Great video, very informative, if you haven't done it already I think it would be amazing if you could make a video about the best stores/artisans that sell swords & similar weapons. Bella!
Cool! I was very pleasantly surprised with Fabri Armorum's thrusting arming sword, I'd suggest checking it out as well. Don't own one, but kind of wish I'd gone that way.
Thanks for the review! I am currently trying to get into HEMA and I search long for good sword makers that are affordable. Sigi looks good, but I wish it looked more authentic to a real sword instead of a dedicated sparring weapon. Did you perhaps also test out any other swords? My current favourite I am considering buying is from Viktor Berbekucz, safety is important for me and I read quite some positive reviews about them. Did you check them out or got others you like?
I tend to divide things, if I want a realistic sword I either buy a sharp or a replica not meant for sparring. I never tried VB extensively so I couldn’t direct you well on this.
