    Hey Richard Simmons when the south rises again this is what we are rockin to the front! LOL

    Its pricy but she is a bad little piece of steel...and we all know the Templars were some bad dudes. Now only if I can find a woman as sexy as this sword.

    I like the looks of that. Wonder if it's a user or strictly for the wall?

    No its the real deal. Albion and Arms and Armor are all about the real deal. It is battle ready beyond most modern battle ready swords. That thing there would probably turn a modern kevlar vest into chop soy with a quickness.

    From what I have looked into, Albion makes really nice battle ready swords.

    They do make great swords...here is a copy of a 1200's era German Sword. Very nice blade it is!

    Classy choice! You should swing a couple of these around though. With a blade that long you may like a "hand & a half" length grip more. Better balance and more comfortable to hold. Plus some cool options in terms of sword tricks like gripping with one hand and sliding it down to the pommel for a surprise extra 6" of trusting range.

    Did you watch that swordmaking documentary I posted for you yet? You'd dig it the most!

    I am constantly being told to be quiet.

    Yes!! It was very good I enjoyed it a lot. Thanks for sharing! Its amazing that some of those techniques were done back in the 8th and 9th century.
