Has anyone here had a chance to play with -- or better yet, actually use -- the Del Tin 5166 sidesword? I got to handle one at a Renn Faire this past weekend, and was quite impressed. Being a faire, I couldn't really swing it around, but the balance and weight felt quite right. Del Tins have gotten lighter and more wieldy recently, and the blade on this one had a nice amount of flex too, out in the last third of the blade where it's supposed to be. Also, it was beautiful. The official Del Tin photos really don't do it justice.

That is a new model, right? Below, a picture from Del Tin's website -
