Often paired together
A little heavy at just over 3lbs and the handle is a little big, closer to a hand and a half. Knowing this with the information presented however this is a great looking piece for the price and I was surprised at that with Deepeeka’s reputation.
These were my first two swords, so feel free to take my review with a good bit of salt. That said, these are brilliant swords! I love them. The ones I got had some faults, some rattling in the crossguard in one of them and they’re both slightly different sizes. One is noticeably lighter and shorter than the other one, but not by much and I kind of like it. The specifications section does say the weight is approximate though, and I probably just got two swords from opposite ends of the size variation spectrum. I’ve had them for a few months and I thoroughly enjoy using them. I’d rate them around 4.6, but I’ll round that up to 5.
Purchased based on Skalliagrim’s recommendation. Sword is straight, and handles great.
Sword is great and all the specifications are accurate. The grip is brown but the scabbard is black so it does look kinda weird when on the scabbard and it’s important to know that it isn’t technically an arming sword is length both in the hande and the blade are too long and are more accurately a “Hand and a Half Sword” so keep that in mind. However if that’s the type of sword you’re looking for this is a great option
This is my first sword, I just got this with the sharpening service. The edge is kinda sharp, not enough to shave hair or nothin but enough that I don’t really wanna be on the receiving end. The blade has a little bit of warping, enough that a sword expert would turn their nose up at it, and the finish on the blade has kindof a wooshy pattern but I think it’s from the scabbard, the inside of it has like points where it sticks and rubs against the material. I can’t get over how heavy this thing is though, it’s way heavier than I anticipated, but I guess idk what I expected really, but it almost feels more comfortable to hold it with two hands, so I guess it’s more in the bastard sword area? Idk. Pretty cool first sword for the price, I’m happy with it, next sword I get though I’m gonna definitely drop a little bit more money on it.
Very impressive for the price! Blade length is the same as Cold Steel’s hand and a Half sword but wider. “Fingering the Guard” is a breeze even with the sharpening service, they leave about a 2 inch ricasso which works really well with the angled guard for a sure and agile grip. When considering the heft of this blade, I find that grip technique necessary for quick and accurate strikes. Are there and cons? sure but mostly cosmetic if that! all said the sword looks like its been in a battle and left in a dusty armory for a few years, which again for the price is perfect for me since I already have gleaming shiny polished wall hangers. I recommend this sword but will only buy Deepeeka from Kult of Athena!
