A $205 longsword with a touch of Fantasy! Fidestisan sword reviewed

Описание: #sword #review #longsword

This budget sword by Fidestisan, costing $205, is available to order on Amazon. While not particularly representative of any historical type, it does take some cues from historical swords, as well as some inspiration from Lord of the Rings.

At this low of a price point, there are always going to be compromises made when designing and producing a sword. What are they in this sword, and do they still render this sword effective, or should you pass it by and look for something else? In this review, I go over it in close detail, do some backyard cutting, and compare it to another sword that is roughly similar in price. I identify a few areas that could be improved, and finally give my opinion on who I think this sword would appeal to the most.
