I like it...a very unique version of an old favorite. Congrats Bill.
Someday, somehow, I will own a piece of Jeffrey's work.

Love that sword...
That's a wide fella too, which is nice.

I first saw this sword on Jeffrey Robinson's website. I was shocked to do a search and find it on this site, owned by Swiger!?! LOL!
For me, this sword has the ultimate blade shape with a blade base wider than the Albion Great Sword and Baron. The hilt is incredible. The grip spacer is a very nice touch. I can honestly say, this sword would be the ultimate medieval type sword for me. I will own a version of this sword somehow, some day.

It is a nice sword. Before I left Germany, Lukas was kind enough to give it a good sharpening.

I am a little surprised (probably shouldn't be) how much love this sword gets. When I first talk to Jeffrey about it I wanted a working version of the Islidor blade from LotR. I just was/am so impressed with the blade shape I just had to have a working one. The pommel was straight up a nod to the Albion Discerner . I do really like the bronze ring you put on yours, wish I would have thought of it.

Hey Alexander, if you really wanted one, you could get a bronze grip ring put on yours if you wanted to send it back and pay for a new grip.

I bought some swords awhile ago and they came in a battered old box with multiple layers of postage labels, and I saw your APO address on one of them. I was stationed in Japan with and APO. It must have been a well-traveled box.

I have also received many recycled boxes over the years.
The APO address was great to get stuff from the States and my German address for all the European stuff.

Wow. The sword community is small.

Man what a beauty. The long fuller is so rarely seen in anything other than one-handed swords. Awesome piece.

I had recently bought a Jeffrey Robinson version he had used an Albion blade with the same hilt. Did not need both and the handling was better for me with the Albion bladed version.
