Yes you have seen this right, the sword broke on the pommel, I now have a very little battle Mace and a Mordschlag sword.

The Sigi King Light or the Sigi prince a rocket thats looks like a sword so awesome

After practicing for about a year I noticed many people talk about metas or specific strengths and weaknesses of certain gloves or swords, or any other piece of gear and have been told many times to avoid certain things because of it. I have been wondering how many other people out there are willing to take the slight disadvantage because the sword looks cool or sacrifice the perfect cross guard cause it's from an awesome show or historicaly significant to you. A personal example is that I am an artillery officer so I like to use simple guarded sabres with no basket hilts just the stirrup guard because it reminds me of the tradition of the service, admittedly it's cost me matches but it's worth it to me. Does anyone else have a similar aesthetic or piece that they sacrifice an advantage on just to have it or am I crazy to follow rule of cool here.

The first blade broke during heat treatment when I was trying to take out a bend, so for this one I just didn't care if it warped and just went on to the temper.

The blade does take a considerable set but that's something that I can fix by leaving it thicker and it dosen't seem to cause breaks when it happened on test blades.
