This really is a stunning design, I too think it would look great with the Earl or Regent blade. I don't know about the XVIII bare blade, it's a little small and doesn't look as good as the next gen blades. Ernie could certainly improve the blade, but at 42 inches it's pretty short. If shortened even more it could make for a good side sword blade though.

It'll definitely look better with a longer hollow ground blade, but I'm just going on what's actually available on the bare blade market. If I can convince DSA to sell me one of their gothic longsword blades, that might also be the ticket.

I actually have an Albion XVIIIb(this one is from the Regent, not the Earl) moat blade that's going to be perfect for this. It's already heat treated and ground, the only problem were some nicks in the blade; it took about 20 minutes to reprofile the blade and bring the secondary bevel back behind the nicks.

alinkinthechain: I also do love Boston. I've traveled a bit and nothing feels as wonderful as that city to me. I'm lucky to live nearby Nov 12, 2024 15:28:16 GMT

txhighlander: Boston might be my fav. So much history, and clean! and great food. New York was cool for a day to see iconic landmarks Nov 7, 2024 17:00:22 GMT

blackngold: Dallas is the worst place in the country to fly in and out of. High winds can delay your flight by 6.5 hours and leave you sitting on the tarmac for an additional 2 (ask me how I know)... Oct 31, 2024 2:21:20 GMT
