I stumbled across this a couple of days ago. I knew about the Anduril from about 7 years ago and the Orcrist from 4 years ago. Now they have the Boromir sword:

This one looks really good. I verified that the weight is 1.8 kg (3.9 lbs) rather than the other weight listed. I think the 5.5 lbs is for the total shipping weight with the custom fitted coffin shaped box.

This will never end, because I want more. More. Give me more. Give me more...

I have to go clean up the drool now...
	One who despairs in his powerlessness cannot change the winds of fate. The boy of prophecy will take up the dark sword... but - hate and anger, they are a double-edged blade. The day will come, when he bares his teeth against destiny.

Peter Lyon is a good smith. I just don't think they handle well given the stats (length-weight ratio).

I imagine this sword would handle somewhat similar to my A&A Edward III. Similar weight, with slightly shorter blade and closer balance point. And with a grip that would be comfortable for two hands which would be good, unlike the Edward III with its huge wheel pommel.
