Maybe the Best Model on Offer

It is (near notoriously) hard to find HEMA broadswords, and when you do, they’re often prohibitively expensive. This model is comparable to one of the custom makes sold by Castille Armory, but at a fraction of the price. The weight is amazing, and the baskethilt itself is beautifully intricate and accurate. There were some small blemishes of rust on the blade out of the box, but nothing a quick treatment can’t fix I’d wager. I look forward to showing off this unit of a sword at my Cateran broadsword club.
