Albion Hospitaller
Sir Ulrich:
Thats a good sword you have there. Normally i'm not much into wheel pommels but the disk shaped one looks quite good. Though once we meet up again i'll have to see how it handles in comparison to my Ritter. Both the Ritter and Hospitaller have the same blade type. That sword should be good well into the 13th century as well, so pretty much you can use this if you ever decide to do the 13th century. Type XI swords are rare though so I'm not sure how common they were but personally I like them, even more than I do Type X swords.

This thread has made me realize that I don't think I've ever met anyone who wasn't impressed by an Albion sword. Even for people not particularly fond of swords at all, all the effort they put into getting it right is not lost on anyone who holds one.

Well I do early 13th, late 12th, and am slowly moving into late 13th(with my greaves,cuisses, and surgarloaf, I am late 13th as it is)

Just many that complain about the price.
Sir William:
Albions are pricey, but I can't complain. Once you learn about swords and start making comparos between the Albion and anything from a lower price point - you begin to understand the why of it.
