Sword review of Darksword Armory's "The Guardian"

Overview of

Overview of "the Guardian" by Darksword Armory

QUESTION: My question is simply if you will be doing a review on Darksword Armory's "The Guardian." I'm asking this because I've been looking for a two-handed sword that is strong and durable, but that also maintains a shorter and stockier build.

From the reviews of the other swords offered by Darksword Armory, I don't think I'll be disappointed in the level of function. I'm also planning on buying the sword (if I do) through www.ArmsofValor.com becuase of the customization options, FYI.

If you would, just let me know what your thoughts are on the sword, if you aren't planning on a review any time soon...

ANSWER: Yes indeed, a review is being prepared as to go live on the site as I type this email, probably should be up within the next 2-3 days.

So I'll save the info until then! ^_^

Best,

- Paul

A little disappoitned.
by: Anonymous

I bought this sword through their eBay auctions.

There's a major cosmetic problem with the throat of the scabbard. It's too wide, standing out quite a ways from the guard, and the metal throat is misaligned on one side causing a real eyesore.

Also, this sword is very heavy and the center of balance is too far out for a sword as heavy as this one. It's a real wrist breaker.

I also paid 35 dollars to have this sword sharpened. Mine arrived unsharpened. Rather disappointed. :/

As far as structural integrity goes, I'm not sure because I can't do cutting tests with an unsharpened sword, and I'm not going to dry-handle something this heavy and unbalanced. It's got a very rigid blade, that's about all I can tell you.
