Raven Arming Sword

Postby Jaron Bernstein » Mon Jul 18, 2005 1:39 pm

Hi all,

Got my Raven arming sword today. It has all the good points of Raven (very solid construction) and I was surprised to find, is exceptionally well balanced. It doesn't have the "baseball bat" feel of their longsword at all. Rather light and quick.

Sounds nice Jaron <img src="/forum/images/icons/smile.gif" alt="" />

I contemplated Raven some time ago but the two year waiting list turned me off. I went through enough with My Salamander Armory Bastard sword a few years back.

Good luck with your fine weapon!

Hi Jaron.

Are you referring to Raven Studios, the waster makers, or Raven Armouries in the UK, makers of fine steel swords?

I had a greatsword waster from them that I absolutely loved...until it was destroyed in a car crash. I'm quite fond of their stuff, actually.
