I love the bastard swords. I have one on my short list, but I have about 2 more Claymores and a basket hilt I want to get before I take the plunge...maybe. I dunno. I'm pretty weak-willed and sorta want one. It might look pretty boss hanging on the wall over my desk. Business write off, right? 
Also, looks like it's time to make some banana bread

Looks like this one was/is available mostly in Europe. I've never seen it before either.

I bought it off the exchange 5 or 6 years ago , I believe it's long discontinued model I haven't seen another one anywhere . It's definitely one of the best made one's from Windlass I've handled .

Very nice! I have the Agincourt from the BattleCry line. The all black coating is a nice touch to keep it rust free. I like the double fullers on yours. How does it handle? The Agincourt is super light and agile, almost too much so. Not a lot of blade presence, especially for a two handed weapon.
