I noticed these videos on Skallagrim's channel a while back, very interesting. I guess many on this forum have already seen them but if you haven't, these videos are quite interesting. As is mentioned in the video the sword is a Neil Burridge budget khopesh. I was surprised with how well the bronze sword performed, and how sharp it was. It would certainly be interesting to own a Neil Burridge sword one day.

Very cool! Not often that you see Bronze pieces reviewed, and I've always loved Neil's work. Thanks for sharing!

I keep forgetting about Neil Burridge, and really need to get one of his swords someday. Haven't seen these videos, I'll check 'em out.

Don't tease me, I still don't have all the steel stuff I want, I can't afford bronze mania now...

My favourite is the Urnfield sword. I can't afford it now, but someday perhaps. Now that I've seen how sharp work-hardened bronze blades can get, I realize how effective these short, wide leafblades must have been. Especially against the lightly armoured warriors of the day.

Another bronze sword test, this one was already shown on myArmoury a few days ago, but since SBG was down at the time I couldn't link to it.
