I don't know rammy. My gen 2 hilt assembly seems pretty dang strong. The hanwei ones I have seen are pretty well done as well in general. The windlass...well some are good...other not so much...but hey, it's windlass, we expect this from them ![:P](//storage.forums.net/forum/images/smiley/tongue.png) . But yeah, I do agree with the sentiment there though. Strong blade means nothing if the hilt assembly is junk. Epoxy will wear down after many years. In many of the swords we find from the era, the hilt assembly is so tight that the pommel and cross are utterly intact from their original locations even though the wood grip has long since rotten away and the blade has snapped from years of rust.
