Maybe all of the scottish stuff being on sale will mean we get a basket hilt this weekend. Or maybe even that braveheart greatsword they have.

I have this dirk...it's like someone cut down a broken Scottish broadsword into a dirk. I love it...this is a great, great deal.

I picked up one of these and the blade is not bad at all. Hilt is nice. Thing about MRL is you can have 2-swords of the same model and the blades can be different. I have had this happen where I sold or gave away some and picked up another on the deal of the day.

Have seen this blade remounted with Viking furniture. I picked mine up on the DotD awhile back. For the price, I like it.

I have one too and consider it a keeper. As Bill says it's a little heavy but I like forward curved guards and wheel pommels so it has the look. There actually was a review on this sword years ago by member Ye Olde Gaffer. Being that the SBG store store was selling this sword at the time, the review was moved to that page. It's linked here: www.sword-buyers-guide.com/classic-medieval-sword.html
