Look what just happened on the Higgins armoury database: high res pictures instead of thumbnails sized foggy shots (or close to high res, the bastard sword pic below is 1600*1200). It's a wip apparently, as these are not to be found on each item, quiet a treat nonetheless. I don't have time to go through all of these but I surely will...

For your viewing pleasure, two examples below:

Thanks for the head's up.

It's odd that as of now their database still shows items that have been recently sold from their collection.

Thanks for the link. There's some great stuff on there!

Quite a complex hilt for such an early sword.

I am not sure how new the images are but I had been using the Forgeng pages for some years now.. There was a recent gallery brought to bear in a thread at Vikingsword

That type XIV I posted above was not here a month ago for sure...I had been looking for a decent picture of that one for some time now, checking there quiet regularily.,,so there are some changes for sure...to what extend I can't say.
