Customer Reviews
“…Super light and rewarding to use.” GregRapson6 3-31-15
“Construction standards are absolutely fantastic! Love the handle length and overall weight! This is a high-end product of which I would highly recommend. Arrived very quickly!” Cargarbathi 11-7-15
“It’s a really nice and sturdy red, I also enjoy that it’s built just above min specs so I don’t need to worry about them passing” Austin Smith 4-30-15
“… The profile on the sword is better, the handle is more comfortable, the foam gives hits better, it just looks better, the stabby is more cushioned, and it swings faster but hits just as solid. After the whole practice of fighting shields, spears, and blues, I could not be happier with this sword….” Maionese 4-24-15

6 stars. Everything you’d expect from a Gorg red weapon, but smaller. I’m new to Dagorhir and, candidly, owning one of these is a great way to start learning red technique. That said, I think it’s a fantastic weapon more generally and expect to use it regularly for aeons.

This is the only website I am going to buy my items from here on out. Great quality and perfect to sword play
Josh Stickney (verified owner) –
This is a fantastic weapon for learning red weapon fighting! Light enough not to slow you down yet heavy enough to land those solid red shots. I’ve borrowed bigger reds before but never had as much success as with this min-red! Highly recommend!
Chris Craft –
Unbelievably well constructed, solid, and balanced for its size. I love this sword. Gorg, you did an amazing job crafting this thing. It survived Siege practically unscathed, through the rain, and the abuse. Thank you so much!
Quentin Waitukaitis –
Absolutely stunning weapon. Strong construction and light materials makes this hit harder and faster than you can believe. Shield walls don’t stand a chance, and it’s lightness offers you the mobility you need to get out of bad situations quick. 10/10

“I gotta say, I’m in love with that 50″ greatsword, so I’m gonna want another one at some point soon. I really want a 6′ glaive too, so I’ll order one from you at the same time.” Raymond Lee
