View Larger Image

This sword is based on the heirloom sword of the Scottish Lindsay family. The original was passed down through the generations from it's believed forging in 1072 until it was buried with a family member in 1683. Before this time a painting of the sword was commissioned, and that painting was then handed down in it's place. An interesting feature of this sword is that is appears to be the inspiration of the famous Excalibur sword depicted in the 1981 film of the same name. Though no one is sure how or when the designers of the film had come across a picture of the painting then in a private collection. Either as a historic piece or a top quality movie replica this sword is superb. Features all the attention to detail and high quality standards Albion is known for. The hand ground blade is made of differentially tempered high carbon steel with a deep central fuller, razor sharpened to perfection. The hilt features hand polished silicon bronze fittings, and a twisted German silver wire-wrapped grip with German silver ferrules.
