Well as far as the name I cannot help you, but I would like to tell you that I think that is one very beautiful sword and that I very much admire it, the amount of curve in the blade is just exactly right to my personal taste. A real eye catcher! Was it a long wait? When did you get it? Now that is a worthy sword to show off with pride!
Happy Collecting,
Bob

I generally prefer to let a weapon reveal its own name to me, if it is worthy of having one. But if you'd like a suggestion, how about Kinados? It's Greek for fox, but can also denote a cunning rogue. Odysseus was described using that word more than once in The Iliad. Your saber looks swashbuckling enough for it.

Yeah let the sword name itself. When I first cut with my Albion Knight, I was totally caught off gaurd by the ring of the blade after the strike. Having never cut before, it never occured to me that a sword could sing. I haven't named my sword per se, but every time hear her sing, the name Callas pops into my brain. I wouldn't intentionally name her, but I think she's trying to tel me something. Admittedly, I'm completely insane.
