Landsknecht Emporium's Dietrich arming sword is their first foray outside of messers and messer-adjacent products. Retailing for €340 - approximately $390 at time of upload - this sword sits at the very upper limits of the budget range, or perhaps the very bottom of the midrange. It's available in three different versions - sharp, "thin blunt," and "thick blunt." I discuss the intended use for each of these versions in this review, as well as go over them in close detail, compare how they handle, and do some cutting with the sharp.
