Anyone have any experience with this piece? In my search I have found very few reviews.
Legacy Arms swords also seem to be all over the map when it comes to finish levels. The one youtube review I found of this one looked great, but one I found of their hobbit sword looked like hot garbage.

I own this sword. Mine weighs 1240 g (almost 2 3/4 lbs, considerably more than the 2lb 2 oz listed on KoA). Point of Balance on mine is at 7.5 cm (3", further out than the 1" listed at KoA). KoA lists blade thickness as 4mm, but mine is 6.1mm by the hilt, and 4.8mm 5cm (2") back from the tip. Blade length is 54 cm, about the same as the KoA listing.It feels clunky in the hand to swing, not nimble at all. The fit and finish on mine is fine; I have no complaints. The fuller is ground evenly on both sides, there is a very small gap between the guard and blade, but blade is centered and in line with handle. It was not very sharp on arrival, and the edge ground slightly unevenly (I think it could be sharpened readily, though I have not yet done so, and have not used it for cutting).

I actually went and got one myself. Very similar experience to you. I plan on putting together a review soon. It's a pretty interesting piece.

I have one and like it well.
Will never well it, wore it at my Ren themed wedding!
Shorter so it didn't get in the way
