Albion Sword - The I.33

Albion Swords is a premier manufacturer of historically accurate, museum-quality sword reproductions. Based in New Glarus, Wisconsin, the brand was founded with a commitment to reviving the authentic craftsmanship of European medieval blades. The sword shown in the image is known as 'The I.33,' a reproduction modeled after the weapons found in the Royal Armouries MS I.33, the world's oldest known manual of sword and buckler combat.

Albion's manufacturing process is unique, blending high-end CNC technology for precision with labor-intensive hand-finishing and assembly. Every blade is heat-treated to historical specifications and finalized by skilled artisans to ensure the balance and feel match those of original museum artifacts. The brand remains privately held by its original founders, continuing to operate out of their American workshop to maintain strict quality control and craftsmanship standards that have made them a gold standard in the historical European martial arts (HEMA) and collector communities.
