UPDATE: Added the Brescia Spadona Mind writing a review or giving the short impressions here? It'll be two years before mine arrives- I'm trying to keep up the excitement so I don't spend more money on other swords Not a whole lot I can say at this point in time. I sent it off to Zach Suttles to have a scabbard made for it pretty shortly after receiving it. It's still with him. It's got a really wide crossguard that makes it deceptively imposing. Fit and finish is about what you'd expect from Albion, i.e. top tier. After I get it back, I'm gonna have an acquaintance give it a good sharpening. The handling is such that it'll be in the running for being one of my competition cutters. |

You have a excellent taste and your Principe XVIII is a thing of beauty.
Thanks for sharing!

UPDATE: Added the Brescia Spadona Mind writing a review or giving the short impressions here? It'll be two years before mine arrives- I'm trying to keep up the excitement so I don't spend more money on other swords As someone who owns it myself I consider it the best handling longsword albion makes, most others who have owned it usually feel the same way. As quite a few mentioned on the forums here in the past as well. To me it feels like the crecy but with a longer grip, and with a slighter closer POB. So more ergonomic and comfortable and a bit more agile. But the Crecy is an amazing handling sword to be compared to as well. You will 100 percent not be disappointed. |

Well, that kind of blows. Should probably find a better image hosting site than a random Discord channel.

Hope I haven't kept you all waiting too long.
Thread has been updated with pictures as, for the first time since November, all of my swords are in my possession.
