OK let me just be clear. Archangel was great to work with and was VERY accommodating. The items were exactly what they looked like online and he even did some special wraps at no extra cost. the blades are heavy and sharp. All that said I think I would prefer a more traditional blade handle and in order to make it fit my ranger gear I will either need to outsource the blade sheath or make it myself as the options he had don't really fit my style. Again this is not a knock on him or the workmanship so I just want to be clear about that.
