Well after reading numerious threads both here and on other forums, I finally decided to spring for the KC Celtic. First impressions were, this is one beautiful sword, light and quick, and very sharp!! Made a little video........

I've been eyeing one of those. Now I'm sold.

I doubt you will regret it a remarkable sword IMHO. Here is a pic with a G2 Pompeii Gladius, which slices well also, but left me wanting, of the two I'd take the Celtic That said I'm probably going to order a KC Gladius for comparison.

Man that's gorgeous.

It looks very rugged too.:thumbup:

Yeah it really is a jewel.
I was looking in Richard F. Burtons, Book of the Sword, chapter 13, there is a sketch of one like it, very close in detail.

Yes indeed.

Being 1/4 Scot and 1/4 Welsh, it very much appeals to me.

I went school in Aberdeenshire Scotland back in the early 70s one of my all time favorite places.
