I received my 2 handed Templar sword last week and was so amazed by the quality and beauty of the
Sword. It is well balanced and has a great
feel to it. Darksword Armoury has exceptional bladesmiths .The sword scabbard and interlaced belt were also well crafted. Will definitely be buying another sword. was also
I've been purchasing Darksword Armory blades since their 1060 steel days and have always been impressed by what they craft. I live in Edmonton and typically make in person visits to their forge in Montreal. I recently noticed an Ulfberht Viking pattern welded sword (AKA folded steel or Damascus) in their sale section which checked two boxes for me; I didn't have a Viking style and I wanted at least one Elite series pattern welded sword. This sword was their usual blend of 1095, 5160, L6 and O1 steels and some of them had distorted slightly during manufacture. Given that they harden, temper and quench at different temperatures it's not surprising that some fail Darksword's stringent quality control. So I bought it and I'm happy and it's a magnificent work of art.
HOWEVER, this review isn't about the sword, it's about Eyal Azerad, the owner. I've always purchased directly from him and his courteous demeanour and professionalism has always impressed me. The sword was reg. $2542 on sale for $1681 and the advert referred to the heat treat failure resulting in a slightly warped blade, which was not noticeable in the ad picture. I called Eyal to find out just how warped they were and would he be able to pick out the best one (there were only 3). He indicated that he'd be reluctant to sell any of the remaining blades as they were so far beyond their QA/QC standards but that he'd grab the best one and send me pictures. The distortion was so slight that I told him yup, I want it. He then reduced the sale price a further 50%.
It's hanging on the wall right beside my reading chair, a place of honour no other sword has merited (even tho they're all gorgeous and cut like a laser).
I'm 72 y/o and I can state with confidence that Eyal is the most honourable and ethical business owner I've ever dealt with.
All I can say is wow. This sword is absolutely beautiful , is extremely well crafted , and by far the best quality sword I have ever owned. Its just simply beautiful. Its exactly everything I could’ve imagined it would be. If you’re looking for a period piece from the Crusades , this is exactly what you want to get. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I have my first real sword from Darksword. Very nice well put together. It is sharp and Doug Merchida says.
"It will Kill"! Looks great on my wall!
I love the original Excalibur film, and have an abiding fascination with Arthurian myth. This is a dream sword for me, and it is a dream. Personal I prefer this versions to the film. The sword handles beautifully, it ha excellent balance. The distil taper adds great handling. The wire wrapped handel is really comfortable to hold, its so beautifully executed. The strength and quality of the tempering is outstanding. The overall fit and finish is flawlessly... The sword is pretty close to perfection. I love Darksword armorys blades, they are some of the best I have ever come across. The strength of these swords is of the highest quality.
I messaged Darksword because I love their Charlemagne sword, but wandered if they could do me a versions with a 33" blafe. They were fantastic at replying to my email and sent me pictures to ask my opinion on the blades they had and could use. The sword they made for me is brilliant. The handel and balance are really nice. The fit and finish is wonderful. And as always the quality of the blade is incredible. I love Darksword! Im always impress and please with what they produce. The scabbards are awesome as well, I've easily finished them off to add my own spin; before they offered the different colours, i used to dye the leather myself, and its easy to add studds, tooling, or chapes ect. Darksword are easily some of the best swords out there! And definitely the best in this price range.
I received my Anduril and I am blown away it’s Gorgeous perfection I’m a big fan of Lord of the Rings and this is my favorite sword, great job Darksword it’s awesome five Stars fit finish bar none and sharp cut my finger on it.
Bought this sword a year ago, it’s much better than the original I love the Gondorian white tree on the pommel and guard very beautifully done, and balanced well, sharp is an understatement doesn’t quite match the one in the movie but fantastic love it!
Some minor cosmetic issues (Pommel) other than that it's a well made sword. Excellent balance and handling. Feels like a feather in my hand. Recommended.
