what is expected.
For bad review I can say that is a tremendously borucratical forms to fill, besides the availability to go to the police station several times to be able to complete the importation and the customs clearance.
Increasing VAT that are not included in the price, as requested on nowadays laws.

Dear friend Tiago,
I truly appreciate your honest feedback. It's great to hear that the ornamental piece but also a fully-functional katana in your collection met your expectations, which is always our aim when crafting these items.
I do empathize with the difficulties you faced during the importation process. The complex bureaucracy, multiple trips to the police station, and unforeseen VAT charges can be incredibly frustrating. These are issues that unfortunately lie outside of our direct control, as they're part of the international trade regulations that vary from place to place. However, we're constantly looking for ways to better support our customers through these challenges, such as providing more detailed import guidance.
If you have any further questions about your purchase, or if there's anything else we can do to enhance your experience with our products, please don't hesitate to let us know. We value your patronage and want to make sure that, despite the import hurdles, you're satisfied with your acquisition from us.
Best regards,

Spartan Blades Club is the real deal.
Depp and Grace are amazing. It’s so hard to find people you can actually trust nowadays especially on the internet. He answered every single question I had. He made sure any doubt I had was gone. And his customer service was 100% percent the best I’ve had. He didn’t just sell me a katana… I learned more about his art, the sword, and the culture. Which was very special to me. He made me a beautiful custom katana with everything I wanted. It was worth the 3 weeks I waited. When I finally got my sword, I was so impressed I didn’t even want to touch it. Spartan Blades club culture and tradition deserves the highest respect in my opinion. 1000% going to buy again.

In this digital age, building trust is no easy feat, and your trust in us means the world. I'm committed to ensuring every customer feels valued and informed, which is why I'm always eager to answer any questions and clear any doubts. Especially you were been so nice and kind to us!
Sharing the art, history, and culture behind our swords is a passion of mine. I'm delighted that you found it special, and that the custom katana we crafted for you lived up to your expectations. The three-week wait was a necessary part of creating a truly unique piece, and I'm glad it was worth it for you.
Your respect for our our culture and tradition is deeply appreciated. Our family has been nurturing these values for generations, and it's rewarding to see them resonate with our customers.

Is it good ?
Hi I have ordered 2 swords from them to the UK and now I will be telling you my experience which will be time, service and product
How long it took to deliver? (5/10)
My sword took around 26 days to get here and once the sword arrives in the UK it would be Parcelforce who will be delivering. I was told the average time it my get here is around 15 days however due to unfortunately circumstances it took longer than planned.
Service and communication (9/10)
You can contact them through WhatsApp or email however they are based in China so it may take them some time to respond and please be patient since English is not their first language (just in case you think I had a hard time communicating - No I did not but thought I should mention it. The service is really good because when I ordered the swords I was told that one of the sword is out of stock and so they offered a high grade sword to compensate it which have also gave details about as well which is really nice.
Product A.K.A the swords (9/10)
The swords comes with a sword bag, stand and certificate each and the blade itself it beautiful although I with the handle is longer but the sword is exactly how it describes.

Perfection
Depp and Grace worked hard to make sure I got EXACTLY what I asked them to make for me.
It is an unusual blade but the finish is perfect and the edges are razor sharp. Forget the paper cutting thing, you should have seen the blade when I was hacking a bone-in ham to ribbons.
I’m making a cane with a narrow (3/4”) razor sharp blade inside. Thank you Grace! (and it’s the name of the blade too)

These Blades are as Advertised
I bought several different blades from Depp at SBC for my first purchase, and I was blown away by the details. All 3 of my long swords and both of my short blades are AMAZING QUALITY!!
I've owned several blades before these, but I've never owned anything like the blades from Spartan Blades Club!! They are as advertised, and extremely well made and built to last!!
These are not just beautiful blades, they are fully functional, and I am honored to own something so well made!! These blades will definitely stand the test of time, and I will pass them on to my children.
The custom engraving definitely put these Magnificent Blades over the top!!
Thank you Depp and family!! My only concern is which blades to order next, or possibly a custom blade to add to my collection.
