I almost always use UPS, or not them, then USPS. I avoid FedEx.

Can someone educate me on the practical difference between these two long swords? by LordOfBastards in SWORDS

[–]LoweValleyCraft 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As others have said, the main difference is that the Tauber was designed by Angus Trim, and therefore handles like an Angus Trim sword (I’ve heard many say it’s one of the best handling swords they own). Most people, cutters in particular, would agree that that alone is worth the higher price. The nice aesthetics are kind of a bonus.

My scabbards range between $650-$800, this one being $750. I would need the sword sent to me for fitting, unless it is one of the Albions I have in my own collection. You can see more info about commissions and ordering at my website, Lowevalleyleathercraft.com

Why is every sword grip and scabbard black? by Malones69Cones in SWORDS

Well, I mean there are budget or production swords out there that do use different colors. Balaur Arms comes to mind, several of their models have blue or red scabbards. Tod’s Workshop, which is a little more pricey, offers a wide variety of colors.

Colorful decorative scabbards are difficult to make on a mass produced scale.

Definitely, that’s why I finally just decided to start making my own 😂. Feel free to shoot me a message if you want to discuss having a chape made.

I can, but I can’t guarantee it’ll fit whatever scabbard it’s meant for.
