Really nice saber. I really like the simple, yet pretty aesthetic. Fits well in hand, handles well and KoA did a good job sharpening the blade (ships un-sharpened by default). My main and only complaint is that the cross-guard has been assembled somewhat miss-aligned. This defect does not prevent the blade to be sheathed in the fitted scabbard, and it’s not readily visible from a distance and doesn’t really affect blade alignment when swinging. To be frank, I haven’t noticed it for several days until I was doing some cleaning of the blade which made me look very closely at the base of the blade. From up close you can see the cross-guard is not perfectly parallel to the blade edge, but rather sits at a slight angle. This might just be a one-off assembly error, as all the other parts of the saber are well fitted and.
