Would I buy such a cheap sword? NO Have they good swords? Yes, I think. But for that you will have to pay 700 and more....and for that money you'll find other and better swords. this is my opinion.

Look at Wiwingti He has the lowest prices on the market- and due to getting ripped of by ryansword lol (I think someone mentioned that....) What are you looking for specifically? Price? Geometry? Customization?

I did like the cuts through the metal cans though. "Can chop iron" became a huge catch phrase for a while. I'm sure it helped their various ebay IDs sell a ton (literally) of swords. I remember reading a thread here once that named the forge their stuff was coming from, but I can't remember which one it was. I don't think it was all bad though.
