While the reaction to batch 1 was mixed (mine was highly positive), I'm excited about Batch 2. I've been scrolling the online collection, trying to figure out what's in batch 2, and I thought I'd put my progress here. If anyone would like to chime in, I'd very much appreciate it. If I made a mistake on any of these, let me know. I'm not 100 percent on the parrying dagger or the basket hilt.
IX.1426 was at the top of my list when M. Easton polled for batch 2 picks, but looking at the lineup so far, I'm not sure if it's at the top rn.
MY experience with batch 1: I got a very good example of the 14th Century Arming sword. I bought it as a heavy use beater and believe it handles as well as high end piece. Because I got it as a beater, the fit and finish are of little concern for me, but I'd rank it half a grade above most Windlass swords. I view it as a munitions grade, high end sword.

The basket hilt looks very interesting wondering will the price be the same

I think basket hilt is the right one (unless RA has a very similar one), Matt recently showed it in "Do SWORDS go SCHWING like in MOVIES?" YouTube video: ![Basket Easton.jpg](//storage.forums.net/1694914/thumbnailer/WKVByaiMYetsCXXqOiGW.png)
