As I'm sure I've mentioned before, these have never been my favourite type of swords. That said, this is a very nice design non the less and as always, I appriciate anything that looks different or unusual. :)

(Now make the Markgraf, dammit!)

Hey Chad, thanks for those great brass relief shots! It's great to see different examples all in one place.

On a side note I absolutely LOVE the sword of St. Casilda! That is a beautifully proportioned sword!

I definitely agree with Nathan about the guard being my favorite part. It always amazes me how the subtle shaping influences a sword's aesthetic appeal; it's really what separates the Albions like the Chevalier, Templar, and Knight from their competitors.

I do wonder, as they did when the half wire grip was introduced, plan to offer this grip on some of the other swords.
