Finding Darksword-Armory!!!

It started back when I was doing Sleepy hollow designs for Factory X. We were making The Hessian`s sword. Only in a wall hanger. I wanted a Full battle ready carbon steel sword like this. I was also a big LOTR`s fan as well. I just happend to get on Ebay and put in the search area. LOTR swords..

Many Swords with this name came up. I looked around page after page. Some had pics by the listings. I came across a elf sword pic?? I checked it out. It said Darksword-Armorys handmade swords Battle ready,oil hardend blades for 250.00 made in Canada. I then opened up this sellers other items. They had several swords and such to pick from. Well I then Found there Boromir sword. I really liked this sword from the LOTR`s film.. A shorter sword with a wide blade. My kind of sword!

Now I`m not one to just buy things with out really checking them out first. I emailed DSA and got a reply from the Owner Eyal.. He took the time with more than a few emails to answer all my questions about his swords and how they are made, I Even asked if he could make me a Battle ready Hessian sword..

After feeling good with his replies to my many questions I bought his Boromir sword. Well. When It came I was very happy. The Boromir was just what I wanted. Well made,Strong and NOT a wall hanger like the others.. I could not wait to review it.

The sword held up better than I would have thought. I was already looking at DSA`s site to pick out my next sword from them. I sent my review to Paul. I told Paul how their swords were made and Paul really took a good look at them, the rest is history. I now own three of DSA`s swords and have used them over and over again.

All they have needed is cleaning and oiling to keep them in tip top shape. They all have held up very well. I`m a Big fan of there swords and know I will buy more from DSA down the road. Thanks DSA and Eyal for making the kind of swords I like.. Strong,tough and made for battle.. Thanks for your time. Jason Woodard
