I recently purchased an Albion bare hand and a half blade, and I'm currently searching for places where I can find sword guards and pommels separately, to avoid having to pay extra for a custom set made if I can. So far I've only found Printed Armory, which I'm 50/50 on, and Darksword, which has a nice Ranger set but a rather heavy pommel, esp. considering that their Ranger sword weighs a whopping 5 and a half pounds. I've been searching for other places I might be able to look, but so far no luck. Any pointers?

I think everyone who has done any serious sword modifications has run into the same problem as you're having. In the past, I've modified guards and pommels from Hanwei Tinker swords (left over from being replaced by Printed Armory furniture courtesy of of LG Martial Arts). I've purchased unfinished rough guard/pommel castings from Arms and Armor. I've commissioned pommels from custom sword makers breaking into the business (and willing to do smaller jobs). I've also had some luck buying sword parts from the Classified section of this forum, and the various sword enthusiast Facebook groups.
