What do you mean by " permanent assembly" ?
Cheers,

Sonny: Beautiful sword, though for some reason as I look at the photo I can't help visualizing it without the notches and trefoil cutouts. I think I just dig a simpler aesthetic.
David: I think that we can safely assume that "permanent assembly" means peened over, so no hex-nut for breaking down into components.

Not assuming anything.
Peened or red locktight?

I have been hoping that Valiant would start assembly with a peen for some time now. I don't mean the standard line that they offer, but rather swords from the signature series. If "permanent assembly" equals a peen then I will be looking at purchasing one of their swords in the near future. Either way I have always loved the look of their blades.
