Description:
Lovingly dubbed the "Falmessertana" the Eldoris Messer is a collaboration between Mr. Eldoris Gardner and Ryan Sword to create a functional, yet affordable back yard cutter. Borrowing from several popular designs, this sword combines the cutting ability of the katana with the superior balance of an European bastard sword. The desire when producing this sword was to have an affordable, durable blade capable of performing not just as a chopper, but to perform technical cuts as well. Form follows function in this design, with a razor sharp edge, as well as a false edge running 9" along the back of the blade. The combination of a distal taper and a half fuller bring the balance very close to the hand and makes this sword feel light and agile. Many long sword techniques (as well as true messer techniques) use the guard as a vital part of the arsenal. The one piece guard draws from the Messer style ring guard. It is simple, yet highly functional providing optimal protection for the hand. Many people come to the sword hobby wanting to have a "real sword" and having to compromise between what they want, and what they can afford. You don't have to compromise between balance, weight, material quality, cutting ability and durability. This edge is a good compromise between sharpness and durability allowing the user to perform draw/push cuts with ease but resisting rolling on med/hard targets. You asked the question, here is your answer. Now go cut something!

Notes:
1) The sword will go with a free sword bag and spare Mekugies(bamboo nails).
2) The display stand and packing box aren't included.
3) Our products are 100% handmade, so specification varies slightly from sword to sword. We appreciate your understanding.
