Excellent reviews! Even I never thought that such words could make me drool so over Type XV singlehanders!

Thanks for taking the words literally out of my mouth Jeremiah S. I'm now drooling over that Albion
Castellan Sword thanks to that excellent review by Bill G.!

Excellent reviews all!

I have a Castellan (I think I received the first one they made) and I give it the highest recommendation. I bet that Edward IV would have loved to have one of these swords at Towton. I think that acute though tough point would have been very good at penetrating those armor seams and gaps.

Good reviews as always but for the future I would like more measurements of blade thickness and taper. BTW How does one use beeswax to shrink leather to fit grips as done by A&A?
