Nice review Dave, I do always enjoy reading your historical introductions!
Looking at the Kreig and the Templar side by side I think I like the hilt on the Kreig better, the shape looks like it would feel nicer in the hand in both single handed and two handed handling (too many uses of the word hand there!).
One note is that the pommel is more akin to the Type J, as the chamfers leading from the outer disc to the inner are hollowed out rather than the straight transition you'd see in a Type H or Type I for that matter.
Other than that love it, I've been looking forward to this review since you received the sword, and I've not been disappointed! A +1 to you!
