I noticed that Christian http://www.christianfletcher.com/ has a new limited edition up on his web site the Huntsman. It has a Albion blade this time. Cool.
Between the Redeemer still being made and the Ranger King sold out I think Christian is going to have a backlog into 2005. Not that I am complaining. I am a big fan of his work, in fact I have a custom sword on order now. This looks like yet another excellent piece from a great artist.

I guess it is the blade from the Crecy?

Guess it shows the value of specialization.

I would agree the blade looks like the Crecy to me also.

This is indeed the Crecy blade, though I'm not opposed to putting this furniture on other blades, provided the blademaker feels the pommel weight is appropriate to the blade in question.

Ooo, will it work for the Phat Bastard? (AT 1517)

When I saw this, I knew I had to get one.
I've been considering the Crecy for a short while now and am glad it is the same blade being used in the Huntsman. Even without knowing about the Crecy component, I was still attracted to to it. 
I have one reserved for me. Gotta send in my deposit
