D'oh! Kind of stupid that I actually loaded up the image to study it, but I figured it had to be an issue of detail being lost in the shadow.

I am still convinced they get their blades from India. Too many similarities between their swords and the India knockoff companies. |

People: clean this topic up from here on out. There's being critical of something, and then there's just plain being nasty. Sometimes it's in the way you write it. |

Kirk, how long ago did you purchase this sword? As Rob mentioned earlier, someone representing
Darksword claimed that they had improved their tangs and that they were now much beefier. If memory serves correctly this was a few monthes ago. I've been waiting to hear from anyone who has bought on of their swords recently. |

Not to defend or denounce Darksword, but the pommel design on that "gothic two-hander" isn't wholly Albion's. It is a historical pommel, and I have one on a Arm Art that was probably produced a year or more before Albion conceptualized the Regent :P
Now, looking at those photos a few posts up, I can say that the tang is waaaay too narrow and the guard is greatly oversized. DA should have left this one in the oven a bit longer, it wasn't fully cooked. |

The sword illuminates the artistic creativity of the time, resulting from the Gothic artistic revolution in the arts. |
