I've never heard of them so if I were making a purchase I wouldn't buy from them. But that's just me and I'm a sample size of 1 so don't make your decision just yet.

Probably not, I would say. To start with, they seem to have several sites with slightly different URLs and layouts, which already sets off all kinds of alarm bells in my head... Prices that much lower than elsewhere are also inherently suspicious, unless it's a temporary sale.

Hi everyone! My Question : Is www.swords24.eu a trustworthy shop ? They have a sword that i REALLY REALLY want but it seems to be quite cheep (about half of what i´ve seen it elsewhere) If something seems too good to be true, it usually is something to pass by. Your first sword will be far more expensive if you have to absorb a loss because you suspended your good judgement and suspicion because you were greedy / impatient, you will not be happy.

I’m not 100% sure, but I think Andi the barvarian linked this in a post awhile back. Would have to go back through posts to find it. I don’t know if he’s purchased anything from them. I found them a couple of years ago looking for a hanwei tactical wakizashi. At the time they still had some in stock but I couldn’t afford it at the time.

Holger got two rare Windlass models from them some years ago; no problems, very good comm (they stated the swords are rusty and if thats OK, they gave discount!) but they do not really have anything special. Poland shop.

No, I don't know them or had ever bought from them. The Hanwei Tac Wak can be bought from battlemerchant.com in Germany.

Found battle merchant same time I found swords eu24 doing a deep dive search for hanwei tac wak and both were in stock at the time. Just checked battlemerchent and they are out of stock. Have been for a year or so. No worries though, bought two second hand off eBay last year.

They have a sword that i REALLY REALLY want but it seems to be quite cheep (about half of what i´ve seen it elsewhere) I'm from italy and i bought the Jaggermace. It arrived in less than a week and i'm very happy with it, i will buy again. So yes, it's legit.

Hi everyone! My Question : Is www.swords24.eu a trustworthy shop ? They have a sword that i REALLY REALLY want but it seems to be quite cheep (about half of what i´ve seen it elsewhere) Hi,
I am owner of www.swords24.eu and I just found this thread by accident and I see that many of you have doubts whether the store is legal and the prices are too good to be true. We are a small family business with our own warehouse space so we do not have to spend money on storage space, employees, advertising, etc. which allows us to lower prices, some products were purchased some time ago and are still in stock so some prices are more competitive, others less. Someone wrote about our many similar websites, they were once created for SEO purposes and to reach different target groups with different products, currently these old websites serve as entrances for old browsers only. If you have any doubts about your order, you can always send an email and ask for a real photo of the product before placing your order.

Welcome to the forum. I see that you are a vendor and would like to call your attention to our ‘Manufacturers and Vendors Talk’ board.
