I have three swords,one of which is a pretty accurate rendition of the Alexandria sword.
The other two,are an arming sword from Swordier, and a Brazil nut pommel sword i had made for me,are the ones I am curious about.
Is the brown handled sword,the Brazil nut sword,an accurate medieval sword?
Is the Arming sword accurate?
The blade on the Alexandria sword is 45" long and 6 mm thick,yet is still thin to me. What thickness must I specify an Alexandria sword be made to? At the hilt? Two inches from the point?
 
The images do not work. You probably have these in in a private fb group. Share your profile, make your profile public and make a post on your wall and link your profile here.

Or, the standard tips for posting images

Third party hosting, or pony up and attach 'em.

Whippy Alexandria? Or stout enough.

Check out Kult of Athena, as they have lots of specs and swords. For instance, the Balaur Arms example is listed as a bit more but you are going to see some variation.

The swordier arming sword and the Brazil nut sword are very stout and sharp. The Alexandria is 6mm thick tapering to around 4.75 mm a couple inches from the point. It's stout enough to kill with it but I would like for it to have been made with a little more backbone, so an honest answer to your comment is that it's a bit whippy at the end. I want the Alexandria sword from Darkhorse armory. Someone else makes one too.
It was only 350$ for me to get made,so I guess you get what you pay for lol.

I'll try to post pictures up,but it kept denying me or not taking them.it could be so much simpler to post pictures couldntit??

Thanks for your response,I'll try to get the pics up.

First, you have to expect others to use and have an account on facebook

I am logged into facebook and see only this. Please read the posted advice at the top of the board.

That is what I see. If you are expecting someone to see your fb profile (or a post), you have to make it public.

Swordier is getting good marks and as you are on Facebook, look up the 'All Swords' and 'Sword Buyers Guide; groups

Sword Buyers Guide has a forum like this, where owners of these swords often discuss them and have better image interfaces. Flat out, don't expect folk to jump through hoops to have a discussion.

A reason to thin the foible is for mass distribution and ease of cutting at the forward point of rotation. The 6mm mark is about right for this sword type and the originals within that parameter. I don't quickly have data if it is a convex, or convex distal taper but your's is probably fairly linear, as a $300 sword is not going to be as thought out as an Albion's, which was developed with museum statistics.

It is a bit like guitars. One either grows into it, modifies it, or finds a different axe.
