We've hinted around about this for a while, so it is finally time to give you folks a preview of what we will be coming out with over the next year... More detail will follow as these swords are developed and put into production.

Comments appreciated!

Best,

Howy

:eek:

More stuff I must have. Howard, I should just arrange for my paycheck to be transferred directly to you. :p

Excellent!!! Truly excellent!!!

:D

Howy... these are EXACTLY what I have been needing... er... looking for.

I'll be getting AT LEAST 3 of these... must have the longswords and the rapier. You are closing nearly every gap I have!

Mike... you're going to be busy taking orders on these. In fact... I'll be in touch, but you can log me in for these now!

Howy-

I was so excited I forgot 2 important questions.

What is the deposit on these - $150?

Can we start lining up? I mean... can we place pre-orders yet?

Looking forward to these, Howy!

I've been waiting for these. I'll have a Liechtenauer, and perhaps an Epée de Guerre.

I'm almost sorry I bought a SL Bastard. :)

You guys just keep amazing me! Thank you, thank you! :D

Thank you so much! All I can say is this is what I was waiting for.

Look very good.

Can't wait to see them when they are finished.

BTW some of the links on the page seem to direct to other swords right now instead of more detail on the sword in question.

Oooo... :eek: :cool: :D :!:

I see where a lot of my disposable (ha!) income is going to be heading.

Hey, these are Albion Marks... do they count towards the collector's club? I can see myself selling off swords to buy six of these alone!

The Meyer and Marxbruder (great name!) are must haves for me!

Hey Howie,
FYI, the link for the Meyer at the moment goes to the Baron's description.

Really like the looks of 'em. One little suggestion, though - the rapier master's name is spelled Capo Ferro, not Cappo-Ferro. :)

Fall 2005 !!!! I cant wait so long!

Ciao
Alberto...

Very nice stuff here, as usual. I'm pleased to see a philosophy here that, if it isn't new, is at least new to me. That is, the idea that the sword should feel the same as a sharp without actually looking exactly the same. In swordsmanship it would seem that such a philosophy is preferable to designing a similar looking sword that handles like a boat anchor. And yet, the sword forms themselves are still clearly recognizable. Nice work on this batch.
