Don't forget to shop around.  Kult of Athena hands down has the best prices -- but if you like a sword and it's like $800, you can often find a cheaper version (on that site or a different one) that is similar still quite serviceable by a different maker (windlass, cold steel, etc).

You can also find reviews of many weapons online, and sometimes even destructive tests to see how tough they are.

Archery category added.  I'm a bit sparing when it comes to arrows because in the ideal situation, an arrow should be of a length proportional to your arm\draw length.  Also, many of the arrow sets I've seen appeared to come with machine made arrow tips.  Shamefur dispray!

Thank you.

My favorite CRPG weapon is the Knife. They don't have one.

Luckily, I already have an accurate replica. It's in the knife block in my kitchen.  :twisted:

irl something shorted on the shuttle and laika overheated and died within a few hours of liftoff and for a brief while one could look up to the stars and see a light shooting across the sky that was actually a warm dog corpse slingshoting about the earth at thousands of miles per hour which was arguably humanity's greatest achievement so far

Note that the Cold Steel Greatsword is NOT a flamberge as it lacks the "flam" (flame) or squiggly serrated blade.  So far, the flamberges that I have seen have been ornamental which I don't like.  I'm on the lookout for a legitimate flamberge though.

But there is?  It's not exactly identical to the crpg knife granted but there are a lot of knives or seaxs with those features.  I intended to add a more similar one later down the road.

Have never seen a Spathovaklion for sale but I'll try to find one.  The short broad sword looks fine indeed.  There have been a surprising number of reproductions for it so you have a nice selection and price range to choose from.

Shame Arms of Valour is no longer about.

Bought my Gen 2 swords from them, lovely. The cheapest is my favourite, a Gen2 waisted gladius, beautifully balanced and quick.

These were much better than some more expensive swords, bought a Kriegschwert Angus trim handmade sword and its so floppy its ridiculous. Like a stick of wet celery. Plus its grip is nowhere near big enough for both my paws however its quite nice 1h, its very light for a hand and a half blade. Well worth if you can trying out anything you are interested in, see if you can get there and handle a demo model.

Most replica swords from films etc are display only and worth avoiding. Dont buy if made from stainless steel unless you want for decoration only. The first sword I bought was a Narsil film replica, basically it would break very quickly versus a proper sword. Looks pretty though.
