The Waisted Grip version of the Albion Mercenary Sword is a short and handy hand and a half sword with a very stiff blade, primarily for thrusting, but pretty decent for cutting as well. This sword is one of the quickest types there is, as it follows your intentions at quicksilver like speed. Because of the very narrow point the spine can be made quite thick without the blade becoming cumbersome. This makes for superior stiffness and a very effective thrust.

The Albion Mercenary Sword features a sharpened high carbon steel blade heat-treated to a fine temper in the Albion Forge Shop. The waisted grip is of stabilized birch, wrapped with cord and covered with the highest grade vegetable-tanned calfskin. The guard and pommel are solid steel.

    I’m a strong guy and I’m telling you this isn’t a light sword like Albion advertises. The thing really demands that you keep the sword on its pivot points when throwing it forward. In that way, it’s really a sword for you really develop proper technique with because holding it without sitting at an angle (on those pivot points)… man, do you feel the weight of this blade. The thing has a mean thrust and a really great cut as well.

    It would actually benefit from the handle being 1 inch longer than it is somewhat short. The pommel shape with the octagonal edges really digs into your palm… even with gloves on so it would be better with a fishtail or a scent stopper like the Principe.

    That being said, this thing wants to really destroy your enemy. It’s a quality beast for sure!
