Just saw these on the Albion facebook page, thought you all might like to see if you haven't already. I'm not really liking the pommel but the overall design looks great! Attachments:

I'd love to see how many tatami mats it could go through, and it seems like quite a good price as far as Albions go (Albion Europe prices anyway).

I WANT THIS SWORD!
Sorry, I don't mean to shout, but it's the "new" design I've most looked forward to since they posted the line drawings.

Beyond sad I was not able to get a pre-order for this sword... this is far and away my favorite Albion.

This is now up on Albions site, though I an a little unsure if that is the best color to promote sales of this fine looking sword, would be nice with an antiqued finish with a half wire grip.

Hello Folks,
Some of you may recognize me from myArmoury. I thought I'd stop by to check the place out. I received my Maximilian about two weeks ago and it's an impressive sword, one of the best of its kind on the production market. As soon as I pulled it out of the box it became one of my favorites from Albion. For a sword of its size it exhibits excellent handling qualities and the fit and finish is typical Albion. It's a keeper.

Hey Patrick, good to see you over here. Have you posted any pics on myArmoury? I'll have to go poke around...Sounds like a solid piece.

Sorry Aaron, no photos as yet. My home confuser imploded a few weeks ago and I'm posting from my issued lap top, so pics are a no-go for now. Bill Grandy received his at the same time and he's posted a few photos.

That purple just makes you GREEN with envy, doesn't it? :lol:
I can't blame you, though. That purple is REALLY quite striking.

I have to agree. It just seems to work for the sword.
