Snake Eyes Sword from GI Joe


Something we have to talk about are some great movie swords that are available. We will talk about many of the different movie swords, so today, let’s talk about GI Joe and the Snake Eyes Sword shown in the picture (SA0280).

Snake Eyes is the code name of a member of the G.I. Joe team and much of his history and information, including his real name, and most everything else about him, has remained classified throughout all depictions of his origin. Snake Eyes is quiet in his movements and is a quick and deadly master of many martial arts as he is a full- fledged ninja master.

Snake Eyes has a quiet personality and usually wears what is best described as a black military type ninja bodysuit along with a balaclava and visor to cover his face, which was disfigured in a helicopter explosion. Of course, since then, Snake Eyes has had a lot of plastic surgery to repair the damage he had to his face, however, he still has a few scars left behind. His vocal cords however, could not be repaired after the deadly explosion.

A description of Snake Eyes out of his uniform, is that he is around six feet tall, with an athletic build, blond hair and blue eyes and of course has his Snake Eyes Sword! This sword is a 440 stainless steel unsharpened blade with partial serration and ninja emblem. There is a cast metal guard, a full tang with a poly grip handle and a speckled finish scabbard with a metal accent. This is a MUST HAVE for all the fans of Snake Eyes and the GI Joe movie!

Ryumon Samurai Swords


I couldn't go without doing a blog on these great swords by Ryumon! To start off, let's see what Ryumon means. The word Ryumon translates to erudite or reputable. See, I could stop there and you would know just what kind of manufacturer Ryumon is and how their swords are. Let's tell you a bit more about these sword though! (The Ryumon Phoenix Katana RY3201 is pictured to the left)

The Ryumon line has brought us several different beautiful pieces that compare with a lot of other very well known manufacturers out there. The Ryumon line has tried to stick to a solid quality of craftsmanship as best as they can and among the competitors, Ryumon is considered to be in the intermediate level by sword collectors. I feel that intermediate is very respectable and you get a really good quality sword for what you pay for.


These Ryumon Swords are made by master sword smiths that use old traditional methods of sword making along with some modern knowledge of today. This enables them to put forth a quality hand forged and folded, full tang Samurai Sword that is made of tough, medium or high quality carbon sharpened steel. Each of the Ryumon Swords is fully functional and battle ready and can be used in both full contact sparring matches as well as training.

The best part is that almost all the Ryumon Swords come with a Ryumon signature box, a sword bag and a maintenance kit. I LOVE getting all the extras in my purchase and with Ryumon you are getting a lot of bang for you buck, which is what I look for. Quality sword, affordable prices, and great extras included!
