Buying a Sword
Sir Edward:
Why choose? Do both! :)
But yeah, I know what you mean about the price. It's pretty sobering once you get used to the idea of paying for Albions, and look at one that's only $900 and think "Hey, that's not bad"...
Dragonlover:
And how much may your life be worth? I'll take my fast-blades anytime....

Sir Ancelyn:
My sword arrived in the mail yesterday!
I bought a Paul Chen sword from Iron City Blades on ebay this week.

It is a two handed bastard sword (although I could fit a third smaller hand between my two and not be crowded out); full length 50 and 3/8", blade length 39", full tang, carbon steel. I'm not sure I like the blacking they put on the guard and the pommel, but the weight and length feel comfortable. Probably not the most historically acurate blade I could get, but for the price I'm happy. This makes sword #1. :-D
