There is a sword-only option, but it's not worth it. You can get get 5 swords for 480 jewels (96 jewels per sword), or you can get 3 swords and 2 shoes for 300 jewels (100 jewels per sword, but with two extra shoes). The difference in jewels between the two is miniscule, so might as well score the free shoes with your purchase and go find some extra bonus areas with them.
