    good overall craftsmanship. fittings on scabbard and belt are not period, and I the sharpening left a wavy edge to the blade, hence the 4 instead of five stars. handles well. grip is sufficient for 1 adult hand, only by gripping the pommel would I dare consider this a bastard sword. not bad for the price, but i snagged it on sale.

    The sword itself is well made, im no expert but I feel that the metal grain should run the length of the blade rather than the width for strength, and though it is considered a bastard or hand an half sword, the handle is made for a good one handed long sword, other than that the sword is great well made, and put together properly still a good sword

    My favorite Windlass sword. Rewrapped the grip and just love the way it handles. Good blade and solid fittings.

    This sword is great! Solid feel, strong blade, not whippy and grip is comfortable for me. Sheath and belt are beautiful. Blade is wicked sharp.

    grip is a little narrow and blade was just a slight bit whippy for me.
