Good evening, everyone!
I was wondering if anyone could tell me who the maker was for the smallswords in Chivalry Bookshelf's Highland Swordsmanship? I searched all over the forums, because I thought that I'd read about them being mentioned, but I couldn't find it anywhere. All that I know is that it wasn't A&A, nor Darkwood, nor Fiocchi.
Thanks!

Hello Geoff,
The smallswords featured in the book are made by Kevin Dougherty of the "Tri Cities Academy of the Sword."
http://www.tcasfencing.com/fencing_supplies.htm
"Smallswords W Kevin Dougherty has been making and using period correct smallswords for fencing. He uses a 1730s French pattern hilt mounted on a 30" epee blade (custom sizes available). Hilts are typically aged and blades are blued but a polished and buffed steel hilt is available as an option Prices range from $190.00 to $275.00"
