The Five Rings: The Story Behind Our Pandia Folder Collaboration with Tu Lam Media

Published: 2 days ago

The Five Rings Series is a collaboration between Spartan Blades and Tu Lam of Ronin Tactics, built around a shared respect for discipline, purpose, and the warrior mindset.

Drawing inspiration from Miyamoto Musashi’s The Book of Five Rings, the series explores the elements of Earth, Water, Fire, Wind, and Void—each representing a different principle of strategy, adaptability, and personal development.

In this video, Tu Lam and Spartan Blades co-founder Curtis Iovito explain the concept behind the series, the creative process, and how each expression was brought to life through the award-winning Pandia folding knife.
