A simply stunning blade and scabbard. The workmanship and finish are excellent, as are the balance and detailing. All delivered with the excellent service, support and comms always provided by Dan and GVA. Bought this blade as a 21st gift for my son and it will surpass all his expectations - a thing of pure beauty ;-D
