Hiya Nathan,

Since I don't have a set of calipers,a set of accurate specs. will be difficult, but I'd dare say the the Albion blades
that I was fortunate to handle at Atlanta are a bit more spot on. The double fullers that start roughly 1 1/2" from the guard & run 23 1/4" on the back edge of the blade are nicely done. Taper seems true to form, except the last 5" to the tip where they have sharpened the back edge as well, making the tip a lttle whippy.
Initial test cuts were a great pleasure as pickle chipping a milk jug was almost effortless. I cut through a medium thickness card-board tube with very little effort or power needed, so this sword has a very keen edge to it.

POB is 2 1/8" from the guard and the COP roughly 23" from the guard.
This sword basically is a joy the handle- IMO - Armour Class has done a great job with this, very pleased.


Bill
